Avet magging-how to and why?

If you're using it for jigging, I'd go with a heavy spinning outfit and 50lb braid that can cast up to 4oz. I can't bring myself to jig any heavier than that.

This winter while your tweeting, texting, facebooking and god knows what else you do. Put a bucket of sand next to your desk and grind away, get some callouses on those palmolive smooth digits of yours. Manly men don't tape casting fingers.

Not all of us are electricians who have zapped, burnt, drilled and mangled their hand into a nerveless leather glove.

About 20+ years ago I was at a friends house and his dad came home from work (iron worker). He tell his son to get the razor blades and rock salt and sits down at the kitchen table. Then he proceeds to cut the blisters on his hands and pack them with rock salt.
With my eyebrows raised, I asked why are you doing that? He said, "its the fastest way to build calluses".

I miss Uncle Sonny....

I used to stick small knives through mine to wig out my sister.
