Excited To get Geared up
« on: October 03, 2018, 11:11:44 PM »
So I finally bit the bullet and bought the decoy anchor mold I have wanted forever. I just always had something else that needed the money spent on it but finally made it happen. For the J-hook/Keel Grabber style anchor. I can only make 1 or 2 at a time since a 6 or 8 oz weight is what I need for most of my places due to wind and current. My dad machined a mold for me years ago but it is just a big chunk of steel and is a pain to work with. Not to mention the weights don't come out easy no matter how I do it. Always had to turn it over and bang on it with a sledge to get em out haha. Now I just need to get working on making them. Got a bucket full of lead and 6 dozen deeks to outfit.

Nice, I bought a one-sided one off of eBay two years ago and it takes a while to make up a dozen.

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
