Thread: Good ideas and tips - got any?

it is just for you

I put my plug in the captains seat of my boat now.....because as Forrest Gump said, "I am not a smart man, Jenny"!!!!!

Yes....before you say anything, Keefer.....I put it in the seat when I take the boat out, not when I put it in the water!!!!!!

Don't have a chili dogs before going on a 12 hour road trip..... learned the hard way many years ago nothing quite like going up I29 at 70 mph with windows down and it being 20 degrees out

(1) Know very little about slip bobbers but struggled with traditional bobber stops of various designs, especially when sitting several foot deep. Fellow suggested unwaxed (important) dental floss, tie a hard knot at depth needed, cinch it down much as possible and trim the ends.
(2) When Monty unbuttons the side flaps of those 30 year old overalls and starts airing himself out put the trolling motor on highest speed available and exit the immediate area.

Seen a good one about storing loose hooks, put them on a safety pin to keep separated and from ending up all over your box.

I posted the tip about the hooks and also the swivels.(I saw it on another post somewhere). I made an enhancement to it to prevent the pins from slipping out of the compartments on my Plano box when I turned it upright. I added the split ring to keep various sizes together and also now to large to slip out of the compartment. The split ring goes through the loop on the safety pin so you can still take off one item without removing from the split ring.

Looks like your post took a few detours off the subject too. What are friends for??

OMG! That's me!!
