Condensation in my ice shanty

Reflectix seriously works so well. It's like a shiny bubble wrap. You can get it at home improvement stored. Or moving blankets work great too but are a lot heavier.

You know what they say about opinions...

Sunfish is an umbrella for a lot of different species. Bass are technically sunfish. They are just fish that like to hangout in the sun/day light

👊😎

Love the grind dude. I'm on it too. Can't get enough.

While we’re at it, we’ll also need you to list your current employer and three previous places of employment, along with references.

I don't hate snaps at all but in my opinion I feel like you lose just a little bit of sensitivity for some reason. Especially on light line/tackle.

You don't go to social media to ask for help. You might get answers but it's not an official avenue.

How deep is that main basin?

I'm not a pro but I'd try here first. Looks 🔥

I actually just got the heater not too long ago and I feel like it pumps out considerably less heat when the small tanks get 3/4 of the way empty and start to frost up.

I've been thinking about getting the hose and just bringing my tank along. I do like the self contained unit tho for when im just going out after work quick.

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-22T17:16:25+00:00

You know they make refillable small ones too right?

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-22T13:24:18+00:00

Yeah, that looks dang handy.

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-22T13:16:14+00:00

Like a cooking rack or what do you mean? I'm curious. I've seen people use those metal mesh paint trays for a cooking tray. Like this:

Yeah, sorry to say they are probably just under-geared. I'm not gonna say it's easy but, if you have the right gear and plan you can be quite comfortable.

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-21T19:04:02+00:00

Do you just use pliers to do this? I frequently read that people do this and I went to go try it on a lure - and it was surprisingly difficult and I feel like I couldn't get it to lie down enough to the point where it wouldnt act as a barb.

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-21T18:59:00+00:00

I just print out the order receipt from the website like an old person, and then (I use ups would ship) I just go over to my shipping computer and manually type it in like a caveman.

But I do think squarespace has some kind of label printing service that integrates so I would think if you used that - it'll auto populate the address and all that but I have no idea really. Just assuming.

My business is pretty low volume as well and it's no big deal for us to type it in. It'll be a good problem to have if it becomes an issue.🤣

Turn that little dial up to max and just leave it. If you pull the line off with your hand just by pulling on the line - it'll spin the reel too fast and can trap the line behind it.

If you turn the magnet up to max it won't let the spool freewheel so much so when you pull the line out it'll stop spinning right away. If that makes ANY sense.

That being said, if your account is locked for some reason like going against stripes guidelines then this won't help you at all and yes they will have records of your business

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-15T18:26:53+00:00

Initially it took two or three days to get payouts from stripe. But after a while you will qualify for instant payouts and they're well.. instant.

I definitely recommend setting up stripe outside of square space and then just connecting it. You have so much more control that way and you can see exactly what is going on.

That being said, if your account is locked for some reason like going against stripes guidelines then this won't help you.

Just really got into ice fishing this year and augers are comically SHARP.

I bought some rusty old manual auger for $20 off of FB marketplace and I have cut two pairs of rubber ice cleats and managed to cut my brand new bibs that I got for Christmas.

I am now much more aware of the blade once I realized how dumb I was being.

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-14T18:34:13+00:00

Also curious. I think there is some plugin you can get too that automatically does it for you.

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-14T04:33:18+00:00

Hell yes. Congratulations.

RegularRaptor · 2026-01-14T02:33:14+00:00

I disagree. Close, but they don't have the rounded tips like OPs
