    Might be a dumb question

    Will a fly high fat brick float?

    #2
    LOL! I know the answer to this and wasnt looking to find out!

    No, a brick wont float, even when hooked to a 200 lb guy. I slipped off the platform of Bad05's boat holding a full one and we were both going down. Bad05 dove in and grabbed the other handle just in time.

      If it has some air in it to equalize the weight of the bag it will.

        Yep... the bag fabric is heavier than water so it will sink when empty. Water in a full bag has the same specific gravity as water outside the bag, so it factors out. That leaves the original weight of the bag, offset against any air trapped inside it. A totally full bag will thus sink just like a totally empty one, while one with some air may float depending on how much air vs. weight of bag.
