My first tank aka ironman!!

[Alto Mare]

Nice color combination Chris, thanks for sharing. Did you install the second dog?

Whatever he paid for the 9/0 was worth it. He got the mustard bottle

Was it full or empty? It doesn't really matter. If it was empty, fill it with  penn blue, it will keep nice for a while

Just remember this everyone, if you grind your aluminum side plates for Double dogs, make sure you coat the place you grind out or it will fill up with corrosion

Great point Jamie. I need to take my accurate/500 apart and make sure it's coated at the ground down point.
Thanks, Bob

I haven't added the second dog yet. I'm still waiting for 2 stainless dogs. And then I'm gonna have to figure out how to grind the plate out. I've never done a double dog install before

Page 4 of Sal's tank thread shows some aluminum plate grinding. I would do a couple regular double dogs on the plastic plates before I would attempt this. If it were me, I would just send it to Sal.

Hey dude, pass the mustard.   great job on your reel parts, should work good too,  let me know how the insert works for you, I,m a little joulous , but time will heal that. quit wishin, just go fishin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!gst.  I will mill your sidplate for the second dog like I did mine, if you want, takes 2 weeks turn around time,  see attatched photo.



anyway its an offer, wouldnt cost much, make a great Iron Tanker!!!!!!    gst.

[DaBigOno]

Very nice work gst!

I like the design of the spring, looks really heavy duty!!

Sweet Gary.  I've been meaning to do that for my ProGear 545s.  I am also looking at a way I can add a ARB on the gear sleeve as well.  It can be done...I know it, but just time and money...both of which I do not have.
