Hi TubeDude,
What! Take them out to initiate them! Are you crazy... after all that trouble?! You knew I would come up with somethin' right?!
I'll take one of these guys out tomorrow to Catlina Island. I even bought a little coat for him to wear. I thought this reel cover business was for a bunch of woosies that didn't want their tackle scratched. Well, I learned my lesson. That's partly true on the cattleboats but the reel issue, he he he, the 'real issue' is keeping not only the salt out of the works but also all the chlorine and other toxic stuff we use to scrub down the boat on the way home. Especially if exposed 4 or 5 times a week like mine.
A wiser angler applying 2 or 3 brain cells is me.
Thanks for the efforts. Are you drying our little squid friends?
