carolinamike Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 JSC, thanks for letting us know. How bad is it? I really feel for him and know where he is coming from, on top of asbestoses, I was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago with emphysema. We will definatly keep him in our prayers. Keep us up to date on how he's doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Prager Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 I wish the best for Bojon.....great guy. For those pouring if you don't have an adequate ventilation system you are committing suicide. Nosebleeds, congestion and migraines are NOT a coincidence. I have Emphysema with 27% total lung function. I fished this weekend for the first time in 16 months because I don't have the energy to hook up the boat and go out by myself until I get a transplant. Was it caused by pouring for several years...........doubtful since I smoked for 40 and polished jewelry for 13. Did it aggravate it...................without a doubt! If you can smell it, then you're breathing it. Am I trying to scare you?..................damn straight, I am! Take it for what it's worth but I can't carry my kids for more than 100 feet. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the new pourers on this site take note of this post. I shudder every time I see a post about remelting store bought baits. The most important line in this post is "If you can smell it, then you are breathing it". If you are going to pour, provide good ventilation for your work area. My pouring station has a 1500 cfm gable end fan in it and it can actually move a thin stream of plastic but I never smell a thing. My opinion is a 160 cfm range hood is not cutting it and you are risking your health. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
