  1. I didn't disconnect anything. The horn works, this is completely seperate from the horn. My horn is 'glued' into the hull, this is something hanging down. I have a picture I can post tonight.
  2. Hi all, I am trying to identify a part that came on my boat. It's an 88 procraft. We went fishing (after MUCH rains) and the boat runs fine (and has been). We started the boat up after fishing most of the morning and it started 'buzzing' loudly. The sound is/(was...I'll explain in a minute) coming from this black circular speaker looking thing. We screwed the terminals down that connected to each polarity (black and red) and the noise stopped. Since then, my speedometer now works, when it didn't before. The engine still is peeing, no smells, and doesn't appear to be getting hot. Is that "speaker" a warning for something else (like heat), or for the speedometer, or for the impeller, or an aftermarket horn etc? I ask about the horn part because it took me 6 outtings to discover where my horn was. It's the old push button kind, and it was painted over to match the boat, so I never saw it. It's about 3 inches and only has ground, positive, and then a wire which I guess ties into the electrical system maybe? This part looks aftermarket. (i.e. it just hangs from under the console). Yes I am sure I'll get 10 replies stating to have it checked, but I don't want to pay the $65 an hour to have something looked at, when it may be nothing....follow me? Thanks for your help.
  3. I talked to a gentlemen yesterday about making a rod for me and he thinks he can. While talking about the details etc. he said he tapes the guides down and then wraps them in a nylon fabric. My question is, is that 'acceptable' practice? Other than that it will be an IM-8, 7-6 to 7-9 (not sure what I want just yet), one piece x heavy with blank thru handle, fuji guides, reel seat, and tip. I asked him to get the specs right on with the daiwa heartland as far as lure weight. Can you all also recommend what to be looking OUT for as far as this build? Thank you very much.
  4. If they suspend you can catch them with a drop shot, c-rig, or rat-l trap fish at "x" depth. If they stay shallow, you'll still be able to see them. If they move deep and sit on the bottom, then it's jigs, worms etc.
  5. I knew lakes could turn in spring too, hence why I was asking. I was more wondering about what temp. would 'make' the lake start it's process. a big lake like this.....it would take A LOT of rain to muddy it up all over the lake.
  6. Very nice fish!
  7. I watch.
