I agree Dave.  I am so glad I was with a friend that knows the back and all its little quirks.  The trip was a bummer but a learning one.  It was not to be plus when ever you have wind, wave and current working against you you will loose every time.  Plus you have to watch out for the quick change like what happened that night.  It was a precursor of today. 


Now I am looking forward to the next outing once I get a new anchor.  I thought the one I bought last wee would work but it did not dig into the sandy bottom out back.  I will have to go with the tried and true 3 prong 3lb one.  Plus I will be rigging up a traveler like yours.  Good stuff.   

Happy Catching

Paul

Sounds good Dave thanks.

Did you buy all the hardware separability or was it in kit form?  The reason I ask is that I was over at West Marine the other day and their prices for the parts alone were double some of the kits I have been looking at.

I like your setup and would like to copy it but at west maring prices the pullies alone are like $18.00 the SS ring was 13 bucks  and not counting the other stuff needed their prices will bring me over 50 bucks for the trolley system.  I know its petty but I have to be stingy on some stuff right now while my daughter is back in school.
