    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    The lure in the photo. Caught a few on it just dangling off the side of the ski while I was soft baiting. Might have a new dress on it now.

    Everything was quicker about the ski. Getting it ready, getting it in the water, getting to the fishing spot and home, cleanup afterwards. That said, I do carry a lot more junk on the boat. What I don't miss is being caught out offshore in a decent chop. That was horrible in winter!

    You fish in winter!!!
    I love the ski just for getting places. It's like going fishing on a dirt bike.

    Bastard things ! I have completely given up on set lines in sounds 25 hooks can easily go 20+ of these >}^+##!!
    My flounder next full of holes cause of them and a burely trail just becomes a spiky dog highway to your bait.

    And i have had one of those things drive one of its spikes into my arm.

    I just hate them ��
