I know, I know but I hate to give up wading. Will try to see what I can do in the spring. It is getting too cold to do much wading now. Tony --- On Sun, 11/28/10, Don Ordes wrote: From: Don Ordes Subject: Re: [VFB] UPDATE on Jimmy D now Canoe To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Date: Sunday, Novembe

This gives me an idea. I have been wanting to deck out my Jon boat for years now, but was always afraid it's too tipsy. Well, if I could build 2 of these type out riggers out of say, 6inch PVC pipe, it would be much more stable ( I think), Chuck - Original Message - From: Don Ordes

Jimmy, Tony My plans for my 15' Gruman Sports Canoe are half-way there. I bought the canoe double-outrigger above from Cabelas, and it easily dismantles for general canoeing. The casting platform will have a leaning post and a line-minder on the front of the platform. With a 3-

Jimmy, This will be the fifth canoe I built on these forms. I fished some from the first one and it is real stable. Dot, myself and three kids would canoe with several people on weekends. I never worried about it tipping. Brought it out here and a tornado got it the first year. Built one for Jim

I used a canoe a few times, when I was younger and had better balance. I'd never get used to a kayak. I did have a cute little pontoon boat that I used for a while, but it was much like fishing from a boat. Finally sold it to VFB member Jack Lehman. Jack loves it. Have you thought about putting

I have tried my son in law's kayak It is OK for a while but my hack gives out in a short time sitting with my legs stretched out in front of me. Hope to finish my canoe in the spring, I will give that a try. I have a 20' river boat but it is not fly fishing fishing from it. Tony --- On Sat, 11/2
