Good luck to you out there this season
Isn't everything "about 10lbs"? Heavier than my phone, lighter than a quad, this I know for sure.

This would explain why when I'm making my packs of moose burger my 1lb packs can feed 4 people..... Twice

I think I've solved the mystery. The guy at Exile might have been mistaken when he told me all they had left was 8lb cannon balls. I've used downriggers quite a bit while fishing on the coast, but never my own boat, so I don't know much about rigging one up. Does this say 08, as in 8lbs, or 80, as in 80 oz's? If it's 80oz, I been duped! That's a 5lb ball.

You can never have enough BALLS.

Hey, where you been? Maybe we should take a trip for lakers, I'll get you running the downriggers.

The boy came home last night with 2 cannon balls he found in the school field! A 3lb'der and a 10lb'der. They look like they maybe had a run it with the mower, but are still in good shape.
