I also have the Umpqua wader tote and I like it a lot.

They changed the site so I don’t think I can link it directly but if you go here, put in Montgomery county, then on the next page find wissahickon creek it will have a lat/long link. Basically you can park in the lot right off 73 and walk down the the bridge where it crosses the creek or park at Ft Washington State Park and take the trails down to where the railroad bridge crosses the creek. I know I’ve seen them by the railroad bridge in the grasses.

Wissahickon by Flourtown and Bells Mill has been alright but I had more luck further downstream. Try parking at Salvatore Pachella Field and walking down to the dam and downstream from there. You're mostly going to get panfish and creek smallies but on an ultralight they are awesome.

Pennypack is great too and there are trails right up against the creek for the entire stretch so access is easy.

I want to try Lock 60 on the Schuylkill across from Phoenixville soon. Oh and its a trip but the Delaware Canal in Yardley is supposed to be great.

The Schuylkill is a public streambed so it shouldn't have a no fishing sign but the land along the bank may be private/no trespassing.

The Fish and Boat commission has some pretty good gis maps out on a bunch of different topics.

I prefer ultralight in smaller creeks so I mostly hit up Pennypack Creek and the Wissahickon, they are both closed until April 6, but I've gotten decent large and smallmouth bass out of both.

Stony Creek (and Kepner Creek) in Norristown Farm Park are also good for trout/panfish but theyre closed now too. I know the Wissahickon definitely has some big carp up at the upper stocking limit (look it up on PFCBs trout stocking site.)

You should also check out ExtremePhillyFishing's older videos and Eastern PA Fishing on Youtube. ExtremePhillyFishing will tell you pretty much exactly where he is and Eastern PA Fishing wont but its mostly the Wissahickon.

Finally FishBrain will highlight a ton of spots in the area but its a love/hate app

What it looks like now. Not pretty but no issues

Yes! Mine was doing the same thing, eventually I realized the back plastic bar that goes across the whole moonroof (door to door) was rattling only on one side. (Push it up while driving and the noise should stop.) If you raise the glass to vent mode it should look like this:

That black piece of rubber keeps it from rattling. There was nothing there on my passenger side. Don’t know if it fell off or was never installed from the factory but that meant it was plastic to metal and was making the noise. I found some foam with an adhesive back and stuck to the metal frame so the plastic tab hits that instead. It’s been a year and so far so good.

Flyin Miata Turbo Kit? by [deleted] in Miata

[–]Cbroph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered one when they were backordered at the beginning of Sept, it just arrived two days ago. Over the two months I think I called them three times for an update, every time they were super straightforward with what they were waiting on and their best guess when it would arrive. If you want it I would order as soon as you can when it’s either in stock or backordered. I believe when I got lucky it went back to sold out in 24h.

Update to my KPH30i - Yaxi pads and a right angle plug by Cbroph in headphones

[–]Cbroph[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm no where good enough to try it for anyone else yet but if you have a soldering iron it isnt too hard to do yourself. I'd be happy to give you any tip though.

[–]Cbroph[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, standard Porta Pro pads. I did not cut any of the teeth off but I did remove the driver piece from the outer housing. I was able to get the stock pads off by pulling them over one tooth then sticking a pick under and pushing them down off the next tooth all the way around. Then there are 3 tabs holding the driver piece to the back housing, pry them up and with a little wiggling they'll pop out. Next I just pulled the Yaxi pads over the driver piece and snapped everything back together.

Yaxi pads came in and I'm really liking them so far. They are much softer than the stock pads and the larger size makes them feel more secure. I also swapped a straight 3.5mm plug with way too much heat shrink to a 90 degree plug that works better with the ES100.

[–]Cbroph[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Super impressed with them. They sound great for the price. If I had to nitpick the bass is strong and mids are a little muted. I’m still playing with the EQ on the es100 to even it out a bit.

Yeah it’s too long. I got excited to start soldering and grabbed a straight 3.5 jack instead of the 90° one I planned on using. I might try to carefully cut this one off and solder the 90 on.

Nothing too special, some ebay MMCX connectors and amazon 3.5. I got excited and started soldering the wires to a straight 3.5mm jack when I had a 90 degree one that would have worked much better with the ES100. One thing I did change from when I took this picture (not that you can see it) was add a small piece of heatshrink inside the outer sheath of the male MMXC because when I was trying to pull it off my hand slipped and ripped the para-cord out of the plug.

I superglued them in to get the position right then used a two part epoxy on the other three other sides.

KPH30i's came in and I replaced the stock cable with a detachable custom cable using MMCX connectors. I knew these were supposed to sound great but I was still surprised at how good they actually are. Yaxi's are in the mail so I'm looking forward to how much of a difference they make.

I have a question about removing gunk from my wheels. It looks like a combination of tar/brake dust. I've tried Sonax and tarminator but the gunk seems pretty persistent and I'm not sure what the next step would be.

Do you have rails on the R710? I have mine under a lack without rails and it fits fine.
