Yeah that's just the one I shot...ourlake record is 200# over 7ft.
The Trinity River in our area produces them much bigger than that.
You don't see many like that anymore.....you got her lookn' good!
My granddad gave me an ole 50's model 2hp Firestone that he said blew up on he and his brother in a storm one day. With a 2hp a simple breeze would be a storm.
Anyway I took the head off and it had blown the gasket, so I made a new and put it back together. Pulled it twice and it fired up. My granddad eyes lit up like a little kid, he remember going all over Sam Rayburn with that ole thing. Reverse meant to spin it around 180 degrees.
The troll motor on my bass boat was faster than that thing.....but he loved it.

Maybe it will be as easy to fix as the one I had. All of 30 minutes......Good Luck!
