Flatfish, The Lure

I won a couple lots of used Flatfish lures on eBay recently.

I ended up with 26 of them, in various colors and designs, for $20.

Sizes range from F7 down to F3's (medium to small), and just a little spit and polish was needed to clean them up nice.

I tested one out today.



What a neat little lure! It is a slow bait, in that you can't run it fast or it twists and spins instead of wiggling on the retrieve. This can actually look like a fleeing prey, though, in short… Continue

Radiator repair

Was smelling coolant from my wife's car yesterday and found a cracked radiator. The new plastic heat shedders can't be repaired like the old style, but they are an easy drop in replacement. Ordered yesterday, delivered today and installed by midday.
