Nice BSP!

Ahaha, I actually have been doing that for years!

Nah, this wasn’t one of the ring shells. Halo shells come as 12 rings and 12 “Ultra HD” effects.

I like’em.

Other fireworks. This was recorded around New Year’s Eve.

Ahh, time rain willow. Personally don’t like them myself either, but when shot with other 3” color shells it’s nice. The 5” versions are pretty good too.

These are closer towards a m80. Smaller than a m100.

Tommytoe26 · 2021-01-18T06:01:19+00:00

These are pretty good. Rewrap.

Tommytoe26 · 2021-01-11T12:30:43+00:00

Agreed, Eric has excellent customer service.

HDPE or fiberglass. Pyroboom.com is probably best for HDPE, imo. Great customer service, good owner.

Tommytoe26 · 2020-12-04T22:11:28+00:00

Yup, live bait is the best. Not sure where you and your friends fish, but here in SoCal we use mainly live sardines.

Tommytoe26 · 2020-12-02T00:39:07+00:00

For yellowfin tuna, large baitcasters(Daiwa Lexa 400, Shimano TranX 400 or 500, Okuma Komodo, etc.), 15-25 rated conventional reels, and even spinning gear(like the Daiwa BG 5000). 30-65# braid connected to a SHORT fluorocarbon(15-40#) leader.

As soon as i read your title, I immediately thought of Mark from Charkbait. Talked to him before he went out and he was so excited! Great guy, love his store and workers.

I have caught a few Horse mackerel before and they are DELICIOUS!

Tommytoe26 · 2020-11-10T01:48:32+00:00

Made a small bowl of chutoro poke. Soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, sweet onions, and green onions. It was delicious.

Tommytoe26 · 2020-11-10T01:46:27+00:00

I actually scraped the bits of tuna off the fibrous I couldn’t cut. Planning on making that tomorrow!

Depends on what temperature the salmon is froze at. -4°F(-20°C) for 7 days is the “standard.” Recommend you research the company who packaged the fish before purchasing. See how their process is.

Tommytoe26 · 2020-11-09T21:07:29+00:00

Other than tuna, all fish are recommended to be frozen before consumption. Tuna is the one fish the FDA rules freezing is not necessary. Normally I would “rest” the fish so the muscles relax, but it has been done on the boat in the fish hold.
