Thanks for the idea. I need a new cover too, so i could mount up some boat seats and then get a new custom cover made with socks on it to fit over the new seats. They probably won’t be that easy to take on and off, so i would just leave them on.

prayers sent.

Say i live up in north branch and we got dime to quarter size hail at my house, but 1 mile north had golf ball size and 4 miles north had 4.5 inch hail YES 4.5!!! No joke, that is in Harris,MN. They made national news with there hail damage. Knocked gutters and siding right off of houses and totally destroyed cars.I got lucky it didnt move south 4 to 5 miles or the truck i just got would have been a gonner. Its to long to fit in my garage.

yeah i called them and they told me to try and adjust my throttle linkage. they said maybe i needed more RRR’s to get the auger to spin properly. I think my engine was leaning out once it got really cold out. it seems to run fine. i played with it a little and i hope it stays running alright. Also the customer service at strikemaster was excellent!

yeah my collar bolt was still there, however it was about 2 turns loose,then i tried it on a pond by my house and it seems like it was just starving for a little more gas cause its colder out. i think that is what originally was causing the problem.so i think the clutches are still good, i called strikemaster and they said clutches aren’t common to go out.

thanks for the info, yeah im in north branch so i might have to head out there and see if they can fix it. Do you know if they can fix it on the spot or if i have to come back to pick it up?

if you don’t mind me asking where were you finding those 14+ crappies. I have been on green and had good luck on tip up northerns and smaller crappies, but they are hesitant to bite on green.
