    Felt good to be back on the lake again!!

    Finally got to take out my new to me Stratos 282.
    First time on the lake since this time last year when I sold my other boat.
    I ran the boat mostly but did go around and mark some of my old spots and found a few new ones too. Managed to catch 7 keepers with the best one Guesstimated at 6 1/2 lbs the other ran between 2 and 4 pounds.
    I will say that the evinrude trolling motor on the boat is a first class POS it will get change very soon!! The TM runs good but it flops up and down on the mount and dont turn worth a crap.
    Also I've learned that fishing on a Monday is very nice!!!!!!!!!! little to no boat traffic and only saw 1 jet ski and 1 skier, beats the heck out of a Saturday hands down!!
    Boat ran great but chine walks BAD at 60, I have a post in the Stratos forum on the walking issue if anyone want to "chine" in
