RECYCLE IT..I dont always carry an anchor, but sometimes if I want to go anchor in the lake and watch the sun set, relax and swim, or whatever, untangling the anchor rope was always a task, so I decided to put it on this leaky hose reel ands it works great. theres abt 150 feet of thick rope on it. Also if its cold out, I wont have to touvh that cold rope, just reel it in with the handle.




COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

I doubt I will run out of rope, thats for sure. its only 15 pound anchor, just looks big in the pic. . If was on a lake like cedar creek, and lost all power, Id be very glad I had it with a 25 to 30 mph blow.

Hey booboo!!!!!!

You smarter than the average bear!!!!


I like that idea!!!!!!

And as for the losing power bit.. I blew my lower unit on palestine one day with a 20 MPH wind.. Me and a friend sat in the same spot all day and fished.. Loaded the livewells but unfortunately it was catfish!!



God loves you just as much as anybody else!!

Jesus offered His life as a gift for you. Please accept it!

One thing Ive learned in over twenty years of hanging around on boat,s when things go wrong, lots of times its a domino effect, the motor quits, then the trolling motor rope breaks, then you get pushed up against the rocks, finally get trolling motor deployed, kncock prop off trolling motor, or snap the shear pin, ect, ect., I try to keep my boat very organized, and everything working the way it should. Boating is supposed to be a pleasure, not a hassle, so im always looking for ways to make things go smoother. .
