1996 Mercury 150HP pee water ???
Forgot to mention that it does it in the lake too. No alarms but what if the alarm is not working? Also, the boat sat in storage for about 1 1/2 years too. It is and EFI(electronic fuel injected) motor.

1996 Mercury 150HP pee water ???
Hey all! I recently bought a boat with a 96 Mercury 150HP outboard on it. When i run it or just fire it up in the drive way with the water hose the water from the pee hole is very hot. Hot enough for your hand to only withstand it for a couple seconds. The gauge is not showing overheating nor are any alarms going off. Is this normal or are my gauges and or over heating alarm not working properly? The previous owner showed me receipts for a tune up including new impeller, water pump and lower unit maintenance. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Worlds most realistic frog bait?
You remind me a lot of Dink Whisperer... ;D You Florida guys all love you frogs and exclamation marks. x2 ;D But let me ask you this: Are we fishing for bluegills that nibble on their prey? How does the hook placement matter?Have you ever fished a live frog or seen anyone do it? You sure can't texas rig a live frog,it is hooked in the lips. I've caught bass on 10 inch straight tail worms nose hooked on a dropshot. Just trying to make a point,to each his own,thats why we're people I guess. What, do you think bass always inhale their prey? Hook ups can be hard enough with hollow frogs because they don't always take it all in. Now imagine the hook in the lip section! What you have caught on drop shot worms is completely irrelevant when comparing to a surface lure!

Worlds most realistic frog bait?
Those things have been around for a while! I remember always seeing the videos on YouTube. I wouldn't buy one because of the hook placement!

Powell Max-Please Help!
The 705C is by far my favorite worm/jig rod. Very sensitive and light too. Slightly over rated in power though(not mag h). I pitch 1/2oz jigs into tight cover with ease on this rod. You will not be disappointed man!

Seaguar AbrazX
Used it in both sizes for flipping before switching to braid. Not as abrasion resistant as you would think! Broke off a bunch of fish so i took it off. BPS XPS is BY FAR the best, strongest fluoro out now IMO!

Rat-L-trap over the grass flats off the creeks---do what?
Try the Excalibur XR50 lures. They are waaaay better than a Rattle Trap! They weigh just a bit more so they can get down to where you need them. I like the chrome/blue back with orange belly! http://www.xcaliburtackle.com/rattle.asp
