Hi Guys!

[microman]

Name is Art libby. Live in South Portland, Maine. Been on this site now for about 2 months and just now found the New England forum. Led here by Earl320! Many thanks to him and this site for helping me out throuhg a VERY recent crisis. Check my posts for my saga. Too much to write again as my fingers are getting numb. 50 yrs old here and just recently divorced. So I bought my 97 Gambler 2100 w/Rude 225 FICHT. Like to be considered a member of this site too and gaining experiences here that I can shed on to others. I am the VP of Southern Maine anglers and have been targeting ONLY bass now for going on my 4th year now. Placed 4th last year out of 20 guys in my club. Doing ok for a beginner. So A big Howdy from Maine here to all!!!!

Welcome Art, I see you live local if you ever want to try some new water let me know.

You can get lost on this web site. Did you know that there is also a section for each state? That was the one that I had a hard time finding until it pops out and bites you. See you at the Rally...and welcome aboard the board

Welcome to BBC Art I've read your posts about your motor. Hopefully the rebuild wn't cost too much. Are you having it built to a 235? Maybe you'll beat Al after all

[microman]

No I tyhink just a honing will be the fix.....Maybe resleave one of the top cylinders. I just want this behind me now. Expensive lesson.

[microman]

So I take Al is the target to beat here on this site huh?? I talked with him and he's a great guy from what I gather. I'll let him rule the roost as I definately need some more seat time....FOR NOW!!! LOL

Art, Glad to meet you. I fished with a Southern Maine Bass club the last two years named Marshwood. I like alot of Maine water besides Cobbesee some I like are Moose,Kezar and Square pond ever fish any of those?

[microman]

Several times to all the above!! Good waters and some nice fish there too! Thanks for the welcome.

[Mac]

Let's not forget Sebago there are some serious largies in that water. Ask NH Phil about the string of smallies he got last year.

[microman]

Rather not mention that lake right now after blowing up my motor on Wed. But yes it has some awesume sallies.

Welcome aboard to the local page. You saying you toasted it on Sebago? thought it was still hard water up there?

[microman]

Western Shore side was open for about a 5 mile area. Open enough to do damage!! LOL

[cape cod basser]

those Fichts scare the heck out of me. Haven't heard of too many good ones around. Oiling issues for the crank bearings I thought.

[microman]

Gonna give em one more try with this rebuild. Then on to the E-Tech I guess.
