Fished for five hours in the on and off rain today
caught all fish but two in about a five minute span in one spot using a baby bass colored floater/diver Rapala
final count was 7 Bass and 5 Stripers with one biggun that straitened the hook before I could see it "probably a Striper as well"
water temp was a steady 57 all day and the wind overall was a pleasant 5 to 10
never got the first strike on the X-Rap trolling today

"That thangs still 3/4 or better full I just can't drink like I used to " I'm sure you could find plenty of help from this crowd.

The problem may be that your spending to much time on the boat to finish it.
May need to rig up a way to mount it to the boat.
If we were all crazy, Wouldn't that make us all normal.
