They look nice. I just can't really wear slip ons due to my foot height. My oldest wears Hey Dudes and swears by them. I wasn't a flip flop wearer until I started working from home. Got used to wearing them around the house.

Anyone know if they sell the sized Baseball caps like the team wears? I have a hard time finding hats that fit and if they are fitted then they usually fit better and in porportion

None of them are out. Just in the holders. We are on the way out off shore. We went out about 12 miles. Had a fantastic day too. Even got a small goliath grouper. I dont troll which is what you are thinking is going on there. I hate trolling out there. It is boring AF. We cast and drop on them. Today was dropping on them. They did a great job today and all their asses will be tired tonight. It was the first time offshore for 2 of them
Just a few of the near 70 fish the 3 of them caught with me this morning in 5 hours...

Wake up at 3:45 - Out of the house here by 4:30 after shower/load up truck
Arrive at boat storage by 5am - Out of boat storage by 5:30 after loading up boat and ice
Arrive at boat ramp by 6am
Spend 1.5 hours throwing cast net to catch bait
Pick up customers at ramp at 7:30
Fish 4-5 hours
Clean fish back at ramp - usually 15-20 mins
Take boat out and drive back to boat storage
Spend 1hr - 90 min cleaning / desalt boat
30 min drive back home.
Unload truck
So I leave my house at 4:30 and get back home around 2-3 for a 4 hour fishing trip.
Every stinking trip.

Glad you got that going. How was taking your test for the license?

Not that it matters but I always thought you were a black man

Bro, Im not going to lie, it was very involved. I did that last March. I was very surprised how much work I had to put in to that. I bought a online training class from the Coast Guard about four years ago. Once you activate it, you only have 12 months to finish. I never activated it because we were moving and I was busy but last February I activated it and started going through those sessions. I figured it would be something I would spend a few hours going through the training and then just take the test. Yeah, not so fast, my friend.
You go through the training and take quizzes and test along the way and you can't move on until you basically master everything in that section. Which is OK with me because I'm fairly OCD and wanted 100% before I moved on. Then you do some end of the class practice test for the big exam that the Coast Guard gives you which also was no joke.
There's four sections to the test and you have to make a 90% on each section to pass. If you fall below the mark on one section, it's a complete failure you have to start over. I made 100% on two of the sections, missed one question on one of the sections and two on the other section and passed with flying colors, but to be honest, I probably spent 100 hours of my time going through the material. It was no joke. And I'm not being a dick here, but it makes me wonder how some of these knuckleheads got their Captain's license.
Then, of course, once you get the test done, there are many other things that have to be done before you can get your United States Coast Guard captains license. CPR, first aid, pass a drug test, pass a background test, full government, physical, and receive a TWIC card.
Like I said, I know I spent over 100 hours just on the material to take the test and the whole thing probably cost me $1500-$2000 but it was worth it and I'm glad I did it.

I was gifted crocs for Christmas last Christmas and I cant take them off
In one dayI could wear them to the gym, to the mall, in the public shower, and at a creek.
Comfortable and versatile.

I have a pair that I wear in the shop. Hard concrete floor and they are nice and soft and comfy. I am determined to never wear them in public though.

I am so demented I am literally wearing them on the treadmill at a public gym right meow

Yea, I have it flying on the front of the house now. I will take it on the boat when we go to the sandbars. Just a little something to keep the liberals in my subdivision up at night.
