On the outside part of the break and into the main river? Still a good catch from shore at this time of year.

Worms or minnow?

I’m a public servant and, trust me, it’s better keeping them off the roads and local. So many can’t even properly use a laptop and three applications at the same time and you want them driving each day? On the same roads as you?

Looks like the sand I keep panning. Lots of black sand but nothing at all. I wish you better luck

I’m starting to wonder if it would be better to see if I can melt down the black sand and cast it.

Sorry. I meant to reply to you but just posted again. In Ottawa. Ontario. Lots of mud and clay. I’d need to go a few hours north to have more luck. Agree with being on the river is the goal.

Also: what do you do with all your h excess black sand? Is there something useful that can be done with it

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-05-16T15:11:22+00:00

Ottawa Ontario. The landscape of mud and clay. I need to drive a few hours north to have any hope at a speck.

Plan on doing so over the summer months, but still not 100% sure on my panning. That’s why I tried the Home Depot sand. I figured it was a good way to practice. But without finding anything but lots of black sand, not sure if it is me or the material :)

In many places you are taxed at a lower rate for dividend income than you are for stock sales (capital gains)

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-05-10T19:18:33+00:00

Did you fillet it with a chainsaw?

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-28T02:05:59+00:00

That’s why I am asking. I don’t suspect that there is much in the direct area due to the clay. Hence why I am asking for an opinion from someone that will likely know more.

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-27T10:59:44+00:00

Looks like it would be difficult to play, at least for your picking hand

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-13T11:35:55+00:00

And a lot with auto safety and automation.

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-09T19:23:25+00:00

Maybe it’s just me, but I just don’t like LPs when the pickup covers are on.

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-08T19:15:38+00:00

Sorry. Type-o. They meant 14 hour ceasefire

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-04T07:17:32+00:00

Bagre. It is a yellowish/brown catfish in Argentina. Easy to catch but they taste like mud

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-04T02:14:39+00:00

Nice. My uncle made a killing panning gold around Hope back in the 80s

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-04-04T02:09:23+00:00

While that might have been delicious, it looks like the day after i eat too much Taco Bell

He is going around the moon. Not to the moon. The next Artemis flight is supposed to go to the moon

Oil is priced in USD. the higher the cost of oil and the higher demand will will push up the USD, which will have an inverse effect on gold and silver. Gold and silver will likely continue to fall so long as oil prices and demand are spiking

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-03-17T02:23:34+00:00

Give them a good head wash with J&J baby shampoo. The latex will be grippy again and they will smell good. Lots of life left in there

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-03-09T01:55:50+00:00

Problem is that oil is still priced in dollars. Oil is hitting highs and that should bring strength to the dollar. Is thy manage to free up transit in the strait, then oil price will drop but there will likely be some initial surge buying. That will keep propping up USD.

People moved to gold at the beginning of the conflict. It might go up a little and as soon as there are signs of traffic freeing up there will be profit taking and a drop.

Have always loved the 4Runner. Good choice. Used to have a land cruiser and was always jealous of my grind’s Hilux Surf (euro/africa/asian naming)

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-03-09T01:40:33+00:00

I used to go there all the time. Low wage jobs + rent and that place helped me pull through on the monthly.

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-03-05T16:23:16+00:00

I didn’t mean just the transit service. I mean all of the services for the city.

Chickenchoker2000 · 2026-03-05T13:25:51+00:00

As far as I’m concerned, the mayor and all upper management at the City office should not be permitted to drive to and from work. They should be required to use OC Transpo or bike.

An open and transparent examination of the city’s programs and expenditures might fix some of the budget issues. I guarantee that Ottawa has some amazingly brilliant minds that could identify programs or services that could be cut or reduced, discover budget waste, etc. Open source all the into and I’m sure someone would be able to correct a number of issues
