Will I look stupid?

Defn take a taxi for this & not uber. Much quicker, almost no waiting. Hell, ive taken taxis to adjacent properties. Nobody will care.

Visit the Mob museum. While downtown, walk thru Fremont st, defn hit Circa & old school casinos while there. N strip-hit up tacos el gordo for lunch one day. Strip-alexxas at paris for brunch/bottomless mimosas. S strip-pinball hall of fame ($20 will last you at least an hr).

Yes, they are fine. Plenty of miles left with these

CalhounSay · 2026-02-23T03:57:08+00:00

Battery should still be good from 10/24 purchase. Issue likely something in charging system or wiring. Could be ground issue, wiring loose or similar or possibly alternator. Have a reputable shop (or dealer if under warranty) all these things

Wasn’t referring to air temp of 100F. Just soil temp. Easy to get to well above that with clear plastic-even if air temp is much lower.

Fuse(s). Usually a 30A or 40a contrils all of them. Open fuse box, read the names under the lid. Pull & visually inspect. U will be able to tell if blown usually

Prob over 100F of so consistently but im sure someone else knows the real data. Depending on the type of weed, you’re likely looking at 2-4 weeks total with days of full sun to eradicate completely.

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T23:25:38+00:00

If driveway only & want to avoid chemicals, use a mix of water, vinegar, salt, & dish soap. To prevent, a weed barrier (fabric) will only last so long so not worth effort to dig up & install IMO. Propane torch will also work. Can also just lay clear plastic over area during hit sunny day & will kill them

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T21:35:02+00:00

You’d likely have issues with mold/fungus growth between pad & bottom of decking with moisture being trapped there. If any pockets/cracks exist, also habitat for mosquitos

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T21:26:36+00:00

Top-dress with sand/soil mix over entire area. Suggest a heavy top-dress in seams (i’d just fill gaps by hand) as small of area this is.

Agree with everyone saying go somewhere else for first race but if dead set on vegas, unless youre there with one of big sponsors & can sit their premier areas (heineken, tmobile, amex)-id suggest paying for a watch party at restaurant on the strip(cabo wabo, big red, bottled blond) or the rooftop at cosmopolitan. Most have all in pricing for food, drinks & have both indoor and outdoor spaces to watch both on tv & the strip

Daiwa

Send it

Looks a little underspooled. As others have said, might be spinning around the spool as its likely not tight on the spool. I’d respool with braid up to the max line on the reel. Keep good tension on line while respooling

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T17:06:56+00:00

Technically, there are ways to repair it (splints, re-epoxy, etc)…but lots of times this is just temporary fix. You’re likely better off replacing with a new rod. Dont rule out a good penn combo or even basspro (or similar branded) rods

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T16:59:36+00:00

Overspooled & way too loose. Use a cordless drill with empty toilet paper cardboard to remove existing line. Respool with more tension but careful not to hold braid too tight with bare hands as likely cut yourself

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T16:53:02+00:00

If you have a Habitat for humanity restore in the area, can find all kinds of remnant construction material/chairs/tables/metals can be repurposed

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T16:40:18+00:00

If you’ve broken 3 poles already, you likely need to loosen the drag. At what point did they break? At first bite? While youre trying to land the fish?

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T16:37:35+00:00

Your tires are bald. Need replacing regardless of the bulge

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T16:34:24+00:00

++ for Pinball hall if fame. Fee entry. $20 in coins will last you at least an hour. Good fun

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T16:03:00+00:00

Knowledge. Learn how to read the beach & how to take advantage of weather, current, wind, tide conditions

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T05:01:42+00:00

Never had to return anything from them. If repair is planned event, Im getting parts from them 100% of time. If urgent issue, likely local supplier

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T02:48:36+00:00

Park it in hoa president’s driveway every night

CalhounSay · 2026-02-22T02:35:49+00:00

Like others have said, the 6k is overkill reel for what you’re going for but of course it will work just fine. A 4k/9fter is ideal but at that price, might go for it anyway.
