Posts: 337 Location: Watersmeet, Michigan | So far, just cleaning and lubricating reels, sharpening hooks and rearranging tackle boxes. Haven't begun my main project yet, which is to build a rod holder out of PVC pipe and fittings. Tired of the poor designs available. Fr. K Edited by Yooper Padre 3/12/2014 7:48 PM | ||

Posts: 791 Location: WI | Just finished about 160 custom paints. Designed a new crank specifically for the Great Lakes. Repainted a few of my own baits. New line on the reels today. Couple dozen baits to paint yet. And get some baits out to friends and guides for testing this year. Longest winter ever. And it's cold as hell still! Ways to go here in the north. | ||

Similar to my list on my 680T! Repowered with a 60 HP Johnson, and adding a Tach and fuel gauge. Also extending my rod locker to hold my longer rods. | ||
