I actually have done that with my uncle, and I’ve put poly eurathane onto hardwood floors after we sanded them down . Results were good, but I was working with experienced people as a youngster. We didn’t have any kit, just Home Depot

If you figure out the spinnerbait secret, feel free to tell me

I find it ironic that your fav jig is called fluorocarbon jig

Oh no, not you too. I thought only the blue hairs in Hardee’s said that

Heard that. I think I gave 80 for a sheet of marine but that was a year or two ago . If you need it to be tougher just slather some resin on there, it’ll last half a century anyhow haha

Aw heck, if you lived down the road I could have brought you lots of marine grade. Then again maybe BCX is better, I’ve never heard of it

Good looking sheet ‘o wood! I love the smell of marine grade in the mornings…….

The price , duh……

You could go barbless and squash a lot of that fear, they stay hooked fairly well on them. Especially in the kayak when dodging ability is limited haha

It weakened between middle and east TN, we are lucky that is usually what happens

If a fish is hooked to me and flopping, his catch and release privileges have been revoked. I think I could bonk it quicker than I could find my side cutter Granted I’ve never caught a muskie and you don’t bonk those, I guess I would be reaching for all kinds of unhooking/cutting tools with long handles if i did

They don’t thrash around much after blunt force trauma

Nice ones, toss those mackinaw on the smoker!

I fish worms most of the time, but I’ve never neko’d, only tried wacky a couple times and stayed hung up, and I don’t ned rig. regular old ways still work

I’ve thrown traps my whole life and always lose a good many fish on them

Solid engines, they are typically still running in 2022 despite being manufactured in the mid 80s

I recently came into a couple NRS jackets for free, although they are covered in cobwebs. I’ll check the models later and maybe try them this weekend

Nice bass! That swing tho….. hahah gets me every time. I get a 6 lb bass about once a decade so don’t feel bad

I’ve taken mine off plenty in the summer. Not proud of it or anything, but I’ve done it. Got hot. I’ll pull the kayak on the rocks and swim around in some shoals without it in summer, maybe snorkel down and look at fish. Deep Lakes I just keep it on and sweat

Now wait a second, you’ve lamented several consecutive boat flips but this one was cool?
