Nifty Noteables number 2 is an intresting find for a home made live bate well. I have been considering changing my fishing game and adding live bate to my arsenal. Maybe this could be a possible way to store your live bate. I would only have one problem with this option. You still have to catch your live bate. Some days I can't even do that. :-)

My last Nifty Noteables NO. 3 is an intresting HOME MADE version of the GoPro camera. With this version you simply mount a waterproof camera to the top of a helmets or hat. I have priced the GoPro camera and then the cheapest one sell for over 100 dollars. With this Instructable you can make one for a fraction of the cost. I have seen water proof cameras sell for as low as 15-20 dollars at our local pawnshops. So its definitely possible possible to make your own version of a GoPro camera for much less cost.
Here are a few pictures of what it looks like when it's done and a link to the instruction site of how to build your own if you would like to thank you for looking.

Today's first Nifty Noteables is a cool find from a company called Crane Creek Kayaks. I found this item while doing some research on an outrigger project I am building for my kayak. I am impressed with the ingenuity this designer has put into the design of this outrigger, I am sure once you see it you will agree.
It's called the STYRIGGER. The Styrigger comes in two basic models one for kayaks and one for canoes. The Styrigger looks simple enough run, and practical for all kayaking and canoeing needs.
According the Crane Creek Kayaks website, all you need to do is adjust your Styrigger to the level you feel most comfortable with, or to the level that suits your particular needs. For example if you would like to use your kayak to do stand up fishing, simply set you Styrigger so it makes contact with the water. When you do this your water craft have perfect stability while fishing. Maybe you just want the added security of knowing you will not be tipping over on rough waters while fishing. To achieve this you can set your Styrigger so they are just above the water line. This with give you the added piece of mind you are wanting and help you to glide along the water without anything slowing you down. Then finally in addition to the flexibility of differant Styrigger levels you have the added feature of folding them up when you don't want to use them at all.
I do know one thing for certain, with all the time and money I have invested into my little outrigger project, and I am nowhere near complete, I wished I would have known about the Styrigger. Purchasing one of these guys to begin with probably would have paid off for me in the long run.
Here is a video from their website, and a direct link so you can check out the Styrigger in action.
