Did you just "spray can" paint the trailer?

If so, how old is the paint and what brand?

How is the paint holding up?

Did you treat the galvanizing with anything before painting the trailer?

Curious minds would like to know.

Holy moly. I remember having to sleep in my recliner for a week after I fracture my sternum but for MONTHS!?? Sheesh man.

Hang in there Krash!!!

Ditto!!!

Get yourself split days off like myself ... Sunday/Thursday. I hang out with wife on Saturday after I get off work and all day Sunday. I fish while the rest of the world ( including my wife )is at work on Thursdays. Perfect scenario for me.

Thanks Scotty, that's the one I was thinking about.

There's one a couple of miles north of 54 on Hwy 41. Heading north from 54 it will be on the right hand side. I haven't been in there in quite a while but worth a phone call.

Yessir!!!

Dang, all that's left is for someone to come along and kick your dog. Sorry to hear about this after what you've been through and seem to be pulling through. Wow.

DOA paddle-tail in Chartreuse Glitter. Caught numerous species of fish on that one but mostly I use it for Speckled Trout.

Like Manning said, toss it out ... crank it in just fast enough to keep it out of the grass at first. No bites?? Crank it a little faster. They'll eat it!!!

Unless you're meat hunting then forget the bait. My grandson can catch most anything I can with a live shrimp, fiddler, etc. In my opinion, you'll be much more rewarded by "fooling" the fish with artis.

Good one Norm!

I don't think T.A. Mahoney's will be hit all that hard. They are a Tampa Icon and offer waaaayyy more that just tackle. It'll "ding" 'em a little but not much. Just my 2¢.

The most money I've ever been charged for the particular Owner hooks I use was at Tampa Fishing Outfitters off Dale Mabry. :/ Not a mega store by any stretch of the imagination. I needed them, I purchased them but haven't been back as I just "assume" everything they sold would be higher. M...

Had some bass on a stringer taken from the side of my boat by a gator on Lake Tarpon.

Put the trailer on the back burner since I saw I wasn't going to get it finished before my Keys trip in late August. Gonna get back on it .... soon. Friend has a chop saw and mig. Hopefully we can get together in a weekend or so.

Meanwhile, that picnic table/bbq trailer is genius. ha

VERY cool Randy.
