    Gibo you should now make a fuck off big one in great white shark that you can tow behind a surf board. Would be a hoot in The breakers at the beach on the first of April.

    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

    I gave the piper a good thrashing Sunday morning, the new epoxy is solid! Not even a scratch from the hooks! Stoked

    Yip, almost all the top lure makers use it 'abalone' is what they call them, natural and also white and pink variations.
