My brother painted his Johnboat camoflauge and it turned out great. We don't duck hunt, We just like the look.

i want to build an ice shanty and paint a rebel flag on one side and the indian from the redman pouch on the other. and then a p.o.w/m.i.a flag on the end that doesnt have the door on it. if i only had talent for things like that.

Find a friend in your art class who is talented. Tell them you'll give them 50 bucks to paint the shanty.

did you get the anchor spool at cabela's?  how much line could it fit? (i'm sick and tired of spooling 150 ft. on a piece of wood - i am getting pretty buff forearms, though)

that one came from bass pro, but i think cabala's has them also. its called a worth anchormate. it holds 100ft. of 3/16 line. i think their other model might hold more though.
