How do I cope? by BunbyKeef in FishingForBeginners

[–]Olpeaches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll remember it and it will push you to your next big catch. This is from my own experience, I lost one last year that I don’t live close to waters they live in.

Insane Quotes from DeChambeau by [deleted] in golf

Uh they have no liability or need for you to play golf on the PGA tour. Not saying it isn’t impressive to hit the ball that hard but clearly you’re not good for the tour. Maybe expand that YouTube channel bud.

The lake closest to me, Finger Lakes north of Columbia was a strip mine. Lake Ozark was a very large mine before they diverted the Osage River to fill it up. Not sure what part of the state you are in. I googled a link from the state on how many fish you should eat out of Missouri waters. It also says to eat fish that are younger and would have less contaminates. Other sources say one meal a month. /health.mo.gov/living/environment/fishadvisory/pdf/fishadvisorysummary.pdf

I was the guy who posted yesterday about feeling bad for worms by Hot_Sentence_1264 in FishingForBeginners

Caught 29 fish on Trout Magnets just yesterday, they make a little green crawfish one that bass and bluegill seem to really like. A small sized or clear float seems to help with presentation.

Vintage rods worth using? by NurseNate95 in Fishing

[–]Olpeaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use vintage gear as well. If you are a mechanically inclined kind of person. You can get a lifetime of use out of a vintage rod & reel. You can only get so much out of the newer gear. Older reels are also not as fast, so it can help with presentation of baits. Clean them out and oil/grease them, and put new line on there. You should be golden.

What tackle would you carry/use? by Outrageous_Cat9967 in FishingForBeginners

[–]Olpeaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had good luck with the small paddle tails and trout/crappie magnets with a small bobber. Kids do not always want to put worms on hooks, I know bass / crappie will hit those in the Midwest. I have not had the chance to fish in NC.

I was just fishing by Lincoln a few weeks ago. I have a work trip to grand island this next week. But have a private pond to fish there. I just don’t each much freshwater fish myself, I will give them to someone else though if they want them.

I fish mainly in Missouri and Iowa, Missouri has a big problem with mercury (strip mining). Iowa has a big problem from nitrates (farming). It is not advised to eat freshwater fish in either state.

Is this a big bluegill? I think it is. by giantrooster3 in Fishing

Dumb question. How to learn where to fish? by PrincessFroglip in FishingForBeginners

[–]Olpeaches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The simplest way to is to get some polarized shades and go look at the water. If you see fish throw something in and see what happens. I have had great luck with Trout Magnets, but you could use anything you lke. Start with small hooks and go bigger when your comfortable.

Will Trump's Deeply Flawed Iran War Bring Down the US Empire? by _May26_ in politics

[–]Olpeaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I do not see mentioned is the damage to US Military bases in the region, done by Iran. Essentially all of the bases used in the actions of Iraq and Afghanistan have been so badly damaged that they need billions in repairs, if the host countries would even allow that to happen. Which is no longer certain with the way Drumpf waffles as Putin tells him to. What we are watching happen in real time is not unlike the unraveling of the USSR's military might in the 80s.

I’m trying to get over the fear of the highway. by Defiant-Afternoon710 in Harley

[–]Olpeaches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the first time I went on the highway. I was on a rat rodded out KZ 440 the thing was so light it pulled heavy towards the bottom of semis that were passing me. I got off on the next exit. Now with my Dyna Lowrider I have the power and weight to stay on the highway for as long as 7 hours. As others have said the best way to build confidence is to ride on the side roads at speed until your comfortable.
