aint talkin shit. 100 sticks aday is very feasible. in the early 90's i was lead hook on fiber crew. TCI wouldnt let us jig more than 2 grand off 25 grand ft reels. everything else had to be roped and rollered off tse winches at 10 grand per drum. 3 winches running at once asist wheels, radios that hardly worked the whole 9 yards. my job on rope and roller day was to count every stick on the run from the prints, get the riley's loaded on the flatbed and hang everyone on a 1 foot bracket in front of the bucket 2 for 90's. challange was not to let the bucket catch you. 125 sticks a day was normal. busted my ass but made some good $$$. young bucks dont know days like these but i am living proof. old dawgs remember. smoke dope were runnin rope.
