From Weid's post, to not pollute the respectable Gear forum with trivial banter...

Can someone explain to me why Bass fishermen need a full face helmet?

who knows, but an oxygen for $195 vs $300, gotta wonder. -- those boats do go pretty fast in shallow water, and with sharp hooks flying all about, besides -- if the boat funnels.....

Funny concept but yes it's for wearing while doing 75 or 80 across the water in the boat. I had a friend that hit a piece of drift would doing 75. Flipped the boat and damn near killed him. Helmets arent a bad idea. Funny mental pic though of two guys casting with helmets on....LMAO

Dude, I have no idea...I DID have a friend who's boat got away from him and hit the shore of the river kinda hard, and he flipped out into the trunk of a tree...At the hospital, before they gave him a head x-ray, they gave him an enima...don't ask...I can't answer...tee-hee...

It is effective. Game Wardens usually dont like it much...
Reminds me of a joke.
A game warden went out one day to see how Bubba always managed to catch so many fish. They get out in the middle of the lake and Bubba opens up a box of dynamite. He lights a fuse and hands it to the Game warden. The game warden starts to protest but Bubba just asks if he wants to talk or fish?
