I finally talked the father-in-law to let me dig this old girl out of the corner of the boat house last weekend and I have a few questions. I counted the turns out for the mixture screws, but what are the initial settings to start with? Also, I foolishly was thinking I could put the muffs on when I get it running, but the lower unit only has 1 spout out the back, so what are you supposed to do, put it in a bucket of water or something? Lastly, what kind of mix ratio do you run in those things? Thanks for any help.
I have a few days off so hopefully fish 4 days in a row from sunrise to sunset. Likely two or three lakes a day depending on the bite. I won't fish any well known opener lakes until the weekday.
I might have missed a guess, but here are the ones that I noted:
JerkinLips – March 27th, then April 7th
Brianf. – March 28th
Bobberwatcher – April….
MikeG3Boat – April 10th
SkunkedAgain – early April, then April 21st
Definitely a tough year for guesses, as it seemed to be a no-brainer early ice out. Then it got cold and snowed again.
