    Thank you for the clarification,but I would still prefere aluminum at the fossil beds. I've had to many friends spend a boat load of money on there lower units down there after contact with SS.And yes I've had aluminum props refurshed.Good luck with your SS. Chuck

    Ok. Fished Monday morning with Fishinfreak. Had four people in the boat and had the limit with a few pig sauger! Fished the first deep hole in the fossil bed using spoons. It was fun, but it's starting to slow down since the water is so low I think. Lots of boats for a Monday. On the way back to the ramp, there were about 13 boats fishing the deep hole below the bear traps. Didn't see anyone caugh any bigger sauger. Anyways good luck and be safe on the river.
