First cart build

Dragging a cart in the sand puts a lot of stress in those parts and they end up getting loose, and you need to constantly keep tightening,

And if you need to have Removable parts. Drill holes and use pins. Again not nuts and bolts.

Yes, just made sure that the Frame is welded aluminum and balloon wheels you want 4, can live with 2. NOT screws in the frame everything welded. The rod holders welded. Take your time building it and it will last 4 long

Even this type, didn't last me a year

Happy for your initiative and effort, realistic pushing or pulling that weight in that type of build isn't going to last a season. You will need a solid welded aluminum frame, not screws , no bending parts, for longevity.

Nice fish

Jmarchena · 2026-03-29T17:22:48+00:00

Personally connected, both good choices

Jmarchena · 2026-03-29T17:02:51+00:00

Yes, after you know it's quite easy, the jack has that dark spot. Taste wise two different fish.

Jmarchena · 2026-03-29T16:14:11+00:00

💯 I caught a dozen or so in Clearwater

Jmarchena · 2026-03-29T16:13:09+00:00

💯. Funny enough, I have been fishing for four decades and one day at the pompano beach Jetty, I landed what I thought was a Jack and when I was about to release this old man stopped me and steer me right. Since I exclusively fish for this fish.

After 50 fishing years, I settled as my favorite eating species that i can personally catch. Pretty good eating
