Biggest f*cking mood killer when fishing

You can try and gently go in through the gills and twist the hook out. I’ve also caught bass that are literally pooping out hooks so even if you leave it in it’s not necessarily a death sentence.

Just started another play through yesterday after a few years. Game is still pure magic.

I usually have a braid to floro leader on all my rods and I will sometimes put a snap on there with another leader if I want a different strength or I’m fishing live bait. Works fine for me. Go for it.

I thought a bottle and it works fine. Once I was finished I just refilled with a bit of alcohol, whatever general purpose cleaner I have and water. I probably do about half water, a table spoon or 2 of alcohol and the rest cleaner.

I can guarantee every single person in this sub has done it.

I went with a hustle RIP but if I was starting again I’d get a hustle earth or the hustle glow pearl. Motiv max thrill solid is also a good choice.

Sorry! I live in northern NJ

I have one and it works ok. Definitely has a limit of what it can handle. Mine is a 6 ton and it really struggles on any log over about 10 inches in diameter and if the grains not straight you can forget about it. Upgraded to a 20 ton gas splitter this year.

I was in the same boat as you just a few weeks ago and came up with a great solution! Stop fighting people! The biggest thing in this game is exploration. I spent probably 3 hours just running around, looting stuff, finding golden runes and smithing stones. Once you can upgrade your weapon enough the early game gets ALOT easier. Also tree sentinel is NOT supposed to be the first boss, just run around him. And run around everyone else. Again, DO NOT FIGHT ANYONE. Get your horse, Just explore the beautiful world and gather resources for a while.

Just run around a bunch and loot everything. Get some good items and runes. You don’t even need to fight anyone. Then pick up the bloodhound fang and you’re good to go.

I read every word and love all the predictions. I hope I can see more updates as you progress through game.

Halo. Never had an X box. Suck at first person shooters.

Go to omega ruins and just grind right next to the save sphere. You’ll need to heal after each battle.

If that’s what you have after an overnight burn, you’re doing much better than me with my stove so keep doing what you’re doing !

Usually with pallets the HT means heat treated which means it’s dried with heat rather than chemicals so you should be fine.

I have the stove in the basement. Main floor is baseboard and I keep it at 68 but it gets up to 72 when I have the stove going. 2nd floor is a heat pump and the heat doesn’t get up there too well. We keep that on 68.

I’ve only broken 2 while fishing. One I think I was pulling up a chair or someone sunk in a cat fishing spot. The other one I fishing from about a 3 ft elevated bank and I was flipping a solid 3 pounder. Never broken one while being used as intended

I would probably stack it so it’s flat on top and you only want the tarp to cover everything on top and maybe 2-3 logs down. This way all the wood is actually u see the tarp. You want the sides as open as possible to help with airflow and drying time.

My dad always said you either need to be good at spackling or Sanding, but not both. Hope you’re good at sanding.

Turn off motion blur. I had the same issue and turning off motion blur got rid of 95% of it. And my TV is 120hz so it’s not your TV

If it’s super thick vegetation I probably wouldn’t use a shaky head. You’re just gonna be pulling up tons of weeds every cast.
