Stripping Baskets

I put all the blame on Go Fish......

 

I've had mine on since 1978.
In fact my old cat is the model for
Hell Kitty.

 

I'm holding out for the 'Sailor Moon' themed stripping basket. May. Just have to make it cause I haven't seen Simms or Orvis make it yet. ;-)

 

Its been a few years now and I have yet to put a sticker on my green machine. Maybe one of these days ill pop her cherry

 

next time we go fishing I will bring you some My Little Pony stickers.

 

PSFCo does have good affordable baskets.

Try putting 1"-2" of water in your baskets. The line will float freely, rather than being stuck to the basket and itself by surface tension. You'll have fewer tangles and can get more distance.

 

I finally caved and bought one

 

Good move

 

Yeah plus I finally found a place to put all my cool stickers

 

Very bold

 

I keep telling (more like reminding) myself each time I'm trying drag up intermediate line from the depths and tide swings for casting, that I need to get one. I really don't saltwater fish that much...maybe a dozen or so times/year.... and about the time I get serious to complete the task, I don't. So, I fumble, dredge, untangle, bitch and mumble to myself while fishing. Most figure I have tourette's syndrome and that leaves me plenty of elbow room...always an upside.

 

To hell with the "Hello Kitty" stickers! I'm gonna find some nude hot babe to stick on my basket!

 

Good call. I've got an American flag mudflap girl sticker around here somewhere that needs a good home.

 

I've been loving mine lately.
