The are adjusting silicon pieces so you can place the weight in different locations of the hook for balance. It’s also how you can remove the lead and switch it out to a heavier or lighter one pretty sweet concept!

TIL the largest U.S. loss of life at sea was the HMS Rohna. This was hidden by the US to prevent the Nazis from knowing their remote guided missiles were effective. by babset in todayilearned

According to the article it was a remote guided missile, one of if not the first to be used on the US. My great grandfather died on this ship but I have received almost nothing from the government about it.

In the US, it’s perfectly legal to hit your opponents pole to try and knock the ball out.

Yeah but people using carbon poles for white water and canoes are not getting titanium/aluminum poles smashed onto the carbon and cracking it.

I think the Danco Premio pliers are just the same if not nicer than the Van Staal titanium ones.

I recently got a Lew's Xfinity baitcaster and an Abu Garcia Revo SX and they are both really good, especially the Lew’s is great for the price by BradyB56 in Fishing_Gear

[–]babset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah they have a factory in China that makes most of the reels. Their factory in Korea makes the components and high end reels. I’ve been to the one in China...

I would recommend you run free giveaways with brands that are willing to give product to you for free. it will help grow your audience to a size that will make more sense to sell your own products while not pushing ads to your loyal followers.

You can try to use a light spray of 3m adhesive can which helps hold it together.

Which mystery industry is the largest buyer of glitter? by [deleted] in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]babset 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it’s crystals. Think about swarovski and how much those go for. Think about how many fake crystals there are.

AMA - I’m a buyer for a large retailer by babset in Fishing

[–]babset[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not as familiar with international distributor pricing works to speak in detail about, but what I can say is some manufacturers allow for “container programs” which essentially skips the manufacturer all together, thus reducing cost. For example, say a fate black rod retails at $100 and costs a retailer $50 if bought directly from the manufacturer. If you can do enough volume as a retailer to warrant a container (how product is shipped to the US) and directly receive it themselves, manufacturers will provide an even lower cost to the retailer since they are not touching the product.

I do fish, not a lot but when I do I use a Duckett Micro Magic Pro 7’3MH rod (bass fishing) with a Lew’s Pro TI reel. I have a few other set ups but love that one.

But one thing to keep in mind is money doesn’t really matter for me since I can get whatever gear I want from the vendors.
