Re: king gaffs for sale
Rich1 was the first one!!!! purchaser that is....
the way I figure it....I have one extra right now.....
I think I will shoot for 6 ,more to make....then see how much time I have left till we leave.....
still need to get other things done in life.....and need to finish the other gaffs.... I was going to give away, to a couple youths...they probably won't want them now....because they aren't like these :cry:....and to finish the 2 ling gaffs too....way to much to do :boohoo:
divedeep.......thanks for your book keeping.... ;)

Can't get a response from David. But as you know what he looks like, you shouldn't have any trouble fiding him. If he's there, he'll be on the octi. Thanks

It won't be early, still not ready with the gear(putting it together)

Re: king gaffs for sale
He's never there before 9 o 10

Re: king gaffs for sale
Thanks for dropping mine off Bill,Damn fine job.
-
Re: king gaffs for sale
John when you see him ask him if he will be down next weekend.
-
Re: king gaffs for sale
Pretty sure he said he was there till the 15th.
I might have to make a run down before he leaves if I can't get Bill and David A together. David has my money and I haven't been able to get in touch with him for the last 3 days.

Re: king gaffs for sale
I'll get yours when I see him Jeb.

saw David, when I first got to the end....delivered it at the parking lot when we left,after the uneventful day....last thing I did was gaff a nice 4+lb spanish
Thanks for all your nice comments on the gaffs and I hope you like and enjoy it!!!!

Re: king gaffs for sale
Thanks much Bill. I hope to get it good and bloody picnic weekend. What size rope do you recommend based on the eye size?
-
Re: king gaffs for sale
I have a 1/2 inch on mine(the first one made,more rounded rope eye)..... but I had my 5/8in cobia gaff rope in it no problem.....personal preference.....I find on bigger fish ....bigger rope is easier to hand line up, to the pier.....again personal preference.....maybe others have opinions , as I am a googan :boohoo:
I would suggest a braided nylon rope.....not twisted.....but if someone gets a 3 stand twisted nylon rope and wants an eye splice to the gaff,and back splice I can do it .
-
Re: king gaffs for sale
I like 1/2'' double braid nylon end pieces. They are a bit stiffer, so they don't get knotted up as easily as your standard double braid ropes.
