Second for Bob Wyatt

I went out with Bob last year with a friend - he was a great guide, great boat to fish from, and a really nice guy as well! I am planning to take my son out with him this year.

So what about in winter with salt? I go to the carwash regularly to get the underneath clean and salt free. If I get ceramic, will going to the carwash hurt it, or you're saying its just unnecessary?
