Coast Guard boarding & hull number question?

[gofastsandman]

Very strange. I would want flares in a small lake.

One of my high school friends was a Coastie for 20 yrs. He always has great stories. They are mostly young men and like bikinis, go fast boats, and going into harms way.
Bless em all.

I knew last fall that venting tools were required, but the instructions on the back were wrong for many fish. I have the tool and de-hooker now. I still use my pliers and needle. I try to keep sani wipes in my box too. How do you clean the inside of the venting tool? Little nip bottle? Old fashioned pipe cleaners?

I`m all about being a steward for our mother, but sometimes the solution can be the problem.

Cheers,
