Have fun out there this week Rob & hope you go large

those rod holders have treated me well, Bob. a little beat up now, but still work great. a great deal for a 12 pack and custom plug

hope you are well. was going to PM you to see if for some off chance you were taking the camper down there( I think you told you camped down there before). We will have to hook up soon. take care my friend..

I never use a knot to start filling a reel, just a piece of electrical tape.
In my shore bait fishing days, I've been spooled a few times by boats.
Happens fast, besides if a fish from shore took you down to the knot are you still in the game?
I know 3 people who have had their rods lost out of sand spikes, who knows. Turn your back for a few minutes anything can happen, boats,seals, sharks etc.
