Kent worked on both of my reels yesterday, oh what an improvement.  I could barely turn one of them and the other would only cast about 15 feet.  Today his project is the trolling motor.  It has a catch in the steering mechanism that is really annoying.  He has had it all to pieces and greased all that can be greased.  We will find out next time out if the problem is solved.  It is time for tackle inventory and probably some replacements.  It gets very hot in the black trailer and melts those gummy worms and kinks the monofilament.  I think there is a shopping run in our future.  At least before we head to Wakami this Fall.  Update trolling motor works much better!
