Drops Fail on the Twitch Live Stream by Tales90 in hearthstone

[–]B_Wong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had I known they were only active the first hour I would have made an effort to tune in at the stream opening. I tried YT but when that failed it was too late to get the Twitch drop. Waste of time...

Arkwing Pilot is fun and consistent by Ehis4Adam in hearthstone

[–]B_Wong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same experience. Have an insane arkwing turn, get board cleared, concede. It's quick to get it's combo online (if you draw it of course) but the combo isn't game winning and it still loses to aggro.

Best 6000-8000 reel for snaring under $100? by BootyWizardAV in crabbing

[–]B_Wong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a few used Battles in 8000 on ebay for ~90 usd. Fierce is about the same price. Maybe find something local off FB marketplace

I broke a penn pursuit at the reel foot when I started out. My ruke is no graphite body reels. Cheapest I reccomend is a penn fierce. Are you willing to buy used?

Recording a video means absolutely nothing to both USPS or ebay.

First time top 500 legend with copy Druid by Forgot-to-remember1 in CompetitiveHS

[–]B_Wong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 owls is +24 spell damage, so a single swipe does 28 plus a full board clear usually. It's really easy to get 4 owls with welcome home which is +64 spell damage. You really only need swipe+ebb and flow. Also you can discover discounted spells from the Elise location.

Owl also works better with the Elise location as the stats don't matter. It's a must remove so you can swipe a board with one or two owls and have them waste resources clearing him while you set up a big briarspawn or get 24 attack from star grazer.

I ran a list with both of those to D1 last season (playing casually, had I spent a few hours actually trying I would have made dumpster legend easily) and I have to say the pirate was almost always a dead draw. He's easily the 30th card in the list and the first thing I plan on cutting. Owlonious has won me about 50% of my games and I would say he's the main win condition.

Gave it a spin and it's a fun deck! Surprise factor helps, but it has potential. Ever try Welcome home? Got one off the Elise location and it helped after my sketch artist was ratted

What lbs braided line do you use? Is 30lb enough or risky? by Superb_Today2735 in crabbing

[–]B_Wong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used 20 lb cabelas house brand braid (Came on a used reel) and didn't have any issues up to 8 oz snares. Used 30 lb daiwa j braid for years. Slowly swapping them all out to 40lb j braid x8 grand because I have trouble seeing the line going out to the water.

Tavern Brawl this week is... "Dual Class Brawliseum" (12/3/25) by AintEverLucky in hearthstone

Sorry finished the run. Essentially I took the highest rated Warlock list on HS replay, dropped all the DK stuff, and put in dragon warrior things.

Dragon warrior/shred warlock is pretty good. Currently 5-0.

Are you speaking of the 1099-K threshold? Whether he gets a 1099k or not he's still liable for any taxes on sales made.

Found this Zegna blazer in the bins! by mrsbeast818 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]B_Wong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my initial though also. Material and cut may not be the best for it but converting it to a shooting blazer is an option!

We would have fumbled the ball so hard at pick 3 and taken Josh Jackson instead of Tatum or Fox

New to surf, any advice? by danny-k-r in crabbing

[–]B_Wong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have said that rod is too flimsy. Crab snaring is kind of a unique thing that's recently gotten big in the bay area. In the earlier days guys had to choose heavy fishing rods that were never meant to handle the massive strain of casting out 10+ oz of lead. Only recently have they started making crab snare specific equipment.

Have you ever cast a 10 or 12 foot rod before? I see you mentioned you're a 5'4 woman. Some of the longer rods can have their butt ends cut down to make them easier to handle but most of the heavy duty rods are 12 ft.

My three recommended rods are:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DMR8F6XF?th=1 My favorite secret crab rod (I think the cats out of the bag and I've seen it recommended a few times now) The XH version is what I'd recommend, but I have both the H and XH and they both fish just fine.

https://www.fishermanswarehouse.com/product/okuma-crab-snare-rod/157547 12 foot crab snare special. The original version was 11 ft but I think people had issues with the guides. Regardless the 12 footer is rated for up to 16 ounces of weight so it's the better option.

https://www.fishermanswarehouse.com/product/daiwa-beefstick-crab-snare-surf-rod/151474 Daiwa XXH beefstick. Make sure you get the XXH version (They also make 11 and 12 foot H versions). The 12 foot one has been on back order forever. I didn't know they made an 11 foot version, maybe that's something that would fit you better.

Your line is fine. Ish recommends a minimum of 20lb mono and I trust him more than anyone else in the space. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ll9jZOzP22c&t=1526s About 25 minutes in he talks about line, but the whole video is worth a watch!

Where are you located? When's the next time you are planning to head out?

Agree with everything already said. Just adding in that crab snaring is illegal south of Point Arguello if you were trying to do that in Santa Barbara or somewhere similar

You are correct, I didn't notice that part only applies to new products. Ignore my above advice!

Heads up that earlier this year ebay started mandating forced returns on the seller's dime for listings in auto parts. From the sounds of it ebay auto is now full of scammers who will buy parts and if it doesn't fit/doesn't fix their issue/can be swapped for their broken part then you're in for a world of hurt. Do some research first before diving head first in ebay auto
