And I don’t know what it is about bass fishing but I’ve snapped a bunch of factory sticks over the past couple years. Spun these ladies up and they’ve also exhibited strong signs of the mojo.

This was the kayak version…..6” off the tip and a shorter butt section.  I also start dabbling in acrylic components.

And probably the most progress I made all winter……modifying my work bench to something slimmer so it collects less crap and finally mounting my dryers on the wall to clear up space.  One day I’ll get to the drywall and actually paint the wallls so it’s presentable…..until then it’s Amadeo artwork to distract the eye from the eyesore lol.
