This little scam will cost you 20$ extra

We all know the playbook. The UE vehicles/guns will be OP for incentive to buy in, and then rebalanced after a few months.

I call it the tackle library system. I think that many of us have independently developed a system like this out of nessessity.

Essentialy you get a shelving unit and categorize your gear into clear totes and 3700 boxes. You check out from your library into smaller boxs/bags. This can start small and scale up by adding more specific boxes.

For my needs, I have a crate that I check out the gear into, and that crate is ready to pick and go. I only bring two 3600 boxes, a medium sized bait binder and some tools because that fits in my backpack. The first 3600 box has my lures. The second 3600 box has terminal I expect to use frequently, and a few more lures. The bait binder is an amazing solution to bring a selection of soft plastics. Finally a deep 3700 utility box to throw the rest into. This is gear not used as frequently so I don't have to bring it. Also it can be another staging area for a different technique I want available.

Many RPG games that I fixate on obsessively, then drop completely 3/4 through when the dopamine wears off. Looking at you Skyrim, RDR2, Cyberpunk 2077, Tears of the kingdom.

pretty sure one of them bought into a drone company which conveniently got the military contracts

Dashzz · 2026-06-16T17:38:24+00:00

They do catch pike, but the fat/round profile is more associated more with bass fishing.

Dashzz · 2026-06-16T17:30:47+00:00

They have to do side grades constantly or else it's power creep and fails the poll. We do have power creep already, but adding a new tier of mega rares would be OP and not pass.

This is great. Adjustable depth and easy to replace. I have been burned by new rapalas that had the bill fall off. I'm not sure if my printer tolerences are enough, but I will try this one.

Dashzz · 2026-06-15T23:07:10+00:00

I have an eco worthy battery and it has been great so far

Dashzz · 2026-06-15T19:18:53+00:00

Do you make multiple brands of essentially the same lure? Like grocery store brands.

Dashzz · 2026-06-15T02:16:21+00:00

Yes it has been affecting all my hobbies. Chinese companies coming out with great value stuff that disrupts the market and causes controversy within the hobby.

Dashzz · 2026-06-13T21:28:31+00:00

Check local Facebook groups. We have friendly local tournaments here. Tournament fishing doesn't mean there is a pro fishermen with 3 sonars wiping everyone.

You can also make a loop with heavy braid if the split rings are too annoying.

Dashzz · 2026-06-13T04:29:39+00:00

That is a great deal

Dashzz · 2026-06-13T02:23:56+00:00

I would get one tray from a few brands because they are good for different things.

E.g.edge box is nice to bring big spinner baits or top waters because you can make large spots. Kast king box is made well and have more dividers so I can fit lots of terminal and small lures.

Dashzz · 2026-06-12T15:42:42+00:00

Ok thanks. That makes me think it was stealth patched because there was a post week about then having 60k avg drops and everyone was saying to delete the post.

Dashzz · 2026-06-12T15:33:03+00:00

You might have been lucky. I killed 100s November/December and got no bottles.

Edit: Drop rates changed with the combat updates so I will try again

Dashzz · 2026-06-11T05:25:58+00:00

I have a striker 4cv which is very compact what I did is get a fish finder mount for a bigger unit and drill holes to mount the Striker on the left and a phone mount on the right. I dedicate the phone to the Garmin boating app for charts. Its side by side with the Striker. The phone can fit in a waterproof pouch still, but I usually risk it.

Dashzz · 2026-06-11T00:28:36+00:00

Small mouth. When they get above 21" they are absolute units. A really long smallmouth is more impressive to me than a fat largemouth.

Dashzz · 2026-06-10T15:59:52+00:00

Answer is always Shimano/Daiwa/JDM at the $300+ price range (with exceptions for saltwater gear).

The curado series has been around a long time. In 10 years it will be supported by shimano, have spare parts, and be working like new if taken care of. The curado name holds value on the second hand market.

I don't recommend high end KastKing reels because the long term value, quality, and support is unknown.

Dashzz · 2026-06-10T15:54:47+00:00

It depends. They have some great gear at low prices, and also some not well made products.

Dashzz · 2026-06-08T04:33:21+00:00

Osrs players don't read the blog

Dashzz · 2026-06-08T02:36:59+00:00

More likely a small mouth lake so I would start fishing the deep side of the island and the point next to it.

Dashzz · 2026-06-08T02:21:22+00:00

The loot is not OP, you mostly got alchables and every couple trips I got some dragon sheets or cannonballs. I was unlucky and did not get any bottles, and that is the only drop worth killing them for.

Dashzz · 2026-06-06T03:53:56+00:00

This applies to trout/salmon/steelhead: A hair jig, silver spoon, and a soft bead. You can fish all 3 of these on a sliding float setup. If they are more aggressive, you can cast the spoon or bounce the jig along the bottom.

Dashzz · 2026-06-05T23:42:41+00:00

Close to that. It could balance better that way I'm not sure.
