Tim, what brand of ice chest is that?
Got mine last year at Englund Marine in Astoria, OR for $275. 110 qt, size. Happy so far. No idea about the current price or if they ship. http://www.englundmarine.com/about_us/about.shtml

Looks like Yeti, performs similarly. I went with the cheapest roto molded one I could find for the ruggedness. Bouncing around on the diamond plate deck turns a standard cooler into Swiss cheese quickly. I did buy my rope handles here, same coolers.

Best guess, generic cooler any retailer can brand, likely chinese origin.

I'll be leaving home on Sept. 6th. I went to the range and ALL is good with both guns! I've located a taxidermist close to home today and I applied Kenetrek's boot dressing to the boots.

Oh yea it's that time! Layout all your gear and check it all 100 times. Hard to sleep at night or get anything done around the house. Worse than a kid at Christmas. Can't wait to here about the adventure.

Alright fisherman. Quick question. What's customary for a tip? 3/4 day tuna trip. Just 4 guys and the captain.

I wonder what he was looking at......., My hunting partner went on an Alaskan fishing trip and the captain told to be prepared for some big seas. I figured my partner would get sick, but No the captain was the one who puked!

Like seriously chopped it off...that's not good. 20% is the norm.
He said its damn close. He said he would fillet fish included in price. (Prior to injury) He stated he needs stitches but doesn't have time. He is gonna wrap it up but it stops him from filleting. I'm under the impression that should reflect on the price.. But I don't plan to mention that. It will be a long night if we get a good haul. I've gutted and cleaned a lot of stuff, but tuna is not one of them.

Was there last April and had 1 bite, caught a Bonita and that's it. I can do that here. We were trolling for marlin. I guess they did not want me getting skunked!

Well good luck...hopefully y'all get in em. Tuna will be easy to clean. Get a Bubba knife.
