We took our boat to Chocolate bayou on saturday. We put it at the 2004 bridge and were lucky enough to have a couple of gentleman stop and help us with a few things! If either of you are reading this, please let me know who you are We really appreciate the help.
We only caught a few undersized reds but we still had fun. We did realize that our anchor is not doing its job.. We have 4ft of chain on the anchor and still could not get it to keep us still. The boat was supposed to come with 2 anchors according to the ad on craigslist, but the guy who sold it to us took both of them out of the boat and replaced it with brand new cheap anchor. Anyways, it is not working very good and I was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what kind of anchor(s) we need!
At the end of our trip we went to start up the motor and it wouldnt start! The battery that came with the boat had the date etc. taped on it, like it was off of a different battery! Very strange. We ended up buying new ones today and everything is running good. It was an eventful trip for only our second time taking the boat out! We had to troll back to the boat ramp, and with the wind, that was a challenge. Hopefully next time everything goes a little smoother because we want to catch some fish!
