Wow, i knew the 60 was a bit heavier but i didnt think it was that long. Im having second thoughts about getting the big one.

I need one for the yak......think the 30 will be plenty! Mostly for controlling fish! Thanks guys!

had a 60#- sold it because it was too long and heavy....

I was thinking of using a machete on those pesky bluefish in the kayak.
Not much fun when they are flopping around inside and all I'm wearing is my grape smugglers.

Grape smugglers? Might have to rethink that" lets get together and fish" thing!!!!!:hidin:

I love learning new words or phrases, "grape smugglers", very good.

Here is another for ya Frank! "Banana Hammock"!:rotf2:

get the 60. then again - with the fish you catch the 15 will do.

Likely a spelling error: grape snugglers or snuggies?

Save your money and get a 50 pound rapala scale.Boga makes a great product that I think are IGFA eligable. For the sole purpose of controlling a fish yakside the 50 is perfect and the scale is pretty accurate.I sold my 30 boga last year because I really don't care what a fish under 30 weighs,if a fish bottoms out a 50;picture time.If the choice is limited to boga,60.

other then talking about what holds your boys in place lol. What type of maintance does the boga grip need after a night in the surf? Do they rust/corrode easily?

WD 40 every so often

Get yourself the Cabelas brand boga... Im on my 3rd season with it.
50# scale, VERY accurate... *Very strong springs... once a fish is lipped, its is NOT slipping off while thrashing around. * Lightweight * VERY corroision resistant... I wear it clipped to my belt ALWAYS... that means its underwater for hours at a time... looks and works like the day I bought it... and for under 30$ you cant beat it... and should you happen to lose it, youre only out 28 bucks... 24 when its on sale. I'll try to find a link. (*not listed on their site.. I'll take a pic of mine... also... STAY AWAY from the berkely lippers... the spring is so weak even a 5 pound blue slips right out... RAPALA also suck due to the way the lipper opens... very narrow gap....)

Ok we can get carried away, I have a feeling this is going to turn bad.:biglaugh:
According to the urban dictionary.
Grape Smugglers, very small speedo trunks which hug the bollocks of the male wearer in a manner which makes it seem that they are "smuggling grapes " between their legs.
Often seen on European, particularly French, males.

My brother Tom, asking me " Now what do I do ? "

Paddle slower?

Agreed.
He is thrilled to catch any fish.
I suppose that is all that matters.
He does get a few bass his way though.

Here is another option a few guys on SOL where advocating as "better" than a boga. Not sure if they are still available (?RISSA). Made out of nylon and SS...appear solidly constructed. Much lighter and longer than a boga. The one without a scale is 9oz,
the one with a 55lb scale is 15oz. They have a larger grab than a boga, but are manually activated and don't snatch as quickly as a boga. I have not tried them yet.

I am looking for quality so price does not bother me...Boga is $120 so no big deal......what I am most looking for is something that is not too long and the Boga 30 pound might be just what I am looking for! Thanks for all the help!

Bob.....ummmm....your not gonna wear grape smugglers when we fish together are ya?:err:

Doesn't everyone ?:eek:
wanna know what Mike wears when he thinks no one is watching ?

I guess? Long as you are not wearing your fishnet shorts I have heard about......and you keep your yak in front of mine about 20 feet?:rotf2:

Seriously I thought about wearing a cup.
As I have reached for blues, a few have jumped in landing right between the lads. Hooks and teeth so close to making me an opera star.

I just don't want you trying to slip me YOUR boga grip......if'n ya know what I mean! :scratch:

Now your scaring me.:err:

You had me scared at "grape smugglers"!!:eek:

No, my usual attire is classic Hawaiian surf shorts.
Aka 2na style

For sea robins, I recommend the zebco de-liar. A Boga or the like won't fit in their mouth.
