Recall Johnson was out of reach for us meer mortals as a kid. Still big in Bass circuits. Etc. Open face was alien still. Old Zebs with really old line were the huckleberry. Probably missed Bass Pro greatness handicapped by old fragile line. Caught everything from 4’ pike to 9 lbs LMB to sunfish...

A-5 we’ve to figure out a PCM rod. Soft when you want soft, sensitive when you want sensitive, all backbone when needed. One rod to rule them all, Fly to Float. Not sure anyone is working in pcm meets carbon fiber space or if the tech is mature enough to be economical in this application but I...

How’d I miss this. I bet you did. I’m pretty slow going when driving but that’s get my attention.

Someday I’ll share the shotgun courthouse wedding story witnessed by residents of Vietnam who didn’t speak English then hiding it from her .Gov intelligence Dad for a few years finally faking a huge ceremony, lol. What a long strange trip it’s been.

Scarey thing about those who’ve grown up in environments that make 3rd world countries look like Resorts? Not too concerned about the downslide. I hear A-5 can squeeze us into his garage. We’ll be just fine. My 10 yo is asking why we don’t sell our every possession and live on a sailboat. No...

Early 40th b-day present I put capital behind my conviction. It’ll shake out where God intends. Seeing how I’ve failed to fully leverage all the oppty I’m given if it fails it’s my own doing and we roll on from the ashes of the trailer park.

I’m riding the crash to the bottom. I’ve always heard VCs say they invest in people not trying ideas. I invested in Vitalik. Guy amazes me with his perception at such a young age. If you’ve not heard his podcasts listen. Tim Ferris Show is a good start. He’s into Quadratic voting concepts from...

Yeah, BTC some see as digital currency, store of value, etc. In other news,,,, Way Down We Go,O,O,O

Love ya TC, still ain’t bunking with ya.

When Z said he had a 1 piece UL i pivoted but first instinct last spring was to try his ice jigging rods as a travel trout rod for my drives to CT. I cross a lot of nice water and CT stocks 5-600 Atlantics too.

My Bro catches everything from fat pickerel to 8 lbs hybrid steelhead trout on the 4’6” to 5’er. Amazed me until our youth derby, kid caught a 11-12 lbs angry trout on a ice fishing jig pole. His dad said it’s goofy but he catches most fish on it. I found a vid of a guy catching a 30 lbs king...

Those are favored by the Lifting crowd for NY king salmon so can’t be low reliability. I swam with my first salmon longer than I care to admit on a big spinning setup and their power wore me out. I cant imagine that repeated stress level on a fly reel. Most guys are running 9’ heavies to so not...

Hey now, Eth is so worthless I’ll take all you’ve got, $1USD ~ 1 ETH, It’s charitable work I’m doing. I’ll even trade you guns valued the same for ETH. Can probably find you some rust bucket SKS’s. Unicorn Snot is not at BassPro, only at Cabelas, err Academy, err Sportsman’s, err maybe...

I’m in for wherever, will try and remember to mark calendar at house

My wife texted me today we started dating today lots of years ago. I’ve not spoken to her since I left for GA. No clue on anniversary date or if it’s year 15 or more. Yep, she’s a saint, even emails me younger 2 kids birthdays, my mom’s, etc. Do what we can where we can. Might be misguided but...

Z can build me an xxx fast action one piece ul blank at 12’+ I’ll cover the line with Teflon impregnated lube and probably use a centerpin reel and a million lbs of weight.

I’ll use 2 lbs exotic unobtanium unicorn hair

U Yep, but not a BTC’er. I’m more into the founder than the invention. I bought in knowing I was investing in a dream that would likely fail. Plus, Eth had a use besides store of value or speculation. Just might die before realizing it, lol.

I’ll pay in worthless IOUs written in crayon. It’s all good!

I get it, just wouldn’t say above 6 lbs is ultralight. That’s salt/big salmon/pile territory.
