Well, I'd be checking on your goo- if they are still tablets, I'd say you've solved one of our moe common problems, and for about 9 cents a piece. (18, if you refuse to use an unplugged pen.)

After reading about the sponges mentioned above, I went to a crafts store and picked one up. I got one wet and found a milky substance coming from it. Does anyone know what this stuff is and if it's good or bad for you?<br><br>Thank you very much.<br>Xavier Phx, AZ

The container and the tablets are still intact. The tablets look same color and make same color and ordor and taste when used. Don't have anything more sophisticated to test this with. I am assured by an organic chemist that the polypro pen barrel and caps would be immune to the iodine and vise-versa.<br><br>Don't be thrown by the change in username it was a result in a glitch in the forum software that disabled my former username.

everyone talks about gaff hook why not use large treble hook, you can snag fish or grapple with it.

Bulk and packability

A largish treble hook in a psk that is jamb-packed with stuff will snag on everything when you unpack your kit. It willtake up a much larger volume than a flat gaff hook. If you try to haul in the fish with the treble hook or to grapple with it you will - potentially snag and tangle other things - including yourself. Treble hooks are wonderful for fishing with but don't pack well.

Just my $.02
