Personalizing Fishing Rods and Safe Tackle Tips
Shop in Comanche and Save. Personalizing rods is easy with tale powder chalk or buffing near the butt. Write your name with India ink and seal with clear nail polish. Detach lures before leaving the boat and store in the tackle box to avoid hooking yourself or a buddy. Tie on a rubber plug used for practice casting.
