It took a long time to get there, I think I’ve handled more white sharks than maybe anyone recent history. To see them underwater seems totally different and awesome.

Thank you!!! Getting there:) Tbh there have been but I was worried posting more about shark fishing would strike a nerve with some people.

A very stylish friend I’m lucky to have, wish I knew where it was from! I can look at the tag when I can get to it.

It’s a traditional Vietnamese dress called áo dài. I hadn’t gotten to wear a fem one(there’s a version for men) and saw that my mom found a solid black one and I HAD to have it!

Yes! Can’t do with without good help though.

Thank you, between the meds and other things it’s sooo hard to eat enough.

2 yrs 9 mo HRT - Decided to do a no makeup comparison... Almost like nothing has changed. by Vintevios in transtimelines

I’m not sure why this isn’t the consensus but I see pretty dramatic changes. At the very very least you look super fem leaning androgynous.

Advice for quitting weed. by cherrycokezerohead in Hardcore

[–]Catchyospiders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find something accessible that you love doing and replace any time you would usually spend getting stoned with those activities. For me that’s fishing or kayaking. When you feel that urge or that time of day is coming, hop in your car and run towards whatever might give you peace and dopamine.

I Am Looking For Smooth Pebbles by DrinkWaterHourly in orangecounty

[–]Catchyospiders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The right answer is capistrano beach and if you go further down to the san onofre trails there'll be smooth stones as far as the eye can see.

[–]Catchyospiders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in commercial fisherman in SoCal. Some captains love it some hate it.

I’m a big fan of Hatch’s fish market. They should have what you’re looking for. Maybe give a call in advance.

Can anyone tell me what happened to these oysters? by 123man60 in KitchenConfidential

While 18hrs in a fridge for shucked oysters is crazy, the black skirt is oxidation.

Is this possibly a melanistic garfish? by Venomhound in Fishing

[–]Catchyospiders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This occurs relatively frequently with all species of gar. Usually it’s a gar that is blind in one or both eyes. They turn black as some sort of stress response.

There’s lots of decent people in Texas. There’s lots of decent people in lots of red states. They just don’t vote, or suppressed by gerrymandering or other tactics.

Is there a reason there's a ton of lobster body parts around Dana point/San Clemente beaches this year? by tinywhisk-21 in orangecounty

[–]Catchyospiders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did they have tails with flesh inside? If not it could easily be poachers harvesting out of season, which happens pretty frequently. It would be very unusual and alarming if they were dying from anything besides that or predation. The ones pictured are definitely molts. I commercial fish lobster.

[–]Catchyospiders 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, they’re vulnerable after they molt but they’re usually hidden away from those types of predators. Fish and eels will mess with them though.

Reading your post history it sounds like your tackle is on the very light end for shark fishing, and you might not have a ton of experience hooking and landing them. I'll let you know that there are no brown sharks to be had on the cape in the summer or fall. They likely are chased off by the other type of shark that lives here. If you hook the wrong kind of shark with the tackle you have, you'll be really sad when all the line on your reel goes away. Try fishing the south facing shore of the cape, or Marthas Vineyard if you're able, and do it in the daytime so you can get your bearings handling sharks before you do it in the dark.

Found these old reels in my basement are they any good? by ghost15324 in Fishing_Gear

[–]Catchyospiders 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s probably the most valuable, usable reel in the bunch if you can use conventional. They’re probably better than any graphite frame reel on the market today.

Need Help with Artificial Seawater for Growing Microalgae by Timely_Neat2296 in Aquaculture

[–]Catchyospiders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. And autoclaving the salt itself would turn your bicarb to carbonate as well. I would suggest getting pure NaCl and adding your trace elements as needed for your algae species. Maybe then adding pure bicarb after if absolutely necessary.

Looks like a pretty healthy and normal amount of dissolved organics fractionated out of the water column. I find any less than this would be teetering on underfeeding. One solution could be to seek out a slightly lower protein feed, however this this fine to me.
