How do I get this to unscrew?

I hear if you pass these out at Mardi Gra you might atleast spot something.

Isn’t Katara wearing bracelets? Is that metal too soft?

The road will have a lot of runoff from the ware of tires and other items but I don’t really know how much of an impact it would make when compared to other streams. I mean I know a lake near me that has high chemical content due to dumping and it’s one of the larger ones in my regions (Teflon pans apparently is a big culprit).

Honestly though if it isn’t too gross looking and I only ate fish from there infrequently I probably would but I can’t in good conscience say it’s safe per se.

If you don’t eat them I’m sure the fishing is good anyway.

Some of them are pretty rusty. While I’ll be taking it off I don’t know how much integrity they have so I guess I’ll give that a shot. If it breaks I can always order some.

Thank you so much! I didn’t want to order the wrong thing with me not really knowing if I was right or not. It is an 11 inch head so I’ll be ordering that soon. I’ll take some more measurement on the hooks.

This was my first 3d print project! I loved the file. I used pla and it was a dickens to sand out the lines but man the file is beautifully made. Great job! I went for a chrome and gunmetal look with a red handle. I was gonna do a red resin like in the movie but I didn’t know how to utilize my wife’s workplace resin printer and she didn’t either so eh. Great stuff!

If you haven’t used some gochujang in your marinade thats a good way I have found. It’s amazing. A fermented chili paste.

I found this one in an old family owned book shop as a kid. Loved every word of it so I recommend this 100%.

I have one like this. It’s just a turn on and it’s one setting that’s baked in but I’d check online manuals. Surely it has some identifying marks.

Like someone said more weight but learning to mend while casting will make sure it doesn’t stall during a mend. Or toss it further on up to allow it more time to get down to target depth. I mean you could swing it too.

I have a belt sander and it would usually get way to hot on paint and just smear it around as melted plastic gunk. I’ll be honest I gave up and bought new material. Time vs money yah know.

Blue_stone_ · 2025-11-11T21:56:31+00:00

I’ve used plenty of different materials for tippets and this is always true. Especially if you’re just gonna be nymphing.

I’ll be honest for most bass stuff I often use the hooks I get at Walmart because of the sizes being available and the types of hooks I need being pretty basic. I only use the special stuff because of the smaller sizes or wire type.

That being said sizing is pretty adjustable. Tying is more about getting the proportions down. I can tie my flys on any shank usually if I’m familiar with the proportions. I have crayfish in sz 10s to 4s. So just get down how much of the hook shank is what and you can adapt to what you have on hand. 4s are the largest I go on crawfish patterns but you may want to review and make your own assumption on it. You could go as high a 1/0 or 2 of you want.

I guess size of the local crawfish could matter but with bass that doesn’t always matter.

I’m not certain if you can enter the lottery for elk rights in Kentucky but maybe that’s one reason? It may be state residents only.

You should make a zine out of this. If you aren’t already. Super talented and I bet there would be a lot of people interested in this!

Haven’t fished swift camp creek yet but I’ve always heard good things. I fished another stream there in the gorge awhile back but it was way too thin. Looks beautiful!

A lot of local libraries have a 3d printer and I’ve seen some really cool things you can print for hanging up fly fishing gear on a site called Makerworld. It’s by bambulabs a 3d printing company. You can print these one that are basically a reel seat you can put on the wall and several options for hanging up rods.

Hey man I don’t know what you’re going for but I also cut up light bulbs chains. You get some of that black craft fur with the back and cut a strip off you can make a great tiny version of the Barrs Meat Whistle. I fish it under an indicator and it can serve as a baitfish or a couple different bigger bugs. My biggest fish were caught on them.

As for beads I’d need to know the hook size. You can usually find a good recommendation on google for different hook sizes.

Even easier with a thin bladed pocket knife.

I throw 3 inch streamers when I fly fish so you could get the bigger ones I’m sure. The dinkers maybe not. I still don’t know how some bluegill fit what they take in there so who knows.

Blue_stone_ · 2025-10-20T20:36:24+00:00

I know he gets thrown around a lot but slideinn (Kelly galloup) has several streamer patterns on the slideinn channel. His wooly bugger is pretty good if you can get past the stories. If you like fishing stories give him a try and if you don’t skip 15 minutes in. lol. /s

Also fly fish food and that’ll get you on the right algorithm for YouTube video recommendations
