So then don’t ask her to try it. Just use it in front of her and then put it away without saying a word. I guarantee she’ll give it a test drive when you’re not around. That’s how they operate. Its just a chess game, gotta use . . . “Strategery.” 🙄- Leprechaun

There seems to be a problem with a double posting error. I will address this with George.- Leprechaun

Crabbie - if you are concerned about "voids" there are two ways to address this. One - really slather on enough epoxy that the space between the tape arbors are well filled as you push/twist the grip up from the bottom of the blank (which is what I showed in my three threads, albeit with...- Leprechaun

The very last flounder trip on the Leprechaun - May of 2009. Had my old friend Donn/DCBassin aboard and we ran from Seaford all the way up Raritan Bay, within sight of the Outerbridge Crossing to get 'em. That was a VERY long way to go to fill a pail, but at that point in time it was make the...- Leprechaun

Nice, but I still value my decrepit body enough to NOT buy her a vacuum cleaner for Christmas. If she follows thru with what I think her reaction would be, it'll be tough to do my boat's Spring prep from a full-traction bed. Buuut - I COULD get it for myself - and then ask if my wife would...- Leprechaun

Crabman - T 'Dubs has it right. Go back to my three threads and take another read-thru and look at how it's done. It's all right there.- Leprechaun

I greatly prefer quality EVA myself, and would always go in that direction (see my previous three rebuilds). But his intention was that he has a set of four of these and wants to keep them matching perfectly. Thus the pre-formed cork grip suggestion.- Leprechaun

Sorry, I was watching the Knick game w/my son. He’s even more diehard Knicks/Mets than I am, and that takes some doin’. You’re on the right track. I would make five tape arbors with 1/2” tan masking tape, fitting each to the grip in turn - to moderately snug. Next slather it all up with the...- Leprechaun

Your welcomed. Just cut the forward tenion off the new grip and push it up flush with bottom of the reel seat. Replace the entire grip. It would look like a foogazy half-ass patch job to do it any other way, because the new cork will probably not be a perfect match for the old, thus a partial...- Leprechaun

Crabman - I feel your pain. You can refer to my three rod "rebuilding" threads for how to make this situation right. https://nyangler.com/threads/how-to-turn-a-perfectly-good-custom-stick-into-a-better-one-hopefully.4858/...- Leprechaun

Hit the 90' drops N of 17 for 45 minutes w/o a tap. Moved to Jersey 65' and had some very limited life. Capt Mike, Robbie Pav and I ended with only 3 Rec keepers and a bunch of Comm toss-backs. A truly gorgeous ocean today - like Capt. Mike said "50 miles of ocean-running and not a drop of water...- Leprechaun

Abu Revo vs. Penn Squall
Hiya Scott - so first off, both the Abu Revo series and the Penn Squall/Fathom baitcasters come out of the Korean company "Doyo's" factory. Its Pure Fishing's way of consolidating production expenses, as they own both Abu and Penn. Not a bad thing, just wanted to put it out there. I understand...- Leprechaun

Where Did All of These Tog Come From?
I've fished enough with Mike to make a valid observation that though his Eastern Sound fishery is still quite good, it is not what it was even five seasons ago. He is working harder (and smarter) in order to keep his catching consistent. And the size is down out there as well. Most eastern...- Leprechaun

Where Did All of These Tog Come From?
OB is right. Sorting thru 50 fish for a couple of keepers is a far cry from even four seasons ago.- Leprechaun
