You know how when you pick up your trolling motor to move to another spot and take off there is always a bunch of water that sprays back at you? To avoid this after you get it up turn on the power for a second or two and almost all of that water will come out meaning no more spray in the face when you take off.

My trolling motor folds to the left side of boat, which means my passenger gets all of the water and (weeds), it's actually kind of fun to watch that specially when they catching more than you do. :D

good luck on that one, He ask me if I had a glove to grab the fish, lol I I'll try to teach him, but I got a catch them first, least I tell him how to place net in relation to fish and not to rush into it. going to Wappingers creek so should be able to catch them

yea, my fishing partners boat is this way as well. I've asked him dozens of times to spin that when he picks it up but he never does *sigh*
It's not too bad during the day because I have sunglasses on, but at night it never fails I get popped in the eye a couple times every year.

How about a small piece of sham wow! To wipe that spary off. I have a couple pieces of it on board to wipe boat off at the end of the day.
