    Do you give the young fellas sea sick tablets? Ive been on the kwells since the late 80s. Never go outside fishing withoht em sea sickness is a living nightmare so horrible

    • @johnnychowjc
      @johnnychowjc  9 месяцев назад +1

      Hey champ. I haven’t tried giving sea sick tablets to the boys. I will have to try find some kid friendly ones. I take the ET seasickness capsules which are for adults. It’s not fun being crook on the water. I have experienced it many times. That’s why I did two drops then bailed to give the family some reprieve!

    • @kamadowoah4584
      @kamadowoah4584 9 месяцев назад

      @johnnychowjc I used the ET tablets up the swains best Money I've spent in my life. Kwells do a kids formula. I'll have to try them berserker jigs they look nice
