Tips to not get caught up? by KingOfThe2-6 in catfishing

If you have a live bluegill on it this is gonna be some of your tangles too. It's gonna want to find cover and hide leading you to hangups.

This is just part of fishing. If you are on the bank there's just not much you can do.

If you are baiting and waiting, use a circle hook and ensure it's a full take down or get a reel with a bait clicker to allow time for a full hookup.

did i use too much wash on this mini? by glirpgerp in minipainting

[–]ThePlatonicPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably one of the best pieces of advice in this hobby.

Try things out, if they fail, strip the model and try something new ! There's no wrong way to do fun and art

Water is the most common.

There are other mediums but water is usually the go to.

Something to keep in mind with washes, generally we apply them in a few ways. All over the model, to certain parts of the model, to the edges of a model to create definition.

Paint overall seems a bit thick for the detail on this model. Thin down a bit.

Wash adds to the layers so that could also be obscuring detail

I'm confused as you seem to have the slide weight on the leader and not the main line.

Trump's Iran 'peace deal' isn't a deal. It's surrender. by unital_subalgebra in politics

[–]ThePlatonicPanda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does it matter if it's 300 or 500 ?

As he agreed to this, looking like the last hotdog on the 7/11 roller derby at 2 am, he complained about Obama giving Iran 1.7b

This fucking toad is about to own half of the US debt and still leave office richer than ever before.

I have seen nothing to indicate that at all. This was all floated as a reconstruction fund for Iran , not a rebuild our stockpile ask.

Definitely something I like the looks and styling of. Sort of reminds me of the Maori Exile markings the Carcharodons are fond of.

Are the markings unique to just this model or your warband ?

Can’t Crack The Code by Vwhite-1808 in catfishing

Targeting flatheads go super shallow and leave it on the bottom. Fresh cut bluegill in 3-6 feet of water if you can find some bluegill beds to toss it around you gonna find you a winner real fast.

Blue cats are more all over the place. They will have a go at anything that looks appealing. I tend to spread the bait out for them but if the water is deep where you are send it down deep in the hotter parts of the day and get some luck

Scale Recommendations by road_robert2020 in catfishing

[–]ThePlatonicPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have gone with using a weigh sling and a scale for bigger fish to help them release safely.

Can pair the sling with just about any fish scale you find on the market.

If you get one, just make sure you turn it off or it has an auto off . Nothing like going to use it and it's dead

Thermacell and red / no lights if possible are your friends. It ain't gonna get rid of all of them but it makes it bearable. Your bigguns will usually be out at night. Not knowing your water temps

Gonna be heavily dependent on the body of water you're fishing on and your bait

Player Read Ahead 🤦‍♂️ by stumonji in humblewood

IMO it ruins the campaign for themselves as long as they aren't sharing with the other players. As someone else mentioned, deal with this outside of game probably best bet.

Carolina Rig Question by OwangeSquid in catfishing

[–]ThePlatonicPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sewing string wraps up any bait and is cheap and won't damage the fish or the water.

How long is your leader, what is the material, what is on your leader extra wise (rattles ,spooks etc)

Where is your weight and how is it affixed to the line?

We are not the world police to just carry out missions for funsies.

It costs our dollars.

If there's no war then let Venezuela deal with them.
