No Noodles in Fairbanks.

I've been reading older topics and was tring to follow advice that was given for floatation safety. Unfortunately, no Pool Noodles to be found in town. Guess I'll have to put in a Craigslist add.

Take a different tack and look for the water hose wrap at a hardware store.  Usually this is closed-cell foam.

I use this stuff to hold frequently accessed lures handy on the boat.

Thanks for the tip.
