Saw a spanish sail out of the water but never hooked one.

A Grad student at FSU is working on a complete study... but short story the mercury is concentrated in the dark meat around the lateral line of a fish.

I take my combos into the shower and use a warm gentle shower to rinse. Let 'em sit for a few minutes to dissolve the salt and then gentle rinse again. Back the drag washers completely off afterwards and let dry overnight. Haven't had any issues with reels using this routine. Is there an appropriat...
