Thanks, guys. I'll get it going for next week. I hated to miss those good tides this week. Could you tell me if an outboard can be made to steer tighter? It's so loose that if I let go of the handle for just a second it will swing around and put me into a turn. I've never heard of any kind of an adj...

Thanks. It's at my son-in-law's house. I'll go to the store tomorrow and get some corrosion inhibitor. Is there anything good in a smaller can, like
a WD-40 can? I guess you'd spray it on, wipe it off then respray it?

I've let it sit for about three months, which I shouldn't have done. Pressing the starter button (after charging the battery) there's a 'crackling' sound of sparks but the starter doesn't engage. Any idea about what could be wrong?

Wakulla Beach is a long way from Panacea. You could go down the road east of the Ochlockonee River and put in at a launch there, can't think of the name of it. It's a small launch. That would put you a ways up the river, and you'd have very little motoring to do and not quite the waves. Tomorrow is ...

I have heard that fluorocarbon is not very abrasion resistant. What kind of leader would you tie onto a braid when
fishing the rocks east of the lighthouse?

I know where that is. Is he talking about casting around the pilings of the bridge? I've noticed some people tied up to the bridge. Is that a pretty good place to fish with live shrimp?

There's a floating pier thing between Franklin and Wakulla by this dirt boat ramp. I caught my first flounder and red there, have seen drum and sheepshead caught out there if you can cast right to the pilings.
>>Where is this?

Is there a charge at these landings? I know that Mashes has a cash box.

What's the charge for pinfish these days?

Any general tips for the best time (in daylight) to catch sharks from Alligator Point beach? Incoming, outgoing, high, low? I know it's best if you can throw it a country mile or have someone kayak the bait out a hundred yards. Maybe if one would get serious about it he'd fish for them at night, but...

Are they using seines or cast-nets?

Can anyone steer me to a place where I can pick up a few crawdads to use for bait? I know I'll have to dose myself with bug repellant with the yellow flies so bad right now. Thanks for any info.

I busted the head unit of my treasured fishfinder. If anyone can steer me to getting one please let me know. The factory
has a set charge of $255 for any repair of this model. I don't need it that badly.

I have the dual unit, Garmin 160 and the GPS 128, complete with wiring and transducer for $50, if anyone's interested. Crawfordville.

We fished hard Sunday, last of incoming tide. Oyster Bay, mostly the cut that's west of Shell Point. Didn't get a bite, not even a ladyfish. Used swimbait with ProCure and Gulp and popping cork. The weekend before fished the lighthouse and only managed one Spanish. Haven't tried Lanark lately. I'm c...
