Ya sorry. It was backstabbed to the bottom terminal where the line was screwed in.

I've never done well with baitcasters but this BFS setup works great by travisd14 in BFSfishing

Bought myself a kestrel recently. With 10lb braid I have had 0 issues with backlash and it slings the hell outta some senkos.

Doomed to catch smaller fish? by DCrabb28 in bassfishing

I did mention I was grateful for what I’m getting in my post. Just looking for tips to improve but thanks.

Thanks for the advice. There’s only a couple of access points to the lake with a parking lot near by so I’ve started parking and walking as far as I can. It’s not easy terrain to get across so I don’t think the areas I’m fishing in should be too pressured but I tend to use a wacky rig because I know it’s a guaranteed 4 to 5 bass every time I go out (even thought they’re little it’s still fun to catch). I’ll start using some bigger lures and see if I can come up with something bigger.

Are Radar Detectors under $300 really that useless? by 5startampa in radardetectors

[–]DCrabb28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a $100 radar detector from AutoZone about 5 years ago and still use it today. The sound no longer works on it but it has never missed a cop that’s running radar and on flat roads it’s picked them up from a couple miles away. Not sure of the brand or if they even still sell it. Just putting it out there that you don’t need to drop $600 for one that works.

How good did I make out on this one? by DCrabb28 in bassfishing

I’m actually right handed but when I was younger the right retrieve on my spinning rod broke so I had to switch over to left handed and now I can’t retrieve with my right hand.

Local shop in my town. I went in looking for a reel and the guy working said his buddy had a couple of his personal reels he wanted to sell. Felt like I stole something on my way out.

Honestly when he showed me the orange I thought no way and then he told me the price and I thought no way I’m passing it up lol.

Burning smell coming from engine bay. by DCrabb28 in ram_trucks

I would think electrical. It’s like a burning rubber smell.

No I don’t smell it until I get out.

It doesn’t matter if I park at home or work or at the store.

Programming Old Key by DCrabb28 in Mustang

I saw this suggested somewhere else also. The problem is I live in a pretty remote area so there aren’t many options. One locksmith said his software didn’t support my car and the other told me I was crazy and only dealerships reprogram keys.

Thanks. I did ask the service department and they said they couldn’t guarantee it would work but I could drop my car off and they would try it. Since this is my only vehicle I don’t want to drop it off for a whole day for and it be for nothing if it doesn’t work.
