🤣 It wasn't quite like that. Mrs135 agreed to have the kids on Saturday then retracted her offer after she "suddenly remembered" an appointment at the hairdresser... 🤔🤔
So instead I'll be planning a shore dangle at some point over the weekend.
I seem to remember a theory that the bigger fish lie lower in the water and let the current bring food to them rather than chasing stuff up in the water column like schoolies do. If this is true then a weighted SP like a FBM or SG Sand Eel bumped along the bottom might help to locate the bigger specimens?
No idea on the starter replacement, but as for the italics, edit your post, then select the italicised text and then click the I for Italic icon in the text format bar at the top of the post - should revert it back to normal.
Yeah, they're off the scale. One of my team lives in Texas and he was saying the state government are carrying on as if Covid doesn't exist over there. 🤦♂️
After soaking it in penetrating fluid whilst we went for a dog walk, the shaft now turns. Not smoothly, and as you say Steve it feels like it needs a new bearing. How do I take the motor apart? Looks like it's just held together by pressed tabs in the body casing.
Take a look here Scott. Should be everything you need but shout if not.

Upper end of motor looks fine...
But the lower end including the gear looks goosed.
@suzook12, the gear looks to be a press fit. Any tips on removal before I go and buy a small puller?
Ha, I just found the same. 👍
I would potentially consider this but will see how I get on with trim tabs that actually work and decide at the end of the season I think.
