What an amazing story! Thanks so much for sharing it. Your Dad's staff sounds like it not only was a help, but brought to mind many memories for him of good friends he served with. Hope that my video was a help to you and that it might inspire you to make a staff that will create special memories for you as well. Thanks so much for watching and sharing about your Dad and may God bless you in every way!

Thank you so much for your encouragement. Thanks too for watching and may God bless you brother!

I wish the over the shoulder hack was my idea, but I can't take the credit it comed from another RU-vidr whose channel is called Kayak hacks. It's a great idea thought and he deserves the credit. I thought I would share it while showing how to add the paracord handle grip! Glad you found the video a help! Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

Thank you!!!

You're so welcome!

Good tip! Thanks for sharing that. Thanks too for watching and may God bless you!

Thank you and may God bless you!

Thanks and glad you liked the video. The carrying idea I got from a fellow youtuber (Kayak hacks fishing) so I can't take credit for that, but love the way it works and keep my stick out of the way. Thanks for watching and may God bless you!

Glad the video was a help to you! As far as the polycrylic goes, I had it on hand because I make many of my own fishing lures and I dip my saltwater bucktails in the polycrylic and then hang them to drip dry. I use stick on eyes for the bucktails and the poly leaves a nice coating over them sealing them in. They take a great deal of abuse in the saltwater, sand and the rocks and hold up extremely well. I wouldn't think the walking stick would be any different. The poly seems more flexible than the urethane which I think adds to its sealing ability. I hope that helps! Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

I'm sure it makes a beautiful stick. Thanks for sharing and watching and may God bless you!

We are so welcome and glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

Thank you so much and may God bless you richly my brother!

Thanks so much Mark for the encouraging words! God bless you my friend!

You are so welcome! The thing I love about my staff is that it feels so sturdy in my hand and so I put more trust in it to hold me. Plus it is something I built and it saved me money. I hope you have much success with yours and stay safe out on the water. Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

That is a great tip and the markings can even double as a fish measuring scale. Thanks for sharing that and for watching and may God bless you!

You are so welcome. Thanks for watching and may God bless you!

Scott thanks so much for taking the time to share your encouraging words! I really appreciate them an the support you give. No matter how you got bumped we are so happy to have you aboard again as a subscriber! We really appreciate it! Thanks so much too for watching and may God bless you richly my friend!

Thanks so much for sharing your ideas with me. It is always good to gather thoughts and learn from others. It sounds like you project will be a lot more detailed than mine, and I am sure it will serve you well. Keep up the great work and thanks too for watching. May God bless you richly!

Thank you and may God bless you richly!

Thanks. That isn't usually where I fish though. Only sometimes. They closed off the access road to my favorite spot last year so I can't get into that area unless I wade down the creek. Thanks for watching and the encouragement! Talk to you soon!

Thank you so much for your encouragement. Thank you too for watching and ma God bless you!

Thanks! I'm sorry I didn't include that in the video as it is a good point. I was more focused on showing how to use the staff that I forgot about showing what to do with the rod. There are a few options: 1) Hold it under your arm (I don't recommend that one because if you stumble you could lose you rod) 2) Make or purchase a belt clip on rod holder 3: Some fishing vest have a loop and latch where you can secure your rod vertically and works well for tying on new lures as well 4) This is the simplest and probably the best. Just place the rod horizontally close to the reel across the one side of "T" and grab both the rod and the top of the staff together. That way you always have a firm grip on your rod and you don't need an additional device to secure it. Hope that helps. Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

Wow, Gods handy work at its best.

So glad you liked the video! Thanks too for watching and may God bless you!@@danieljuarez-ln7sn

Yup. Good tip. Thanks for watching and may God bless you!

So glad you found the video a help and thanks too for your encouraging words. I just wanted to encourage you in your closing words. It is so important that we believe, but it is even more important in what we believe and why. A religion is a repetition of things we say and do, that can never save us, but the bible instead calls us into a relationship with God that can. Much different. For so long I felt I was good enough to get to heaven (most of us do). I believed in God and even went to church on occasion. But I failed to understand one thing and that is that I was a sinner that needed a savior. When you and I look at our life against the 10 commandments (Exodus chapter 20) we can see that we are all liars, thieves, adulterers, and more. We all fall way short of God's standard for being good enough (Romans 3:23). We have all turned our back on God. My sin separated me from God and Jesus paid the fine to buy me back (Romans 6:23). When I came to realize that God wanted to have a restored relationship with me and my trust in Jesus was the only thing that could restore it I believed (John 14:6). Once we can understand our need to be forgiven we can turn from our sin and put our faith In Jesus to save us. But believing in Christ needs to be like belief in a parachute to save us. When we trust Jesus to save us with that type of faith and have a change of heart knowing why we need him he will. I'm not sure what you are trusting in today, but I'd encourage you to read the bible for yourself and some of the verses I inserted here to make sure that what you believe in matters. Eternity is a long time and if any of us die in our sins not knowing Jesus as savior hell not heaven will be our final destination and there are not second chances so please if you haven't already seek after God today and put your faith in the only one who can save you, Jesus. I speak this all to you with much love. Thanks again so much for taking the time to share and comment and may God bless you richly as you seek after him!

@@thefrugalsportsman thank you for that... i got alot of work ahead of me lolol;];];]

You are so welcome and thank you so much for watching and sharing! May God bless you!

I guess it all depends on what you want to use it for. It is the right height for me for the ways in which I showed how I use it in the video. If it were longer it might interfere with my walking when stored over my shoulder and it allows me to get the right lean when crossing a stream or river. Some people might like a tall straight staff for walking, but that would go against the design I came up with for my personal use. Hope that helps. Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

Did I say them backwards and mix them up in the video? That's funny! Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

@@thefrugalsportsman U have the great Day ❣️

Thanks so much and may God bless you richly!

Thanks so much for watching and for those words of wisdom! They are much appreciated. Thanks again and may God bless you richly!

And don't forget to leave a carrot out for rudolph

You appear offended that I would share about Jesus. That wasn’t my goal, but think for a minute if the truth and freedom you found was truly something you believed to be real, why would it matter what I shared? It’s funny you mention truth. In the Bible in John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. I share about Jesus because it is all that really matters. Many people claim to have found the truth, but would they be willing to stake their life, as well as eternity on their decision to follow it? Someday each of us will stand before God and give account and the real truth is that unless we place our faith and trust in Jesus we will face hell because we rejected the gift of God’s own son to save us in exchange of a lie. It’s out of love for others that I share the truth about Jesus and how we can know God through him. He said he is the only way. No other truth can save us. All I do is share that message. What others do with it is between them and God. I will be praying that God shows himself to you in a very real and incredible way so that you might experience all he has for you and know the truth about who he is and can be to you. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts and may God bless you!
