AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stop it Gregg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL [sly]
I'm getting all excited too. It right here, fishing is back!!! I'm spending this weekend finishing up all my little projects, and i'm ready.
You should have seen the nasty foot oil in my bass boat. It was solid black last time I changed it. I'm going to have to keep an eye on that guy. I'm going to run it a couple times and change it; and keep repeating this process until the foot oil starts running out a little cleaner.

I know it's hard for you southern boys to comprehend, but ice out is a big time for fish and us. I'm not sure which. [crazy] Looking like the 18th, I won't be able to hold back as long as the ice is off. Keep an eye out Tom.

Na, no shavings. There's a little metalic flake on the plug, but nothing out of the ordinary. The oil itself is just dirty. I wonder how hard of a job it would be to tear down the foot and see what's up?

I've got to agree with Tom on this Bryan, something doesn't sound right. Glad to see you have another boat to run. Must be nice. LOL

[/url] Yea baby we're coming. 
] I keep the foot changed atleast twice a year. But, that motor is a 1994 I think, so it's well over 10 years old. But still, it shouldn't be that bad looking. I hardly ever even use that boat anymore anyways. I mostly use my big boat, unless the weather is calling for big swells, then i'll hit the river or something. I bet I don't use that boat once a month, if that much.
