The Old Man banding lobster claws aboard the Bonnie Lass Summer 1966
And other times if the rubber was worn ye could go like a fiddler's elbow and ye could have peed mair than the water that came oot the side o' the boat (and often as no it went ower the deck as well)..the Whale pump was a great machine when it was in tip top order though,the big yins could fling some water oot.
Ronnie,if only he invented the lobster band you would be even more famous,i take it he would be usin coorline
We did have rubber bands right enough,got them from Burgon in Eyemouth,but I've a funny feeling we had run out of them that day and he was using strands of red coureline to tie them.He was a helluva lot faster than the rest of us at getting them tied,that's how he's doing it himself.
when tied wi, the twine it wis jist done like whippin the end o, a rope,
when bands run oot ye jist improvise, fishin is 90% improvisation..

Mair like 25% dedication,motivation,improvisation and perspiration :whistle: :whistle:
well thats fower x25% makes 100% then ye need the other 10% thats usually pit intae it and yer cookin by gas laddie..
sometimes you could get them goin with vigorous pumpin withoot primin,
