[quote=Capt Billy Rotne;14789]Cool boat, nice fish. Did the skiff have a leather deck?

Yeah it has the leather deck

Sweet a good friend of mine have a whip with the leather deck, so nice on your feet! I have never personally found it to be slippery.

My first whip was a leather deck and I never had a problem, my current 17.8 of course has sanded non skid. No problems with it, other than I worry a little more about fly line getting nicked. But I would pick the leather over the sand.

Cross into the darkside, you're gallery is awsome. Looks like you've had allot of good times on the water down in the keys.

Are you a guide?

Very smart to finish that education first. That's something that cannot be taken away. Access to Florida bay may not be a sure thing.
