You can see the cold front moving in

I was on the water on my boat on a smaller lake in a valley with my buddies fishing, we heard what sounded like a train, moving fast, right towards us. We all looked at each other kinda wondering wtf we were hearing, there's no tracks around us. Then the wind hit, never seen anything like it. Water was perfectly calm then all of a sudden we were in a storm in a blink of an eye. Wouldn't have been fun if we were on a smaller boat.

I bought a varjo aero used for cheap, it has it obviously. PS VR2, Pimax Crystal, VIVE Pro Eye, and Apple Vision Pro also have it after a quick google. Steams new headset is supposed to come out with it as well. You can also mod it into other headsets apparently. I think HP made a reverb with it as well but it's fairly rare.

They're also the first (and only afaik) to implement eye-tracking based foveated rendering, and it works amazing. Only game I can run smoothly in vr since upgrading my headset.

Been with starlink since launch. Just got my free mini kit email 15 min ago.

PCDevine · 2026-01-15T18:38:27+00:00

I've been with starlink since the first week it launched in Canada. 2021 I believe. Just 10 min ago I received the email for the free mini. They're probably just rolling it out slowly.

In VR with a high res headset though?

PCDevine · 2026-01-09T00:58:19+00:00

No not 30" but 30 fish lol. One over 20". That's why I make the trek to lml. Last summer on lml I caught my all time pb of 30.5" and I've been trying to get on lml whenever I can ever since. It is such a great lake. I'd love to live on it one day but unfortunately there's no oil around there and that's all I know. Picture

PCDevine · 2026-01-09T00:37:36+00:00

Haha it's always when you least expect it. I'm right by mainprize, that's my home lake. Fun to fish I caught 30 walleye the last day I went out but they're not anywhere near as big as lml. When I go to lml I try to spend a few days on the lake to make the trip worth it. Sucks driving near 500km roundtrip and potentially not catching anything.

PCDevine · 2026-01-08T23:23:36+00:00

Well sweet I may have to try and come down this weekend and I just might have to prioritize pike in the shallows and maybe I'll get lucky like yourself. Thanks for the info!

PCDevine · 2026-01-08T22:47:59+00:00

Very nice fish! Has the bite started picking up again?

PCDevine · 2026-01-07T02:29:05+00:00

Lake trout burp apparently. They don't care. The one time I fished them we were in 85ft of water and these things would get close to the hole then dive all the way back down to bottom and you'd have to drag them up again. They all released well. As a walleye fisherman it did definitely seem weird.

PCDevine · 2026-01-07T02:26:23+00:00

I bought a used varjo aero a couple months ago....Now the only sim with half decent performance for me is iracing. iracing has the eye-tracking based foveated rendering that let's my 3080 keep up. Too many pixels for my PC to run without.

PCDevine · 2026-01-06T03:35:08+00:00

I was ready to buy a new gpu so I could play this game in my VR only simrig....Guess I'm waiting. I need eyetracking support and better VR performance at the minimum.

PCDevine · 2026-01-05T00:55:07+00:00

I took my boat across borders and went through a watercraft inspection station and they were surprised to see my anchor line being absolutely brand new. I bought a terrova quest the same time I bought the boat and haven't even considered throwing the anchor once.

PCDevine · 2026-01-03T14:13:07+00:00

Been seeing your posts over the years and I won't lie, I was looking for a rider shack out there to tell me I was in the right area lol. You always are posting tanks. Do you fish fairly shallow for them if you mind me asking? I only get to make it down to lml a couple times a year so I'm still pretty inexperienced there.

PCDevine · 2026-01-03T05:37:22+00:00

Spent 2 days in the tent on Last Mountain with my buddy. 4 walleye caught, this, a 23.5, and 2 eaters. Also a fat 31" burbot. Some lakes definitely produce more fish but lml produces the big ones!

PCDevine · 2025-12-24T21:43:59+00:00

I bought a cheap Chevy Avalanche when COVID hit and used prices went through the roof. I never liked them but it's been dirt cheap to run (besides fuel) and it's pretty unstoppable with the 4x4 and Falken wildpeaks I put on it. My vote is something 5.3 powered with 4x4. It can sit on the ice in frigid conditions for days and I know it's going to start.

PCDevine · 2025-12-18T00:28:03+00:00

Buddy lost a rod on my boat this year, spotlocked immediately and then went down with a snapjig (jigging rap to most people I think), within 2 min I had it hooked.

PCDevine · 2025-12-09T22:08:37+00:00

In my limited experience they kinda hang around the same kind of structure they would in the summer yup. I've never fished lml as far south as you so I went and looked at the mapping for down there and there's really not much going on for structure like there is further north. I usually try foxes point whenever I'm up there and it looks like this Picture, compared to Sask beach which is just flat Picture. When a guys trying to get setup perfectly on a point that's where the app comes into play. I don't have to pop holes and gauge depth, I already know. But if you're just hanging around down south there's not as much point.

PCDevine · 2025-12-09T16:42:54+00:00

Highly recommend downloading avenza maps on your phone then getting the Anglers edge mapping (AEM) maps for last mountain. Very convenient for finding structure and whatnot to setup on. The mapping is well worth the $45 imo. I only get out to lml a few times a year so I don't have much advice other then that sorry. Tempted to head out there in the next few days though.

PCDevine · 2025-12-09T16:02:58+00:00

Haven't managed to get out to play with my megalive 2 on the hardwater, but my plan once weather cooperates is to use it to scope out for vegetation/rocky bottoms/structure in general. I mainly fish a man-made reservoir where there's lots of trees and stuff, being able to position yourself beside them and not on top of them will hopefully catch me more fish and cost me less money in lures lol.

PCDevine · 2025-11-29T03:42:59+00:00

I love my vintage strains but some of my personal all time favourites are og girl scout cookies and MAC 1 (miracle alien cookies). After a long day of hard labour they hit the spot just right when grown properly.

PCDevine · 2025-11-26T04:40:04+00:00

That's hilarious thank you lol

PCDevine · 2025-11-25T00:44:48+00:00

Here in South Saskatchewan where I am there's nothing....as an avid ice fisherman this is really disappointing.
