In Response To: Re: deck lines (Bill Hamm)

In winter can you grab deck lines wearing gloves or pogies?

The pogies stay on the paddle.
I agree that it's important to have lines that can be grabbed easily; lines that are held very tight to the deck don't work well.
Some paddlers put plastic 'beads' or small styrofoam net floats on the lines to lift them off the deck.
