Re: Cooler SIZE survey

I have a Yeti 65 and an Ozark Trail 16 for lunch, and Ozark Trail 26 I keep cold drinks in the car, and a rolling Ozark Trail 65 (I think, its the older one, the new one is 45) But for 3-4 day camping trips my Treeline 20 is good enough and takes up less room than my Yeti.

Re: kayaking with a tent cot?

I have a Cabelas Tent cot and it's great but way too big for taking out on a kayak. I recommend a Grand Trunk Mosquito hammock and a fly. Bring a mattress pad to keep the Mosquitos from biting in the backside.

Re: Folding claw anchors. Worth it in deeper water?

Well if your in 15 feet of water with a two pound anchor at a 7-1 ratio and it works. Then a heavier anchor would be needed in 60 feet of water. Your rope is 4 times longer and the drag created by the current on a rope Four times longer would overwhelm a 2 pound anchor so yes, he will need a bigger ...

Re: Anchor "trip link"?

I like it. A 2.2 lb Lewmar anchor cost $8 at West Marine and this device cost twice that or more with shipping. But if your willing to spend the money it's a great idea.

I have 16. That does not mean I carry sixteen. I want my clients to fully enjoy the experience. I also replace the bearings and they stay smooth year after year.

Re: Tournament tactics

I would like to add to your advice... 1. Find a couple of guys drinking beer at a boat ramp and get their advice. 2.
