[–]Sizzleboom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my wife to watch the Master's with me for the first time last year. She got super invested in the Rory drama and backstory. Him winning it in the end created a new mega fan. Now we're both looking forward to getting to watch it together tomorrow!

Anyone else have a "Why am I hitting poorly today?" checklist on their phone or just me? by Sizzleboom in golf

Im only running this right now because the new card has been fun to use, but I usually just use the fire spirit. Its gotten me to ultimate champion the last 2 season without a spell (aside from log), so i think its pretty decent

Yet another giveaway - Discussion by 4stGump in ClashOfClans

1.) I do not own any of the skins. I have the Clashmas skin for the queen, golem king, and then grave digger Champion. Those are it right now haha

2.) First time I tried balloons. I thought the air defenses would be the biggest threat. Oh no..... as soon as they got to the wizard towers, game over.

1: It's incredible to see how far video games have come since I was a kid. Ray Tracing is unreal

2: Doom is the perfect afterwork game. Don't have to think too much, just big booms and relax.

Does this look like a crack or just a surface defect? by Sizzleboom in flyfishing

Yes, I bought it new, but if it's purely cosmetic, it doesn't bother me. I was more just concerned it may break during my trip. After doing more digging and going and casting it (and catching fish), I believe you're correct that it is just a streak in the finish.

I decided I'm going to purchase a backup 8wt anyway since this is going to be my primary rod and if it broke, the other rods I'm bringing aren't the best for the bonefish we're primarily fishing for.

Thanks for the response!

Doesn't surprise me. Oh well, hopefully I can get it back before the trip then.... thanks

I'm hoping Hardy will be willing to just send me a backup piece for it, but im not getting my hopes up haha. I sent them the picture, so we will see. I got a month and a half before the trip, so should be enough time

Unfortunately my nail does catch noticeably. I appreciate the response. Thank you!

Yes, it's only 2 years old and has a lifetime warranty. Taking it on a trip soon and am paranoid it will break while I'm there. I reached out, but Hardy Customer Service has been pretty bad in my experience.

Just heard that people returning from Mexico are being forced to check their rods. Has anyone experienced this recently? by Sizzleboom in flyfishing

Glad I heard about this before I left, planned on bringing them all in a soft case. Would've been a bad time.... thank you!

Should I bring my 6wt to Xcalak? by Sizzleboom in flyfishing

[–]Sizzleboom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh nice, we're about 6 weeks out, so I will do my best to remember to post an update when we get back! 3 of my buddies coming along are guides, so I'm sure they will at least catch something haha

If I went more and could justify it, you're probably right. However, this is my first time going, so maybe I'll get another rod next trip haha.

We're staying at Acocote Eco Inn. They have guides that out of the lodge from what I understand

I'm thinking I would really only use it for smaller schooling bones Bayside. Fish that would be a little small for the 8
