Re: Spincast?

I tried one for the first time while 'showing' a little girl how to fish. Well.... that was embarrassing. It was horrid. Never again.

Spincast?

Just wondering if anyone knows why spincast reels seem to have fallen out of favor?

Re: Stolen Lund 1675 CP Marine

The way that I took it was that even though insurance will cover the money lost from the boat. With that claim Blake's premiums will go up which in all likelihood will need to be passed on to us, the customers.

since this hasn't been moved yet i'll add to this a bit more.
The milk crate also comes in handy when transporting the tank. Put the tank in the milk crate and you will never have to worry about the tank rolling around in the back of your car or truck.

That being said it's getting close to being too much snow. All powder in this area so I can still blow through it but if that changes it w...
