That is agreat price. The only upside to Big bear's skins are they are LARGE. The ones I got averaged 24" long and about 1 1/2 to 2" in diameter.

What are ya a gurl....

I was rigging a few up one afternoon in the parking lot near the bridge when a kid and his dad went by on their bicycles. The kid noticed what I was doing and had his dad turn around so they could watch. I showed them how the skin jigs worked and a couple of different ways to rig them. But the funny moment came when I took out a skin and blew in the end of if. I thought the poor kid was going to throw up. He had this freaked out look and said to his dad,"did you see that. He touched that to his lips". I explained to him that this was the best way to check it for holes and to be sure the butt vent wasn't all blown out. The father was just standing back grinning. They went about their way after that with a little extra fishing knowledge.
