She’s in such good shape I’m worried I’d scratch it. I’m more of a “beach banger” kinda guy. One of the things I enjoy about my beaters are I don’t worry about appearance and just enjoy the...
This fish is by far in the best condition of any I had the pleasure of owning. I have a feeling I’ll be holding on to this one for a while. Might even name her.
