    I dabble in DIY

    If anyone knows where I can find a blank comparable to a Sage One or X without selling an organ let me know. I’ve heard a few places overseas make the blanks and if you know the spec you can order direct from Alibaba or one of those sites. I’ve looked and can’t make heads or tails of half their...

    I dabble in DIY

    Yeah I can’t balance anything long but can’t cast centerpin on anything short for some reason. I drop the tip and longer rods help buy me some margin when I do it. I really like the look of a spey 12’ 5-6wt sage one for a float rod but A. Can’t find a blank or reasonable rod to strip and B...

    Yeah I’m tech fried, trying to teach myself 2-3 software packages and now navigate using rfid for SSO which I’m calling a “fail”. Add in challenges with internal IT I can’t seem to ever resolve and I’m ready for a technology break lol. Seriously, had to facilitate a call with app developers and...

    Well I don’t stay on topic well but I might know where you can catch a fish or two though TC might say otherwise.

    I wanted a liquid cooled case from Alienware but has to be here for Xmas. I have read Alienware/Dell isn’t hardware hacker friendly being all proprietary. Hard to say if I’ll bother swapping components but the option is nice I guess. I grabbed a Dell 32” Curved monitor on their Deal of the Day...

    While not fishing specific it will greatly increase the speed I can upload here, lol. I have a few Corp laptops, a All-In-One for my Tester, a new Surface 8, and a slew of tablets for the kids. My wife uses my spare work pc but the power supply is getting flakey. I use a P51 Engineering...

    When I fished up north on the jetties we used cut bait and sand worms with their head/pincers cut off. Kind of gross little buggers but Striper and blues liked them. I sort of remember hearing Fluke like them as well but it was decades ago now.

    Looks like a giant version of a Sculpin or whatever those little creek minnows are called. I used to catch them in my local creek as a kid.

    I’m not too up on news but last I heard it was live ammo. Did see some nonsense he claims he never pulled the trigger now. Assume the civil lawyers are speaking through him but he’ll pay I’m sure. It is more like limiting exposure by creating enough background noises. I expect any news feed will...

    Quick AM trip, lost a few caught a few. My brother caught his best brownie to date and I fillet for a meal this week. A hook jawed flat beaked 23”+ male. Caught in one of my favorite spots. Tough access but it hides some brutes. He thought I’d not believe he had an 8-10 lbs ‘Bow spit his hook. I...

    It’s a 20/2000 pretty small but still too heavy I think. On the one piece I’d like it in an 8’6” one piece lol be real hard to move then.

    Splitshot pliers, hoping they do better than fly split shot pliers. I use the earless now for everything and go through 20-40 split shot adjusting for each run/pool/hole.

    Another option might be the new Deviant AntiX or Bighorn offers a nice CRF barrel swapping/bolt head swapping action as well. Manners and McMillan are chasing $1k for a stock if you have a year to wait. Element seems to have fizzled. Chassis are coming down in weight but still a pound or more...

    If you don’t mind buying guns from Mormons, I wouldn’t care personally but some consider it odd I guess, DTacs SRS A2 puts all kinds of calibers in your hands with a quick swap and goes up to Cheytac if your looking at miles vs yards. If I wasn’t so gun adverse a 338 LM or the recently...

    Don’t own guns but if I did I wouldn’t worry about a semi being an issue. 556 is small and yeah lots of bullets in a unrestricted mag but they aren’t exactly light. Don, you ever hunt out west or LR the last thing you’d want to hump up mountains is anything built on an AR-10 platform. Yeah...

    Oversized fat tiger trout on the really light rod RandyZ made me. Always hard to tell but the biggest trout look smallest in a stretchy net. Had an 8–10 lbs ‘Bow but it somehow slipped the massive hook in its gullet. That would’ve been a rodeo on this rod. Need to find a lighter reel. This small...
