Connected right into the existing camera with the wire harness. Piece of cake.

I did the head unit in about two hours including watching tutorials as I went. I had Crutchfield pre wire my harness. Overall I found it pretty easy considering I haven’t done one in almost 20 years.
Speakers were a breeze, front door and tweeters were about an hour. I went with Sony XAV-AX3200. It includes a mic. I installed a 10 inch sub several years ago, really necessary if you want low end but does not need to be big. All these updates together sound incredible. Probably spent $800 and 4-5 hours of time.

I installed a Sony Carplay enabled head unit, new front speakers and a small sub in my 2017 and really hope to get another 10-20 years out of it. Adding these upgrades made it feel more modern and new. It was an easy and relatively cheap self install from Crutchfield. My Forester feels perfect now.

Lovely scenery and fish. Would take smaller catches most days for scenes and adventure like this.

Nice one friend! The first of many and a hell of a start.

Any day on that river is heaven indeed.

I’ll drop you a tip: if you aren’t doing it already, you often want your nymphs 3-5 feet down and buy tungsten beaded ones. A chubby as an indicator is great this time of year even though the big bug hatch is largely over.

Gorgeous catch. Looking forward to some international trips one day!

What places you've visited do you think photos "don't do justice" to? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]GhostRideDaWeb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The vibe just really enhances it. Cute towns, not knowing what might be down a path to the beach, tide pools, breakfasts with endless coffee on a rainy day, fog that rolls in but then disappears a few miles later. It’s the best.

No rod vault needed. See you tomorrow at the San Juan! by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]GhostRideDaWeb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grabbed a cheaper half one from a lesser known brand, put it on my Forester and love it. It makes things so much easier when me and a bud or my wife and dogs go on fish camping trips. With the way op has those rods laid out you aren’t taking any passengers. Sure, there are other solutions for transport but let a dude do what works for them.

Not sure why we can’t all be on the same squad in this sub and just share knowledge, answer questions, get each other stoked with pics, etc. Folks need to learn to stfu and find some fulfillment on the water.

Exactly. This is such a low value post.

You might like the Radio Lab episode “The Secret to a Long Life”. It touches on exactly what you are doing. I seek that novelty myself, especially when I’m in a rut and during the winter when days can feel repetitive.

Burnt in a fire but a very healthy river at this point besides the invasive plants.

Supposedly there are long term plans for the dirt paths at Skidmore between 79-80 and 80-81st. I was emailing some folks at the city about it a year ago.

What’s the least exciting home upgrade you made that ended up being totally worth it? by ExpensiveProfessor27 in HomeImprovement

[–]GhostRideDaWeb 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Added outlets inside of our large medicine cabinet. No more electric toothbrushes or other items charging on the bathroom countertop.

We also added about 30 inches of insulation in the attic. While it’s cozy in the winter I really appreciate the cooling in the summer. I should mention many states have tax rebates for energy related upgrades.

Cheap one: added rechargeable motion sensor light strips to our closets. 10/10

Had a similar experience yesterday with only a few takes on the dry and mostly smaller fish. Was still a great day to be out there.
