      • Hey d_rekI actually taught Chrissy how to Fish. And we went fluke fishing last weekend. Of course the knuckes aren't quite meant for fluke so we didn't use them. They are really an urban spin on survival and fishing. Kind of a one liner but it does actually work for drop line fishing off a dock for some snappers. Thanks for your support on the toad. Glad you like it. What do you like about the toad?designsince
      • That last message was from me (Daniel) if you didn't figure it out. Forgot to sign it...designsince

        I'm just grindin' ya man ;)

        I was more or less raised by my grandfather - a hardcore great-lakes fisherman. He would have probably died of shame if he caught me using one of those.

        I was actually fishing over the holiday weekend - pulled up about 2 dozen or so freshwater panfish (sunfish, bluegill, crappie). Filleted them myself and fried them up the next day! Nothing beats fresh fish! :)

        Hey Daniel,

        I'm a bit opposed to the idea of the fishing knuckles actually. They not only look like brass knuckles used to beat people with, the idea was made to beat fish instead, in case you are feeling like you care about the environment. However with these fishing knuckles, you wouldn't be catching any fish over 1lb, so there is no need to beat your fish with them. The minnows posted showing catches deserve to be sent back into the ocean, rather than beaten.

        I also love fishing, and the wonderful community that has rises from it. But the moment you arm them with potentially dangerous weapons.... what kind of imagery are you bringing to this world? Did daddy take you out on a boat, and now you thought it would be cool to make fishermen look like gangsters with knuckles?

        If you wanted to seriously make a better fishing product, you should have made this piece a floating device, rather it looks like more sea junk, waiting to fill the ocean's floors.

        • LOL? Are you really going off about some fucking fishing knuckles?
          ********
        • It's all good! Thank you for taking the time to write us. All feedback is helpful. The fishing knuckles are more of an urban twist on fishing and not meant to be taken too seriously. On our packaging we note that step five and six are not recommended. If they do end up on the ocean floor they are made out of Richlite which is basically compressed paper and will not really affect the environment. We switched from acrylic to this material for that exact reason. Good thinkin! All your input will be taken into...designsince
        • no offense to all the design work over there, which in my opinion is pretty awesome.

        • Thanks! None taken! :)designsince
        • Can one not write more than fits in this little note box? Can it not scroll?designsince
