Yes, sold it today to LunkerBuster

Super nice.

I always recover reel line under pressure, of course if the fish runs I let go. I can get it nice, even, and compact on the reel. I think it's unsafe to do otherwise, plus you prevent the line from tangling and spending half hour in the boat untangling the mess.

What gun do you have, what are you shooting?
I like to have 3 times your max depth on the reel.

I've replaced the broken hinges of my Coleman cooler with stainless steel hinges. It's a nice upgrade but doesn't justify the overall price increase for Marine coolers. The SS hinges are not more than $20. The Igloo marine cooler also has plastic hinges, but they seem robust.
You can get stainless hinges at boating stores. They sell them by the foot.

COngrats on the rabirubia. Has to be one of the best eating.
You guys have awesome bottom times

Looks like a Dusky.

It is 2 pieces.

I have a 10ft gatku with a sliptip and paralyzer for $100. It has been in the water once.

I think I've seen those in white blades.

Most freedivers are in south florida where the vis is good, northern florida has mostly bad vis and scuba divers.
I'd look for a scuba charter and ask the depths and if you can freedive.

black drum?

Do you burn the end of the mono into a little ball?
Before crimping, hold a lighter to the free end of the mono and melt it into a little ball. -
I use that method.

I'd use 1/8".

I don't know, the site says:
QuoteOnly now we know that with wooden dive goggles you can dive deeper than 20 meters without having a mask squeeze. Check the Videos on our site to convince yourself.
Maybe the epoxy ones don't work.

We don't know exactly why, but it simply works.
You'd think they'd at least try to figure how their own product works.
Probably has to do with the wood itself being porous.
I'm curious to see the report on using them to dive deep. I think it would be fun to dive with such small goggles instead of a conventional mask. I'd have to make the strap more robust to hold the snorkel.Doesn't seawater sting like hell when it goes up your nose?

This pertains to road signs which people are familiar/conditioned with.
Traffic signs - Standard Colors
GREEN:
Guide, directional information.
RED:
Stop, do not enter or wrong way.
BLUE:
Motorist services guidance. Also used to identify parking spaces for disabled drivers.
ORANGE:
Construction and maintenance warning.
BROWN:
Public recreation areas, guidance to areas of cultural and historical significance.
YELLOW:
General warning and advisory of unexpected roadway conditions.
WHITE:
Regulatory.
BLACK:
Regulatory.
FLUORESCENT YELLOW GREEN:
High emphasis warning of school, pedestrian, and bicycling activity.
FLUORESCENT PINK:
Warning of incident Management activity.Most people don't pay as much attention to red signs, they are more of an inconvinience, slow down look around and gun it. However yellow signs are respected due to the increased chance of running someone over and killing them.
I think conditioning has a great deal to do with what people do on the roads and carries over subconciously on the water.

Very cool, I doubt he actually hunts like that. It was probably a show for the camera.
I think those are handmade wood goggles.
