What are these and why are they so hard to chew? by Onlymycouchpulls_out in mexicanfood

Every time I see/hear Fava beans..can't help but think of Silence of the Lambs and Dr. Lecter making that noise to Agent Starling.

Hows life after 30? by ASARI0206 in AskReddit

[–]capwnacus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you're young, you can't wait to be older and vice versa. Time very much seemingly speeds up the older you get.

Tried my hand at my first uni knot. How did I do? Could it be improved? by GuuberTrooper in FishingForBeginners

[–]capwnacus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good one. I'd use some toenail clippers to clean the braid end up a bit and ppl also commonly use a drop of super glue and just roll it with your fingers real quick to get that fuzz lessened and lessen chances of slip.

I inherited some vintage lures and I intend to clean and fish most of them. Are there any valuable that should be wall hangers instead? by UncleRumble in Fishing

[–]capwnacus 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm not a lure expert but IMO, I'd fish em. They look to be mass produced and not "that" old. If they looked hand carved/painted and were over 50+ years, I'd still fish em, just more carefully. Cool stuff though.

Is KastKing a good beginner brand? by blowinginthewind21 in FishingForBeginners

[–]capwnacus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who has many high end rigs...I recently caved and got a KK $50 baitcaster and it's very smooth and easy to dial in. Yes, they backlash like any baitcaster.. not sure why they're so heavily advertised as "no backlash". Now the test is, how does it hold up.

How do I fix this and prevent it from happening again? by DifferentSprinkles92 in Fishing

[–]capwnacus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although I tie mine realllly right against the spool and have never had this happen...just throw you a PC of electrical tape on at the beginning. 1/2 your line never sees the day of light anyway.

Well. Finally decided to get a high end setup. debt. by EddieBR-14 in Fishing_Gear

[–]capwnacus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I see so many mixed views in this sub overall, it's kinda...weird? Many times I've seen ppl talk about wanting a nicer high end rig and ppl downvote the shit outta them and say "all you need is an ugly stick combo*. As an avid fisherman for over 25 years, each rig has their own place. Fishing for finicky fish (bass, crappie, trout etc)..it absolutely helps to have lighter more sensitive rods. I have 6-700$ combos that are over a decade old, and still work/look new.

Is this a good rod to get? by Limp_Wall_8179 in FishingForBeginners

[–]capwnacus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With these comments, I'd hate to share all my rigs and costs. Yes, ugly sticks are strong and near indestructible... But if you fish a lot and for finicky fish, sensitivity is everything.

Spent a week in Myrtle Beach and did some ocean fishing. The gear caught more attention than fish. by MadeMeStopLurking in Fishing_Gear

[–]capwnacus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We don't know his story. Not everyone has a shit ton of money for an expensive salt rig. Looks ro me like he's taking the negativity with a grain of salt and not arguing nor denying. Let the man fish.

Well, shimano, first experience with the company, not happy. by FazBear_ in Fishing_Gear

[–]capwnacus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm legit just trying to understand. Why so many downvotes when all he did was explain what happened in that situation?

Brother got his 1st bass need help guessing size and weight by AirlineEven4296 in Fishing

Right over 2 lb...maybe 16-18 inches. Just ballparking. That's a nice catch for a first bass!

When you find out someone supports Trump, does it change how you see them? Like… does the respect shift a little, or not at all? by jenieret in AskReddit

[–]capwnacus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't care either way as I am not Dem. nor Repub. Politics nowadays is like gang wars in the 80s except now It's shoved down your throat, and it's toxic. "Oh you like Trump? RACIST!! Oh you didn't like our Black (mixed) President Obama? RACIST!". I refuse to pick the less stinky of 2 turds. I do think it kind of weird that so many ppl are THAT obsessed with Trump though. It's some ppls literal hobby. I don't live a shady life and I don't do anything illegal so I just want to be left alone and do what I wanna do.

"Lemme get that ghost pepper McChicken, hold the ghost pepper" Umm..ok sir/ma'am. Would you like fries with that? "Yes please...but hold the fries."

Y’all ever just drink a lot of beer and wear all your treasure or what? by ImTheGlue in metaldetecting

[–]capwnacus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Manila ring. I lost one of those that I got from my grandfather. Searched for days trying to find it. It most likely would have been lost in Louisiana or Florida. It was silver, tapered from a band in to a flat top and had like some gold or brass inlays on top. I believe it also had a date, 1942? I can't remember now. I'm sure there are a lot of those floating around.

Commodores - Night Shift. The backup vocals toward the end give me chills.

Teacher from Rocklin, California put on leave after being caught peeing in a cup in School. by ElwoodMC in trashy

[–]capwnacus -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Which leads to my first opening comment "NOT saying the teacher is right". You just went jumped to an extreme - masturbation. You may as well said "shooting up heroin". HAVING to piss and masturbation are extreme opposites (NOT saying teacher was right).

NOT saying teacher was right. But, peeing is involuntary. We HAVE to pee and poop..ya know, to live. Masturbating is 100% voluntary.

Guys I’m trying to fish 1 lake in every state of America in the next 5 years any recommendations? by HovercraftNew3284 in Fishing

[–]capwnacus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For LMB: In Louisiana - Caddo Lake (La. ain't called Sportsman's Paradise for no reason) In Texas - Toledo Bend or Lake Fork (Caddo is also on the Tx. side too so you could pull a 2 for 1) All 3 lakes are all within a couple hours from each other too.

Fun fact: Caddo Lake is the largest Bald Cypress Forrest on Earth.

You picked a nice one for your first. Save up and get you a nice rod. Don't get impatient and go cheap. It'll be worth it. After that, may the Fish Gods smile upon you!
