I'm interested in this as well. There was a thread not too long ago where several of us were saying how much we despised the glassing portion of the build and a couple people (seedtick and bearridge I believe) said to not use it. If anyone can provide details/tips on how to build a watertight...

I've been doing these for about 10 years. We call it dancin' chicken but I usually call it shittin' chicken because, well, he is sitting on the can (and if you arrange the wings and legs right you'll get the perfect crapper pose). I don't have a fancy holder I just use the legs to complete the...

Yea, I'm talking about the "Fishin Buddy". It's an all in one portable fish finder.

I need to get down to Louisiana...you guys have too much fun. The only gar we have here is the long nose, bottle nose, whatever it's called.

French Press for me. The only problem is that the ones I have are all glass which isn't the best thing to take camping with you. There's a couple other good options. The Aeropress was made more to make espresso type brew but you can make Americanos (1/2 espresso, 1/2 water). It's small and...

I like that. I'm going to modify it a bit for my neck of the woods and call it a redneck sleigh ride.

I was looking at some fish finders and saw the humminbird fishin buddy. That would be perfect. Has anyone here ever used one?

I figured that out today when I tried it out. I'll be putting the 2nd clam cleat for the anchor line tomorrow. Today was a little windy so it was a perfect test day and it worked perfectly. I love it.

I got my anchor trolley on tonight. I was going to add a couple of clam cleats facing different directions to keep the trolley in position but I'm not sure I'm going to need to yet. I'm going to try it out first then add the cleats if needed. It looks good and should definitely function as...

Great information! Bob, since you have those nice nobs does that mean you've done something with t-tracks on a boat? If so, how did it work out? Toilet bolts...genius.

This isn't quite what I was thinking since it has specialized nuts but something similar. It looks like the correct bit name is "key hole bit". http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.aspx?c=1&p=51233&cat=1,46168,46176

Not really. What I was thinking is it would be just like putting inwales but it would be either one of the following... 1. Purchased t-track (don't think this would look very nice) 2. I think you can get a router bit that cuts a t-track type cut 3. take 2 pieces of wood 3/4" x 1" and cut a...

I wouldn't want to apply epoxy to the inside of the track. Is there an oil type finish that would protect the inside?

I've been thinking about adding some rod holders to my pirogue and had a thought. Has anyone ever tried making a wooden t-track (or you could get aluminum) and put in the boat for mounting accessories? I thought it would be kind of neat because not only could you mount anything anywhere along...

A red spinner bait with a small white fluke trailer. I rarely ever use spinner baits but nothing else has been working lately so I thought I would give it a try.

The pirogue I just built is my first boat ever. Fishing from it is the first small boat fishing I've ever done too. I hooked into a 4.5 lb bass the other night and I couldn't believe how he spun the boat around and dragged me around before I finally landed him. I thought it must have been a...

Oh, and the arms make it much easier to get in and out of.

Here's my redneck seating systems. It lays down good for those lazy slow fishing days. I put it in there because I haven't finished my UJ seats yet but I'll tell you, it's damn comfortable. It has a nice high back for supporting geezers. If I could find one that was a little more...

Can you post that link again? It doesn't work for me. Thanks

Beautiful boat, Oyster! I was in your neck of the woods back in May. Me and some buddies went over to South Core Banks for some beach camping and fishing. Didn't do too good on the fishing but we had a great time and did some good eatin'. The ferries were having a very hard time getting...
