Bluegrass 3/11

They take away gas motors on bluegrass I'm putting a 101 thrust on my aluminum boat. Just be like everyone else running illegal electric motors and just change the top sticker out.

Well lets hope that they don't take away our using the gas motors. But we must police ourselves and follow the rules or they may change the rules.

They make some twin electric motors that mount onto the cavitation plates of gas motors.

Just don't forget that Nate was the guy that allowed us to use gas motors and he's leaving this month for Northern Indiana. So who ever follows Nate as the IDNR Property Manager for Sugar Ridge and Bluegrass F&W area will be the one making the rules for Bluegrass F&W in the future. Let's not make him mad at use. LOL.

I won't be able to fish Bluegrass easily if they stop the use of gas motors. It's very hard for me to recover my boat using the trolling motor and if there is a wind blowing it's nearly impossible for me to recover my boat while fishing by myself. I've recovered my boat with ropes and twice I have broken the tail light on my trailer in the process. I'll have to modify my trailer lights and add extentions poles to them to get them higher so my boat doesn't hit them anymore. Right now they sit right above the water level when I put my trailer into the water to recover my boat.

Besides if the winds blowing hard it's too much for my boat to go against the wind using the 55 # trolling motor only. Even at the high speed setting the wind can move my boat backwards if I'm trying to go into the wind.
