Days like that keep you coming back, that’s for sure!

What did you do to revive the motor with the fuel issue while on the water?

I am glad to read this. Sunday, i kicked myself for not working Borgne first before running out, and this brings peace of mind LOL. Should shape up for a productive Fall.

I was about to ask how many miles were covered, and then I read it. Sheesh.
No trolling motor can become frustrating at times, especially when you find the bite!
How big is the tank in this Ranger, and at what speed were you cruising? (Asking to compare economics to my skeeter… this summer, I’ve been averaging 3.19mpg at 39-40mph cruising speed. 75gal tank allows for some distance.)

Awesome day!

I like HU for the winding turns of the marsh. I once tried NU, but in dark conditions and especially foggy conditions when I am relying on radar, it is hairy as shit with NU – no thanks! Since I’m fishing home base all of the time, I’ve got a good sense of direction, plus the old compass helps when in doubt (especially when in the sound and unable to see any land).
Garmin makes a SteadyCast magnetic sensor that connects for slow steerage, but I don’t have it.

very nice!

I second this. I run 5 batteries – 3 for trolling motor, one dedicated for house, and one backup for the house. I also keep a NOCO 2000amp jump pack on board when I go out.

I caught fish under birds in this same general vicinity on 9/26.

@ShellBeachPathfinder – If i knew of a way to send a private message on this forum, I’d send you one to connect via cell / text.
I remember this day quite well. The wind blew out of the north a sustained 20mph without letting up, and often had gusts beyond that. The tide fell extremely hard as well (possibly too hard). Nonetheless, I found a few fish in the north side of Stump and in Pete’s.
I was solo on this trip. I didn’t manage to hit all of the fishing points I had plotted.

Fished Leboufs cut and douluts Friday evening from 5:30-7:00p. Caught some bull croakers, couple of pin fish, 3 trout and some gafftops. The slack tide began right at 5:30, so I missed the bite. I will be fishing those areas within the next few weeks for sure. Friday afternoon for me was more of an unwind / relax session than anything.
