Douglas, BOOM!

[Carl Guffey]

<font face="georgia,palatino" size="3">Was fishing the BASS nation State Tournament on Douglas a couple of weeks ago. During pre-fish I started a run from Shady Grove toward Muddy Creek. Didn't make it. While running up the channel at about 50 MPH the motor just shut down. Would not start, would not crank. Finally cooled down and started with a loud clacking. Cut it down and got on the trolling motor. Time for a re=power.</font></p>

<font size="3"><font face="georgia,palatino">Fir</font><font face="georgia,palatino">st day of the tournament I caught 6 pounds. Had a limit, but lost three big fish during the day. Just couldn't get them in the boat.Things were not looking good. Second day, caught 16 pounds and made the top ten and the Tennessee Eastern Division Team. Looking forward to the Divisional next April.</font></font></p>

<font face="georgia,palatino" size="3">Buzz, did awaywith that long ago. I mix all of my fuel. I can see many dollar signs. Iam probably going to go with an SHO. But we will see.</font></p>
