Is the boat brand new ? During the PDI this should have been cleaned but if the had to add aftermarket accessorie they might have drilled throught the aluminum and just not have cleaned up .

Alright so if the moons line up I make a early morning run to St-Francis this thursday . I have fished there only once and had little success. I am hoping there will be some smallies swimming on the shallow flats that surround the south lancaster area . If thats not the case I plan on doing a little...
