DIY Gaff
During that week of rain I made a nice little gaff for my kayak. I like to make things that I can rather than buy them. Pretty stoked how it came out. I have repaired gaffs in the past but this is the first, from scratch, one I have made. Even put it to work since........
Funny thing is, the first fish it stuck wasn't mine (you know who you are, I'll let you share your glory). I also made a nice cover for my kayak I might post later.

 I make my gafs from broken carbon / composite hockey sticks. Good grip, strong & very light...

I just realized I should have put this in the innovations thread.....sorry.
This is a ratan escrima stick. They are super buoyant and heat treated so you can whoop dogs if needed. You know, in self defense.
