BACK TO PLANER MAINT
Rich , I got the new flag kits yesterday and they are a MUCH heavier wire than my other flag kits, definite improvement.
Do you have an EASY way to remove the old pads on the red clips? I used a very small screwdriver to do a couple last night and it worked ok, just wondered if there was an easier way.

I think I posted this somewhere on here but it has been awhile.

Here is a link to a "how to" segment that I did a few years ago.
Planer board Maintenance | Michigan Sportsman - Online Michigan Hunting and Fishing Resource

The key take aways are that I sharpened the mini screw driver tip which greatly helped me remove and scrape excess glue. The other trick that was helpful was utilizing clamps to hold the clips open while I was working.

Hey john ive been using my small table vise to hold those clips open. And rich is correct about a very sharp flat tool to remove all glue, cause if not a flat surface when you glue new pads in they won’t make good contact on fishing line

Anyone remember the song by Paul Simon--Slip Slidin' Away? Hope all are safe! YouTube

Ok,

I'm back fro Kentucky to defend myself online.

1, I can NOT wear sandals or slippers at any time EVER, they slow me down when running from Becky, and I need every advantage I can get.

I carry a cigar, and a bandit, hidden on every trip should she appear, and I need to run from a sudden arrival of a Becky. If Jimmy is with me, I can throw down the cigar, and he will go after that cigar, get caught, and go all Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky, and I am FREE to catch my breath, and walk away slowly, and not be in any danger.

The Bandit works in the same scenario if I am fishing with Kevin. You can tell which Bandit it was, when fishing with him, as you can tell by grin on Kevin's face. Just look at Kevin, and ask *Kevin, is that the Becky Bandit?* then watch his reaction, that will tell you. any exclamation of denial, is a sure giveaway.

2. NO Speedo for me, that is for Steve Ash only.
If I were to wear one, I would make the news as the Sasquatch that someone killed at a camp, near the woods. (probably walking away form Jimmy & Kevin and Becky, after I throw down BOTH items for bait.) Another giveaway would bee the toothless beasts roaming aimlessly through every ones camp sites looking for the said Ginger in Banana colored Speedo. It would not be pretty..............

Waiting for this southern ice to get here is just frustrating. Thinking about getting the boat out and just using it instead.

We made it to Honolulu, 9 1/2 hour non stop flight from Minneapolis.



One beer was 9.50 at the airport but I wanted it anyway.
Going to the USS Arizona Memorial today and try to imagine the He// that broke lose that day though I’m sure it won’t come close to the real thing.
Local Charlotte man lost his life that morning but saved many others, he was posthumously (obviously) awarded the Medal of Honor.



It’s 3 am here, 8 in Michigan and I can’t sleep, body and mind are on EST.
We will spend 2 days on this island (Oahu) then Over to Maui

Here’s my view this morning, can’t wait to see it in the daylight.

Aloha
