So I fiddle around with it and get it working again,hammer down,go about 2 miles and the danged thing stops again Worked on it again, bingo, hammer down again 
nope, cuts off again 
Figure out it's a bad connection,the plug is corroded so I say the heck with the darned thing let's do it Old School, ran out to 30' and started trolling some Rappalas at about 5 Knts. Picked up first one after 10 mins, 24",in the fish box he goes. Another 10 mins ,short 20", 5 mins another 24"er. Trolled over some good live bottom and trolling shut down so we u-turn and head back to where I saw some nice bottom (was using crab traps as guides). Anchored up and dropprd some livies down. Over next hour caught 3 more with largest at 27". Did'nt have camera so had to wait til back at Hill to get some snapsThis one about holed me
Not a bad day on the big pond
