    Buying an electric car

    I have mixed feelings regarding EV's. My first was a Toyota Prius Hybrid. It was okay, didn't require any charging, and overall combined gas mileage was around 51 MPG. Now I have a Hyundai Sonata PHEV (Plug in). I like the fact that it is a heavier car, feels like a full sized sedan. Drawback...

    any fishermen here?

    I,ve been following Salt Strong aka www. fishstrong.com They are currently promoting a new soft bait called Alabama Leprechaun and showing a tandem rig called "Double Leprechaun or Donkey Rig" which looks quite interesting. Their members club is a bit pricey but you get a lot of stuff, videos...

    fishing for Halibut, caught a Tern!! Okay, so I got this Lucky Craft Golden shiner (sinking) bait with fantastic action. Casts easily and great distance. Shortly after it hits the water, the line suddenly spins off the spool. Heck, I got a "biggin" I thot. But a Tern had dived quickly and took...

    blade shaming a thing ?

    The discussion between blades, MB's, CB's, has been going on forever. For me I really cannot discern that much difference other than a bit of sting on miss hits, but I believe that has more to do with forged vs cast, which is a whole other subject. I simply prefer the smaller profile of the...

    Any motorcycle owners out there?

    friend of mine posted on a mc forum regarding electronic cruise control. Otherwise I used to use an assist thumb grip made by Kuryakyn which worked very well. oh, just remembered, it was called Throttle Boss.

    any fishermen here?

    took a look at them and others. I finally ended up with a Penn Fathom 30LD2. It is a lever drag, two speed retrieval, all metal housing and side plates. Found a deal online and saved $70. (they offered a price match guarantee and I found one). I highly recommend Tackle Direct. Depending on where...

    Any motorcycle owners out there?

    First bike was a 124cc Italian Benelli (sp), it was a one cylinder thumper but sounded like an old panhead.. Since then, I have owned several, Yamaha, Kawi's. Probably started riding in early 60's. California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Baja. I posted a link above to my old MC Blog that if you look...

    any fishermen here?

    regarding use of the Tactical Angler clips, I note that different lures require different size clips. Some jig heads have very tiny apertures and the clips are too thick. They do have a micro size that fit however. Problem is you have to retie if you need to change out the clips. My solution is...

    any fishermen here?

    i am also considering getting conventional reel for sport fishing, nothing too heavy. The Penn Senator Special 112H is a pretty good deal. Probably would spool it with 30# mono. Only concern I have is how it would cast for surface presentation. Some have said it is more of a bottom fishing reel...

    any fishermen here?

    yah, I don't consider my current spinning combo be especially light as it would be good for some relatively heavier off shore, but the rod I have is kind of light (6 ft 6in Ugly Stick Elite). I will probably get a bait caster such as Penn Warfare or Senator and a heavier rod. My license permits...

    any fishermen here?

    my spinner is braid ready, no need for backer (built into the spool). It is Penn Battle III. I used to fish a lot, had my own boat e.t.c. but it has been a long time and I had gave away all my gear. Even had a yak which I had flipped off the coast in 300 ft of water/Great White habitat, which...

    any fishermen here?

    yep, learning quickly. I currently have 30 lb braid with 9 ft FC 14 lb. Using Tactical Angler clips between end of FC and have sliding weight below that with Caroliner keeper between middle of FC and terminal end. This way I can detach the "extra" leader with swivel from the main leader with the...
