  1. I bought a laser level for $30 to my door. Works great, and is comparable to my buddies that he paid $230 for . That's my only purchase.
  2. Just another you saw it here first! wont be long before many will follow. well done as usual Chris.
  3. Hey Chris Not one of those handles for all but there are those that will love it! IMO (I'm sure some would think the handles you have built for me are for "old guys" !!) I like that you are willing to try new ideas, and have the skill to pull it off. I count myself very lucky to have have more than a few rods built by you. Here is my favourite.
  4. That 1st generation R2 475 is a great reel, and about the only thing that can go wrong with them is the ratchet spring, ( Easy to replace) and the bearings. Should it need service I'm only an email or phone call away. https://www.kingpinreels.com/contact
  5. If you want to see some crazy stuff watch this on YouTube; https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=79th+street+boat+ramp The guy is even hiring videographers !
  6. I have no problem with reversing mono on my center pin. Why not save a few bucks when you can? The 150 yds you never use is as good as the day you put it on, in most cases. And burying the 50 or so yds that you do use makes sense!
  7. That is going to be some blow......🙃
  8. You are getting a better deal on the launch fees at Fishmaster than most. Sign says $10, which is what I've been paying for a couple of years.
  9. Old Ironmaker is bang on with his description of the edibility of them. Smaller ones were better tasting than the big ones due to amount of dark lateral line on the big ones. Only worth eating within 24 hours.
  10. Cabelas also has their brand of bags on sale occasionally. I find the 6X10 and 8X12 to be very handy.
  11. I've got a Fenwick Boron 721. It was my favourite in the spring from the boat at Thornbury and Meaford when the splake were stocked heavy. Very sensitive !
  12. Awesome! You have set the standard for a fishing post for us all!
