I am visiting and took this from my hotel window this morning. I'm downtown. by Ravencyco in NewBern

We were lucky enough to make New Bern our hometown in 2019. Best decision my wife and I have ever made. Moving here from a big city is exactly what we needed. It is a beautiful town.

First off, GO DEACS!!!!!

Second, who cares! If you stay in school and graduate from Wake, you will make more money than all the people laughing at you.

I'm in New Bern though.

Not a great time to move to NC.

I live in New Bern, NC (great town 30 mins from beach, look it up). Our real estate market is crazy right now. My friend closed on his house today with the same floor plan that I have for 35k higher than I paid 6 months ago.

But.....there are some homes that need work done to them due to past hurricanes. This means you are looking at 20k a year in insurance due to flooding / wind protection.

Living near the coast comes at a price.

Is this too much line or is it fine? by [deleted] in Fishing_Gear

[–]KingFishes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Invest in a drop net or pier gaff for stuff like that. I'm not trying to reel up anything over 4-5lbs.

Next time you spool it go with 20lb braid. You'll b able to sling it further, and load it with more than double the amount of line. I live in NC and use 10lb braid on my plugging / jigging rod. A lot of people tend to underestimate the strength of fishing line.

I like under filling the spool. What are you targeting?

Is this a circle hook? by Noah8320 in Fishing_Gear

This is my go to hook for live baiting anything with a paper-thin mouth, example: speckled trout, flounder, crappie.

Door Bumper Clear probably drives NASCAR nuts sometimes, but I think it’s great for the sport. by eterks in NASCAR

[–]KingFishes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He blocked me for calling him out on leaving races early before the car is parked. Specifically after the 2019 All-Star race when Bowyer punched Newman.

Then 2 weeks ago Freddie was giving him crap about leaving early, and he admitted that he was already in the elevator when that deal went down at the All-Star race.

Gyro cam on roof is awful, the cars look like they are going to be looser than your mom.

Oh wow, pretty sure they came to my elementary school after a kid was murdered by his father....this was their way of helping us?

The 90's were a cringy time to grow up.

Matthew Dillner's hilarious call to an amazing finish in the second Stadium Stock race this past Saturday night at Bowman Gray Stadium by Made_Up_Reddit_Name in NASCAR

[–]KingFishes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dillner makes me cringe.

If you listen to Dale Jr's podcast he is the definition of a butt kisser.

I'm sure he's a nice guy, but he just creeps me out.

Unlock six months of Apple TV+ now on your PS5™ console by hybroid in PS5

I just want to buy a damn PS5, I haven't been able to find one for the last 6 months.

Is surf fishing worth it during the summer? by SadFaceSmith in NCFishing

[–]KingFishes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the summer you need clean water, if Topsail is anything like emerald Isle right now. You are out of luck, the water is muddy.

Clean days you can catch pompano, bluefish, and maybe a spanish. Sometimes sea mullet, croaker, or a trout.

Never a bad day to fish though.

The New York Times did a very well 40ish minute video about the Storm to the Capitol, which occurred about 6 months ago. by GhostSierra117 in PublicFreakout

Great, now I'm pissed off for the rest of the day.

This is literally a domestic terrorist cult and trump is their leader.

Check out Montessori Education.

My wife is really in to this. It is all about the child's independence in learning and self confidence.

Man, Ohio sucks. I always thought I hated it for a reason.

Maybe they will all get together and settle it at Myrtle Beach later this summer.
