Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)

Well, Ole Bessie is back.  She’s been drug around and beat up, and she’s not gonna take it anymore.

Line X of Knoxville quoted me over $2000 to do the job.  LineX owner of Greenville SC quoted me $350.  When I couldn’t find any reasonable Crawdads for sale close by, I decided to try out this little experiment.
The results look nice so far.










Even got some new wheels, so I don’t have to drag her around anymore.  These hold up to 300 lbs.  Pretty nice.







We’ll see how she holds up.

$2000!Don't you hate to have your intelligence insulted by people trying to screw you? I had my first Supreme, a 20' long 48" bottom done for $800 total.

Looks awesome, however 300lbs weight bearing trailer.  What are you going to do with your other 25 rods, spare waders, 15 fly boxes, and of coarse jazzy.

Just saying,
Pal

Good look crawdad.  I have a flat we can put that on and pole around.
