I was just told by Pelican marina that I have too much pitch on my prop causing the motor to bog down out of the hole. He did not see the prop but said that is what it is because I just bought the boat and it came from a lower elevation. I guess Redding is about 3000 ft lower or more. He said the motor is not getting as much air at this elevation. I am inclined to believe him. It's like a car trying to get started in 5th or 6th gear. no torque or RPMs. I am going to buy another prop and see.

Well you know what they say about the best layed plans.... turns out we are going to be hitting the lake tomorrow as well. I am going to try fishing down around squaw point where caveman has been having all of his success . We will most likely be launching at moore park and zooming up from there. I am guessing we'll be launching around 12:30 and getting off the water.. well.. whenever we are either full of fish limits.. or frozen
I can Private Message you my phone # if you want in case you end up with motor problems and end up stuck in the lake somewhere if you want.
Bro Jim,
Did the new prop solve your problem?
Have a Great Day...
We all have to try that one time don't we...... LOL jim another thing you could try that worked on mine is moving the motor up or down a slot, mine had to come down one hole and it made the world of difference. by the way kfallscody seen you on the lake did you get any bites??
