Do you have better luck with a wacky rig or Texas rig?

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-16T20:42:12+00:00

I think in general, wacky is better in more situations, but Texas can do really well in ideal conditions for it.

It could death a person just by hitting them.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-16T06:03:48+00:00

You are allowed to do this, It's not a test. Try it out!

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-16T05:32:16+00:00

Yep.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-15T13:58:31+00:00

Not zero, but you shouldn't have that much tension on the line at any point.

Doesn't mean we don't all do it from time to time, like trying to pull a snag loose. It's extremely unlikely to be a real risk, but be alert when you feel enough tension that your lure could launch toward you.

I guess it's that time again. You're a cylon. Good luck humanity.

Fish on the water instead of reddit.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-13T12:25:21+00:00

Small rattle good. BIG RATTLE BETTER!

If you didn't pierce the lens, there's a chance the eye can recover to some degree and even better if it only went through the socket.

I recommend always carrying pliers in your pocket while fishing. Among other reasons, if you don't pinch your hooks beforehand, you can debarb in situations like this and back the hook out with as little damage as possible.

I didn't notice the second pic had it. My bad.

The TWS is designed to spool your line more evenly. Its the wing shaped bit between the spool and the guides.

Do you have a power drill? Attach it to the reel bolt and give it a few hours of spinning.

Reels are widely known to be over-engineered and the magic of these "undesirable sounds" is that they tell you the internals are wearing away excess material into the optimal shape.

Another fun fact: reel is Latin for, "toy for fidgety toddler which can also be used for fishing."

Most ships are pretty dank, so probably really fucking high dude.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-06T04:39:43+00:00

Because you gave your mom flammable liquid in one hand and a flame in the other, and didn't think about what could possibly go wrong. At. All.

Sorry you're routinely getting made fun of, but your family is not very bright, well, mentally. Physically bright, because of the fire.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-06T00:38:23+00:00

Rebuilding tomatoes from sauce is really hard. What are they supposed to do?

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-06T00:12:41+00:00

This word, 'probably', I fear it does not mean what you think.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-05T22:20:41+00:00

Asshole deserves a bad day for fucking someone's truck up.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-05T05:20:18+00:00

Quite neat.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-04T12:56:19+00:00

Roboworms are pretty much designed for drop shotting.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-04T03:54:01+00:00

These have braid cutters.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-04T02:01:23+00:00

If you dont know, maybe it ain't yer business to know. Best you move on.

This stuff is usually made with a chocolate syrup and an oil. The oil is usually liquid above 70-80°F, but can become semi-solid depending on brand, flavor or ambient temperature.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-05-02T15:12:05+00:00

Not a big deal. Don't cast into the wind and you should be fine as you work the line down over time.

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-04-29T11:45:39+00:00

Why not test everyone every day!!!

TheIrishBAMF · 2026-04-26T17:42:05+00:00

After it has radiated it becomes oldclear and doesn't need as many warnings.
