  1. Made my day right there!
  2. Weird strike zones in the college World Series…
  3. Consistency and price mostly. If the small pizza shop you’re patronizing isn’t a place you’ve had before it can be a huge roll of the dice. Also, kids. And kids’ birthday parties.
  4. If you make the perfect cast, you will foul on your hook or a leaf or a random filament of something that shouldn’t be there.
  5. I only use it on my reels with Big Game on them. Used together they are full blown magic. ??
  6. Just like marriage, until they’re happy again.
  7. I doubt the clarity is affecting them. It’s more likely the warm water temperatures that go with the blooms and the post spawn blues that are decreasing their activity.
  8. ‘Tis but a flesh wound…
  9. I’ve never been a huge fan of anything finished in a port cask.
  10. I had a fresh Apple fritter from OMG in Concord NC one morning while taking my kid and his friends to Great Wolf Lodge. It was the best doughnut I’ve ever had, and I’ve had A LOT.
  11. I love this thread. That is all.
  12. Also: https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/29/health/leg-muscles-heart-attack-study-wellness/index.html Don't skip leg day!
  13. It’s not limitations that limit you. It’s not recognizing them. Age is just a number. A number that hurts. ?
  14. Freshwater cod/ling?
  15. I was gonna say - where did you tie in to that thing? It looks like your line slid and probably just about cut it in half.
  16. Also lighter line helps those small houses work better. Light fluoro even better still.
  17. Barf. But at least it’s not Crimson and it doesn’t have a Gator on it. GBO!
  18. Big fishing is like hunting - you’re looking for a spot to run into a big fish. Find those spots for your water and fish an appropriate bait for those spots.
  19. For advice - When you feel that buzz and tug of a fish, set the hook. Hard. Otherwise it sounds like you got it.
  20. There’s literally a few dozen solutions, paper towel tubes being the cheapest and it goes up through Tupperware to custom boxes from there.
  21. Google ‘bait wallet’ and then pick the size you need at whatever price point. I like Lakewood and have a large box by them. There’s also a ton of videos on the Swimbait websites about making hanging carriers from small Rubbermaid boxes.
  22. There’s wallets similar to a spinner bait wallet, there hanging boxes you can make yourself, 3700 boxes with hooks or a rubber band at the end to hold the head, etc. there’s a million different solutions, just depends on how many baits
  23. I have a couple c-10s on my ultralight rods. They are about 500 sized at best so I would think the c-20 is 1000 and the c-30 is 2000/2500ish. Ymmv really good reels for the price though
  24. Lost one kayaking long ago - Flipped it open to answer a call or take a pic and it kept going. It worked for about the first twenty feet of depth. Lost a pair of sunglasses reaching for it. That 3 seconds cost me about $500.
