Scientist,s link is a great piece.Who would think more damage occurs to fiberglass than metal.Good tips on lightning systems too.When the bites on ive been known to stick it out more often than not. One of the hottest bites i had was during a hellasious storm burst and the harder it rained the faster the rods went off. lots o lightning nearby too. It lasted 20 minutes and i was limited out as the clouds past.Bright sunshine followed and i was left soaked shaking and surrounded by flopping walleyes all around 5-6 lbs. didnt even have time to get most into the live well.Probably shouldnt have risked it but im a weak man when it comes to blitz bites
