    Does not look easy on a raft. But if it pays
    it pays.

    my spool gun gives me 30 feet and i have a 50 foot extension for it. if possible i keep the gas on the truck, i don't like lugging the gas bottle. i can run an extension cord from my inverter, if that is what i am using, and run a hundred feet of argon line to the inverter. at this job i was running off the trailblazer. i cut most everything with a 7 1/4 in skill saw and cheap blades. i removed, somewhat visible at the centerpoint on the front, about 35 pounds of 1/2 in aluminum plate. again with skill saw and sawzall with demo blade. mullet are running, a few times during the night there were some very large fish moving beneath me.

    i have found that in a lot of cases, for me, the tig is pretty much useless. you really have to try the raft to fully appreciate it, each place you go to that is on the water has there own unit; not to mention when a boat passes and you bob up and down in its wake.
