What do you do when the fishing sucks?
I have never fished so much for nothing considerable in my life, than since Turkey Day of '10 until now. I try to get out fishing 1, if lucky 2, times a week, but lately the weather has been putting the damper on that. So... Being the type of person that can't sit still long enough to watch 1 quarter of a football game, I began many projects.
Project 1. Skiff Work
Project 2. Rod Wrapping
Project 3. Simplify my life
Simplified Life - I work, play with the kid, hang with the wife, build my own rods, and fish for inshore and offshore for pelagic species. That's what I do when it sucks. What do you all do? |

I used to wrap rods too.I still have my wrapper and dryer.I have a hand wrapper and not a power wrapper.Works fine its just slower.I Plan on wrapping a few rods again soon.I have wrapped five rods in my life and only have one left,My 800M.I feel every So-Cal fisherman needs an 800M.I actually broke 4" off the tip stuffing in Yak so now its a 775MH Custom.
I made my own dryer from a B B Q rotisserie motor.It works great.I had an awesome Graphite USA rod that I lost in the surf and I want to wrap another one.

I'm thinking about buying a blank to wrap for targeting T-sharks. What would be a good stick for that? Thinking of an 80# rod with my 2 speed Talica spooled with 100# spectra to an 80# flouro leader. I recently got a 400# capacity chest freezer so I can now harvest and process a T shark or two. |
