Nice work Sean. You've been busy while flying under the radar.

Thanks for letting us see what you've been up to...

By the way, you've not asked dumb questions. I came to this site green as can be, but I have learned a ton simply by reading, watching, and asking questions. The guys here are very patient with guys like us and I'm thankful for all of their help.

Thanks!
The V is a 79, with a 96 Mariner..
Fish are on the way, I have been squidding 4 to 5 times a week trying to fill the bait freezer, and a few decent stripers @ night from shore to 8)
Game on!
Thanks again..

You got allot of fishing poles.

The rod holders in the cuddy are perfect for rods under 7ft. I will end up carrying my trolling outfits in there.
I have way to many fishing poles, and that isn't even 1/2 of them ::) The odd thing is, I use them all ;D
