Well it is that time of year again when I pull out the tubes and toons and start the mods. Well to start I got a used power float repaired and attached to mamatrouts FC4. Also she wanted a sail (bimini) so attached one of those. I also attached my old Fishing buddy FF for her to play with, she gave me that look like where is my new one???? Now all she needs is the Minn Kota 30 and a battery to go with it.
The toon needed a repair due to murphy following me out on Jordanelle reservoir last november. So I had it patched and put aquaseal on the patch and inside over the tear. I have also added a Humminbird 565 with the help of TD. Attached it to the frame with a
dle clamp and left it unglued for full movement. Attached half a PVC "T" to one of the oar locks with pipe clamps. Not into drilling frame due to not much frame to work with. The oar locks are steel so I don't want to break the powder coating seal so that rust forms. The Transducer arm is not glued down so that it will move freely and will be removable for winter time ice fishing. I also found a small basket to place on the rear rack for when I am on waters that do not allow motors I can take my small 12v battery with me. Next on the plan is to line the pockets with the old voting signs that I picked up last november and to add a small plastic box to the front of the pockets for bait.
