| My grandfather was a journalist, specializing in outdoor/boating
recreation in the late 40s, 50s and 60s. Sometime around 1950 he
published a piece on building a wooden johnboat, using research he did
among the boatbuilders in the Ozarks of Missouri. I think it might
have run in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. (May have played in one of
the outdoors/pop. mechanics type of mag. as well.) He was always proud
of that piece. He and my father built the boat together, and the story
was a kind of father/son DIY project. They used, IIRC, solid oak (the
traditional ozark material). Sucker musta been heavy!
Gotta ask dad if he's got a copy.

I'm not sure I'd like my "bait" dangling over the side.
