Yes, wind on leaders for big game fishing off shore this is how it's done. However they run the mono or flouro up to 3' inside the hollow core. The also rough up the surface of the leader with some very fine sand paper every few inches so it is gripped better. Finally they use waxed thread to serve the joint between the braid and leader. This keeps the braid from unraveling. As for using hollow core for fresh water fishing, I don't think it's worth the extra cost and effort. Especially with hollow core being several times more expensive than non-hollow core. Best to just use an FG knot to connect your braid to heavy leader.

WHEW!!!! That was close!!!! The Marlies almost beat the Sens!!!!

Amazing he landed it on such a light rod!!!

The musician playing it designed and built it.

AMAZING!!!! Some peoples minds are just wired different from the rest of up poor mortals. I don't even know how you would even start designing something like this.

WHAT????? It's not like they're $1000 gubmint hammers!!!!

I think I would pay for a pair of these pliers before I ever spent $$$$ on one of those things

And a sore back!!!

Yeah, it's pretty easy to get bored here.

I have my Remington SPS Camo 12 gauge full of slugs in case of bear or wolf issues. I have a herd of rabid honey badgers to take care of the cobras!!!

Almost. An ice road runs past the front of my place. It's about 1/2 km or so to the cabin from there. I took this picture from the shore. You can see my truck off in the distance. Later in the season I can get out there but not until the snow melts down a ways. The snow's too deep at this time of the year though. Can't get there until late April. Just because it's a Honda doesn't mean it won't go places.

Got my lumber delivery today. Much smaller than last years shipment. This is for the South deck and the roof over it. Have also ordered my windows and they will be in before the ice driving season is over.

I'm sure the OSHA and workman's comp guys know what happened. I would think they did an investigation, no? Either way it doesn't help fix you up. Hopefully the rehab goes well and you can get back to work and fun things.

Dang!!! That sucks!!! I was worried about things like that happening when I was raising my 12' high walls @ my cabin by myself. Hope you heal up soon.

How do I get the coffee out of my iPhone now?

Time to change your handle from LostAnotherOne to LostAnotherShingle!!!

Did the wind blow the eye balls right out of you head Cliff?

Wait until the draft and then July 1st and see what transpires.

Deadline was 43 minutes ago.

Should be fun tonight as they are bringing up a bunch of the kids to play, including Nylander.

Fixed it for ya DW.

LOL, no kidding. Now a days I really don't like going if the waves are going to be 3 feet or bigger. Gettin' old and I like being comfortable when I'm out now. Depending on the lake though waves are not created equal. A 3 footer on Lake Ontario is usually much nicer than a 3 footer on Erie.

Audi S8

I don't know about that OI. I spent over 10 years chartering on Lake Ontario before I moved up here.
