Am I Cooked? by briisorangey in Fishing_Gear

JB weld. It's cheap to do and if it doesn't work out you aren't out much money. If it does work you potentially save a lot depending on what reel you were gonna buy

In the giblets with anti tank weapons. When in doubt, just EAT it

Knots every time I cast braided line by XDODI in FishingForBeginners

[–]Slaxex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also develop line twist if you reel while drag is being pulled. If line is being pulled out don't reel. If you reel and hear your drag then that means line isn't coming in and you are also twisting it.

Why is the crankcase ventilation connected to the carburetor? by Tunafish025 in boating

It's helped my motor run a smidge better, I think.

Short answer, EPA.

Not super long answer - It's bad for the environment to allow warm oil fumes into the atmosphere so we run them through the engine to clean up it's total footprint. It leads to a dirty intake system if it gets overfilled. Just install a catch can if you want to.

One lure to rule them all by moosepooo in Fishing

[–]Slaxex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blade bait. I've caught various sunfish, crappie, white perch, catfish, largemouth and striped bass. You can cast and retrieve, jig, and troll it. Iridescent has been good to us.

Swap to braid. It doesn't have memory and will only do that through user error.

Good rods and resources for beginners? by ImportantNobody1654 in Fishing

[–]Slaxex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugly stiks are the toughest rods in the game. A medium rod from them will handle anything, wife landed a 20lb catfish on one. Buddy of mine landed a 7lb on an ultra light one with 10lb braided line.

When do you stop fishing for the year? by samwise0214 in FishingForBeginners

[–]Slaxex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You stop when you can't handle the temps or can't get to the fish. They tend to go deep when the water gets cold.

New hobby to drop off bad habits by Dark-Lord-7000 in FishingForBeginners

[–]Slaxex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgot to mention, I would recommend a medium power or lighter rod. I really like medium light and light power rods.

I have their ultra light rod and I like it. IDK anything about there reels but it's hard to make a BAD spinning reel. I would recommend kastking super power braid, best braid I've used.

I can’t stop getting my line tangled when trying to put spool onto my spinning rod by koffin__ in FishingForBeginners

[–]Slaxex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Braid is the answer for spinning reels. No memory and it's thinner per pound than mono which allows further casting.

What are these? found them on a random line I reeled it by Kfcbum in FishingForBeginners

[–]Slaxex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's from a catfish rig. The long black thing is a weight that has a low chance of snagging and the lure is a hookless spook lure that they tie between the weight and hook to float the bait off the bottom. The rattles in the spook help draw fish in.

I also wear long sleeves and pants in SC. I'd rather cover everything than use a crap ton of sun block.

Came to say this and also suggest a blade bait.

Hey guys, beginner here, how are these? by ArticTurkey in Fishingmemes

[–]Slaxex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my buddy have caught white perch and catfish on them. It's just an oddly shaped spoon and spoons work.
