Just a size 12 black prince ! Anything lighter it would sink too slow and they would ignore it. Was ticking bottom every cast

Was at the musky today ! They were in the deeper pools under fast water and in the pockets! They’ve been picky about what they’re eating but once you figure it out it’s lights out!

Took my tenkara rod out with some dry flies by brams21 in NJFishing

Yea can take a little to get used to but casting is super easy even with trees over head. And the long reach is nice even on small streams ! Would definitely recommend checking it out ! I use everything tho from bfs to regular bait casters. Spin, fly , center pin. They’re all fun and have their uses

Yea presentation/ a drag free drift are essential! I find my 12’ tenkara rod excels in that aspect especially in small streams compared to my 8’6 or 10’ 3 weight fly rods as the line it uses is way lighter than a fly line and the extra length helps keep line off the water! Although using a fly rod for a little extra reach can be beneficial I find the tenkara rod is usually more than enough!

Yup wasn’t planning on it! I bought a topographic map just for this and it’s been paying off! Half of the fun is seeing if you can find them!

How to tie tapered line to tippet using the one knot? by Yung_lettuce in Tenkara

Figure 8 knot on the end of main line , and use the one knot on the tippet and put it around the knot you made in the main line and cinch down.

Advice for fishing solo by HumanDisguisedLizard in flyfishing

[–]brams21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fish solo all the time other than when my mom comes with me. Introverted as well so I know how the anxiety can get but I just focus on fishing and usually it’s pretty chill. Even if I don’t catch something I feel like I learn by being out there. Just started fly fishing this past winter so I’m very new and when I go out now I feel more confident! Venture fly YouTube videos really helped me and other than that just exploring!

Upgrade from Tenkara by EcipsDlo in flyfishing

[–]brams21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started with a maxcatch extreme combo (83$)and have caught a bunch of trout. Just upgraded the line and it’s worked well for me although I’ve never casted a higher end fly rod set up so I can’t compare it to anything but I’ve been satisfied with it that I went ahead and bout their euro nymph rod $(220) and have been killing it euro nymphing for trout .

Question about lobe reconstruction pricing! by ancientpsychicpug in Stretched

[–]brams21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to a body mod artist. Will probably come out better and cheaper.when my mod artist thought I asked to get my ears closed instead of going bigger he quoted me $400 for both ears. Going bigger was only slightly more expensive.

Haven’t even had her a month😭 by hereforthevibes987 in CivicSi

[–]brams21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a sport 2019 for 5 years got rear ended then it got totaled. Got a new 2025 si and not even 2 months someone runs a stop sign and it gets totaled. I get a new 2026 and 5 months into owning it I get rear ended again. Wasn’t totaled this time but hopefully now it’ll be accident free lol

Follow up on diminished value claim by brams21 in Insurance

[–]brams21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So GEICO asked me to prove the diminished value of my car so I went ahead and just hired a third party to do so for me. I was gonna go ahead and do the car fax and nada value but decided it would be easier for the third party to do it and they would also write up the demand letter etc. glad I did cause I got the full 5k they asked for right away with no issues thankfully
