bad day turned great...new pb for 09
I met up with Dan (member here) this morning for a Potomac trip. We fished the grass early and landed four. Two on jigs and two on top water. As the bite ended we decided to change spots. Unfortunately I could not trim my motor back into the water. Never had this problem before! It would trim up but not down. I attempted to use the manual release but had no luck. Very difficult to do that while on the water and not being able to see the screw. Long story short, I spent at least an hour in the water trying to fix it. I eventually gave up and decided to use the trolling motor and attempt to get back to pohick. After about 40 minutes and making little progress I called a tow company and was quoted $625 for a mile or so tow!!!!!!!!! Back to the trolling motor we went. A few minutes later I called my mechanic and he walked me through a few steps and the motor was up (trimmed down) and running. I switched the bad relay with the good one. The part will run around $20 which is a little better than $625! So far quite an embarrassing day to have a new friend on your boat. We decided to fish a little longer to see if we could salvage the day. 7 fish later we had a 3.4 lbs fish (picture of Dan below) and my new pb of 09, 5.6 lbs (picture below). I would say we saved the day quite well!

Bad for plastics? (Rage Tail)
i have a few bags of rage shads that were packed w/o the extra packaging and they SUCK!!! The action is greatly compromised in my opinion. The difference is night and day!

What lures do you guys use for fishing thick weeds??? I have frogs, rage shads and spinners covered. What else??? I am really struggling at high tide in the weeds (my top water does not work, as well). Any suggestions???

I just upgraded my trolling motor. I now have a MK Maxium 70lbs thrust with a standard prop. It does extremely well in the thickest of weeds. What lbs thrust is your motor???

Potomac Boating question
I think you would be fine in the creeks. I see tons of jon boats in Pohick bay. Check weather reports and you will be fine. Good luck

Here are a few pics from this morning. A buddy and I had a great bite this morning. Top water action was insane. I knew it was gonna be a great day when I landed a 3.5lb on my first cast! In about three hours we landed 13 with our best five going a little less than 18lbs.
