Tks all for great thoughts/comments...I'll try some of your ideas next time out...When I have 3 in my boat we'll usually take turns, and that works good, but when 2 of us, and my buddy has all his own gear, I'd rather he not use mine, or me use his to reel anything in....and then at the end of the trip we at least offer to even things up a little....That said, there have been times where I have let him reel in a couple off my rods where my side definitely was the 'Hot Side'...so there may be more to be said about a 'hot side'/'cool side' theory also... BUT, I'll still have a good spray bottle handy to get the stink off....tks again....
