Went out to Green Peter yesterday, got on the lake about 11:30, too late I'm guessing. Used down riggers to 65'. couldn't find Hootches the night before so we used trout killers in pink nw/ straight white peg corn, not dipped. Most boats were pulling out when we were going in, one boat had 25 the other had 20 Kokenee. We never had a bite. Then the engine started acting up, the ball collapsed and wouldn't pump back up. I'm thinking since the boat had set for a year there was sediment in the tank and trying to troll the 145 Suzuki down to 1.5 mph cloged the filter. HOWEVER, the weather was terrific, the sceanry was breathtaking and it was great to be on the water again. Next time, early, early, early. any suggestions?
