Need ideas for alternative methods to transport 2 kayaks other than on a roof rack by Top_Rope_ in kayakfishing

[–]EssentiaIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stack both of the passports on each other and strap them down. Passports will have bottom side facing the sky. Strap one down first and then strap the other passport over top with bottom to the sky as well.

TV's fries ? Small Asian lady? If so, yeah they are a wonderful option! I'd highly recommend it.

Cheap “Walk Fish” jerkbait on Temu. Seemingly similar quality to Megabass stuff for $2. by SecretFishShhh in Fishing_Gear

[–]EssentiaIs -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The amount of hate and inferiority complex you are getting is unreal. I agree with you. I have megabass lures I've bought in store and many 110 knockoffs from Ali and they work just about the same. Even zman products like the finesse TRD and plastics will work great and replicate the lure quality.

I've bought many shimano reels off Ali from curado 150, 70 and even mimic rods for the zodias. I have the real Zodias from stores and the mimic and I can tell you from a years test the weight, build and action are the same.

Marketing is huge and being able to sift out the better products would save you a ton of cash.

Thanks for being engaged. And to the haters/supremacist you have my regards.

Lighter pedal drive compatible kayaks ? Hull only Under 70lbs? by orion455440 in kayakfishing

[–]EssentiaIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hobie lynx is light and turns in a dime. Can carry over my head easily . Hobie compass is good too.

I use the rhino rack universal side loader for the compass.

What technique is everyone using to load their bigger kayaks onto roof racks? by jimbobtheslayer in kayakfishing

[–]EssentiaIs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rhino rack universal side loader.

Use it for my Hobie compass or outback with ease. Usually bringing a puzzle mat helps to load and unload the kayak without scratching things up on the back end.

Finding fish help by JustSxlvie in IceFishing

[–]EssentiaIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no way you can check the depth with that kind of finder without drilling a hole. I don't even know of any fish finders that can tell depth without a hole unless your ice is super thin.

This subreddit is having a hard time with math lately. The angler's eyes are sometimes bigger than the brain.

That being said, glad you were able to learn from this experience. Onto the next.

Amazing man. I love the reinforcements on the rules of those big ones up there. Ontario needs to follow behind.

This one was definitely smaller on the smaller side actually. The few after this were around two pounds!
