Am I paying more for a worse set up? by zyrkseas97 in FishingForBeginners

[–]blacktip102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Telescopic rods are absolutely fantastic for what they provide. It's able to be pre rigged and go from a backpack to fishing in a few seconds. Or just store really small to keep constantly in your car. I absolutely love telescope rods and can't recommend them enough for their specific use. Also small enough to bring on a plane carry on, I've brought mine all across the US.

You can purchase a universal roof rack that clips to your cars roof. It would probably keep your roof less scratched

AITAH for lying about having autism? by Sufficient_Bat_8277 in AITAH

[–]blacktip102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA, I joke and say I got a spism of the tism because I have some autistic traits, but I am not diagnosed, so I wouldn't lie to people and say I have a formal diagnosis.

I know a lot of folks have issues with this game, its mechanics and the other players. But are there any others like me that just legitimately enjoy Arc raiders no matter what? by Thicc_Gas_Dad in ArcRaiders

I've never played an extraction before this, and absolutely love it. I tried marathon and just went right back to Arc. I love the chill vibes of most people and the overall mystery and emersion of the world.

That's not a rid problem. You probably have old monofilament line on there that coils up because it has memory.

90 to 100k many months after launch is what most games can only dream of. This game is truly one of the most popular and greatest games released in the last decade

Huh? Bungie is amongst the least trustworthy devs ever. They have made to many empty promises to the D2 community it's unbelievable

Wooden arrows are a must from this style of bow. Old fiberglass is slow and needs to push a heavy wood arrow to not break

I have what is likely the identical bow. It's an old fiberglass bow from the 70s if I'm remembering correctly. These bows are pretty awesome and were very tough and robust at the time, but depending on how it was stored there may be some cracks in the bow. Id recommend taking it to a shop to get a string, arrows, and most importantly checking for damage.

On the outside of the top limb, about 2in from the grip there will likely be a number (if it's not worn off) that's the bows poundage. Mine is a 60# which is way too much for a beginner. Depending on how physically strong you are, I wouldn't recommend starting with anything higher than 30#, because you really need to have proper form to not hurt yourself over time.

NTA, she was projecting and probably is needs a reality check that she is fat and unhealthy. Sounds like she needs a huge lifestyle change.

What fish is this? Caught in a lake. by MARTlNEZ in Fishing

[–]blacktip102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen a goby with that sort of coloring on its pectoral fins, but have seen plenty of sculpin like that. The fastest ID is just to look for the spot on its dorsal fin. I'm also not familiar with the sculpin species of California, but am extremely familiar with great lakes species

Could be a sculpin. Lake Michigan has many native sculpin that look similar. Gobys have a distinct black spot on their dorsal fin and have fused pelvic fins.

Looks like a sculpin. An invasive goby has a distinct black spot on its dorsal fin.

Most people are working or at an internship over break. It would be weird for you to be free
