WOW!! Congrats to the Mrs.! I lived in western Maryland (Frostburg) for a couple of years and enjoyed it. Good luck with the move and I wish you and your wife the best. Enjoy your time there!

You summed things up perfectly and explained it a lot better.

No confusion. My bad. I have a pair of float tube fins with a rubber heel strap that needed to be buckled. I mistakenly thought that was also with my non-adjustable Force Fins. I believe the only Force Fins to have a buckle are the adjustable ones.

My issue was that I had some difficulty with buckling and cinching them down, especially in cold weather. And a bonus, is I can be sitting or standing up with the bungee...lol.

I really like my Force Fins and liked them even better after I replaced the nylon buckle heel strap with the bungee padded heel strap a few years ago. My only regret was not changing the heel strap sooner. Such a delight to put on and take off the fins now.

From 1987 to 1988, I was working for the USFWS out of Gainesville, FL. A project I was hired to work on involved sampling the waters on Merritt Island and NASA. We were looking for Tilapia, but we also measured and tagged important recreational and commercial species of fish (tarpon, snook...

The spotting on some those fish is absolutely amazing. Sorry to hear about the Winston breaking.

Nicely done!!

Happy birthday!!

@Zak I use an adapter that came with a double-action hand pump like the one pictured below. I put a piece of clear plastic tubing on the end and then attach to the K-Pump.

Hey Zak, I used my mini K-Pump to inflate my Wilderness Lite float tube. I will take a pic of it. Please note that unless you have a mini-K-Pump that has an internal check valve, it won't work with the Wilderness Lite as its valve is not a one-way valve.

For fun, I did a Google search and saw that someone recommended Mike's Reel Repair (Chilliwack, BC). Hardy Reel Replacement Parts and Repair - Mike's Reel Repair And someone recommended this person: Kealan O’Donnel Pure Fishing Reel Service Team Lead 215-228-6371

I bought a Wilderness Lite Backpacker Pro float tube (weighs only 3 lbs) and got an external frame backpack for alpine lakes. The float tube is attached to the backpack with bungee cords and is partially deflated, which I learned about from @Dave Westburg. I pack my waders,booties and fins and...

Thanks for posting this. My condolences to his family and to those that knew him.

That first fish photo....WOW111 Great report, enjoyed reading it.

I did a Google search "where to catch peacock bass in FL" and there were several locations mentioned. I would also suggest contacting the Ole Florida Fly Shop in Boca Raton (561-995-1929).

I had thought that they discontinued mailing notices, but I double-checked to be sure before replying. Looks like letters have been discontinued, but you may get an email or postcard. I cannot remember the last time I got a letter in the mail telling me it was time to renew my vehicle, boat or...

@Rob Allen I believe it is the same in Oregon. Once you make your choice for the year and purchase the license, you have to wait until the next year to make the change. I opted for the digital license when I first heard about it, but never purchased it. I went into HQ and asked for them to...
