I totally agree with you guys about the safety equip. This guy is a big sailor and has been on boats his whole life. He's completely insane about the safety equip and he's got a wife and two young boys that will be on this boat often, so he won't skimp. The ditchbag is a great call though. I made my uncle get a floating handheld last year after that video popped up of the guys that went down and were able to hail that fishing boat with their handheld from the water.

Have any of you guys ever used those Cabela brand rods? Are they junk?

I have not used the Cacela brand so I can't comment on the quality. For a good cheap boat rod, you can't go wrong with a few Ugly Sticks. Cheap and durable......

My boat is full of Ugly sticks, $40-60/rod! No complaints

It ain't the rod, it is what's on each end of the rod!
