Was poking around ...Day dreaming again ....and wishing it was closer to spring and found this



Interesting point in time to open the "door" [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

many talented anglers can simply swim the fish through the tuna door if this sort of "raw water washdown" is in play [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Thats not backing down. Backing down is when the water comes over the transom. Besides, there should be rods in the holders, spinning rods with reels up and conventional with reels down. That way you know its for real.

I laugh when I go Surfcasting in many of the touristy locales I get a kick when me and my fishin' pal show up with conventional surf reels and the tourists in the rental fleet of Penn Spinfishers see us, they flip the spinning reels upside down and start "Backwinding". Never ceases to make me laugh. We call them "Backwinders"

Oh man!, you mean I have been cranking upside down all these years?! I thought you were supposed to wind them back in with your hand rotating towards you, kinda calling the fish in from the sea......

Besides, I can't look at that shiny Stella or any of my fly reels when they're hanging below the rod [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
