Hi, I'm dockboy. I'm a serious fisherman for anything that swims but flyfishing is right up there in my passion with fishing for bass. On a recent trip to the Sierras, my dad & I were fishing from our 14 ft. Valco & were having a great time except for the fact of me casting a fly rod in the bow section without harpooning my dad or myself. As we were heading in, my dad had an idea about a casting deck for me when flyfishin'. He said that, once we could draw a template & get measurements, we could have his stainless steel guy at work build a "temporary" deck strecthing from the end of the middle seat to the bow end. I already tried to persuade my dad into building a permeanent front deck on our boat but he won't, so this maybe my chance at some form of deck. This way the deck could removed if it waasn't needed. Will the deck be stable enough to support me? Would it add too much weight to the boat? I know we would use thick stainless steel but would this be a fruitless attempt? :o

Bass + Fisherman= BAASS ADDICTT!!!
