for some reason I can't stand these things. I've tried them on my little `toon, and the Watermaster, but they go in the bag now. the line gets constantly tangled on them. It's probably something I'm doing wrong, but it's easier not to bother for me.
Outcast Super Fat Cat Casting Apron
After 3 years and a lot of use, my adjustable height/new-style/folding strut apron started folding-up like a wet towel, dumping my fly line over the front edge. I looked at the "old style" aprons, but don't believe those will work. So . . . I cut a plastic door-sweep to 21-1/2" & fit it inside of the front of the apron lip. I'll test drive it on the next calm day, but the front lip no longer flops-over & the apron web remains relatively flat & fully-functional. At present, I attached it with 2 large binder spring clips & removed the clip handles. If it works as intended, I'll pop-rivet it in place if the binder clips slip, but it's held pretty tight. The rubber, finned gasket laminated to the underside of the sweep will serve to protect the apron mesh from abrasion.

Do you know what kind of stripping apron I should buy from Outcast? My garage sale Outcast did not come with one. I don't see pockets for the stand-up apron used on the newer boats.
