had some 3mm foam sheets. I measured the width of the spool and cut a length of 3mm foam and wrapped it around the spool arbor tightly, securing it with a
couple of drops of crazy glue. I put 100 yards of backing and the #1 line and filled the spool nicely.(actually had to put two strips of 3mm foam on the spool
arbor). Anyway, its a... ]]></description>

top of his camper truck...It was a hot day and no telling what damage was done to that nice rod...Another fellow put his under the truck at lunch to keep it
out of the heat...hopped in the truck and just missed his rod....I got to thinking...how about something simple to not only visually remember your rod..and

That&#39;s a novel idea. It kinda reminds me of when I ask friends if they have old used beadchains or other &quot;junk&quot; which can be used for tying
material.

just picked up a Martin 67SS for $10 in lightly used, not abused condition. Ask around and you will find deals. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Alpine ski poles are common on New York&#39;s Salmon river.  they are cheap, strong and have carbide tips.  the tips really bite into slippery rocks.  the part
at the bottom of the ski pole is called the basket.  most ski poles have a wrist strap too, which allows the pole to stay on your wrist should you need to use
your hand for something else.

I also refuse to pay the huge price so I made one.

I went to my local Goodwill store and bought a ski pole for $1,

I took the round piece around the shaft near the bottom (no idea what it&#39;s called)

off the pole, and slid a 3 inch piece of pool noodle onto it up to the base of the handle (it now floats).

It has a lanyard (or hand strap) on it and is very lightweight. I also use it as a backup... ]]></description>
