What's your routine to get back on the water?
Message:
Mine is put electronics back on boat, Charge and install all batteries putting protectant on Battery terminals and checking water level. Inspect rods and reels. Reel maintenance, and respooling of lines. Inspect plano boxes,restock and re-organize baits etc. Reorder soft plastics and reorganize as I figure out what I am going to the most and take off items that were not productive. Inspect boat trailer lights and trailer connections. Top off with fresh fuel. Go fishing. Inspect livewell pumps to see that no plumbing failed during the off season. Curious at to what you guys do?

I do the same, however I do spend a little more time making sure the YAMAHA is running good, lower end has fresh oil, all filters changed and fitting greased. Check fuel line for cracks.
I double check everything I checked and did when I winterized it.
Than I hit the trailer bearings, I make sure there are no worn areas and regrease them. Lights are good, boat is waxed.
Off we go....
