You are correct sir, I am 6'2". But, it has nothing to do with 6/2 & even, over and out.

It's from #^&#^&#^&#^& Tracy comics. It is how he signed off on his wrist radio.

Geez I'm starting to feel ancient.

PLEASE PICK UP YOUR TRASH!

One day a Pirate and a bartender were talking to each other in a bar. The Bartender asked the pirate "Where did ya get that peg leg from?"

The Pirate responded " We were sailing the seas when a big ol' shark came up to me while I was swimmin' and bit off me leg."

Later the Bartender asked "Where did you get that hook then?"

The pirate responded "Well, me crew and I were in a battle and it got cut through the bone."

The bartender then asked " Then where did ya get the eye patch from?"

The pirate said, "In a harbor I looked at a gull flying over head and it took a dump right in me eye."

The bartender was puzzled and asked the pirate, "How would that make you get an eye patch?"

The pirate responded, "First day with the hook."

I'll tell ya what I did....

...After seeing and hearing some bad stories about korkers....

...for example, losing spikes....and having them loosen up on your feet....and losing them in the surf, or rocks.....when the straps break.


....so what I did, and which was cost effective.......I purchased some felt soles with spikes in them....I brought them to a local cobbler and had him attach them to my waders....

....Haven't been sorry yet....AWESOME!!!.....

I've got some "back up" waders that I want to put another set on...

...and I think this time around, I may add some spikes to them....I was thinking about cutting down some very big nails...putting a tip on em...and maybe using some washers to help secure them...

...If I do it before you do, (if you do it at all)....I'll let ya know how I made out...

I'm figuring on buying some short, not too thick nails.....cutting them down...re-tipping them on a grinder....and adding some washers to them.....drilling some holes in the soles...and strategically placing them so that they don't interfere with the adhesive part of applying them.....

...I think the soles could use a few more spikes, even though I haven't had any problems with them....AT ALL!!....


....I should follow the saying..."If it ain't broke, don't fix it..."

.....but I'm a stubborn Green!!...

I was thinking about some spikes on the outside border....shown in the picture below, but I'm afraid its gonna allow the edge to lift...due to lack of glue....and since you walk mainly on the ball of your foot....I figure if I cover those spots...it can't hurt..

Way ta go bloo! That looks real good. I think the length of the nail is important. Maybe useing (what i think they call) self driving nails used for hard wood floor's, I havn't seen them in stainless.
