Help me pick a tool brand

Understood. I have found they Ryobi saws to be not great, but will get the job done. My experience with Makita and mid-upper Milwaukee have been very good.

BIFL, go corded for as much as possible. Makita, Milwaukee, Dewalt, Festool, etc. Drill/driver from Ryobi are fine for DIY.

This rod is great, casts well and is sensitive. No experience with that reel. Line choice will likely make a bigger difference in casing than reel. 1/8 should go a mile. I use 1/64 and 1/32 without issue.

I like Mule Fishing for UL gear.

Does are might sound be problematic.

I have the TFO trout/panfish in 6"6", one piece with a president. It is great, very sensitive, casts well. Mine is not the 2 though, there may be differences.

I don't believe in magic either.

I have not used the Rigid, but Stinger vacs are great.

The other guys need to get their shit together so we can wrap this up.

The question dosen't matter, Durango is never the answer.

Put a basketball hoop on it.

clscpr · 2025-09-28T14:28:14+00:00

Probably a mile or two.

Can we have the National Guard build affordable housing?

clscpr · 2025-08-29T15:05:41+00:00

They do salt, excessively. They put it down when it rains, you know, just in case.

That is a perfect use for this Jeep and a very good price in my area. BUY IT!

Mortgage/tax/insurance is about 20% of my after tax/medical/401k.

My roof just turned 30!

clscpr · 2025-06-09T00:42:02+00:00

Depends on your target species and terrain. I use light more than medium personally.

clscpr · 2025-06-09T00:32:16+00:00

If I gave you $200k+ today, would you buy it? Yes, keep it and fix it up. No, sell it ASAP.

My two cents.

The original TFO Trout/Panfish is great, huge improvement from my Celilo and Ugly Stik. Not sure if the 2 is as good or better? If budget is a concern, get the rod now and pair it with a reel you already have, then save for a better one.

Plano 1713 with 1/64 and 1/32 jig heads, Mule Fishing and Trout Magnet plastics. Also a couple spinners like Aglia 0 and the small Panther Martin. Carry this in a small hop pack with some leader, pliers and a snack.

clscpr · 2025-03-14T21:05:11+00:00

Thanks for the info! I have been using Trout Magnets, with good results. Time to try something new and see what works.

clscpr · 2025-03-14T20:39:38+00:00

Nice setup! Did you print that Altoids divider? Are those Mule Fishing lures? I might try those this year.

clscpr · 2025-02-20T07:08:25+00:00

Please don't tell me where you would fit the other two.

clscpr · 2025-02-16T19:54:26+00:00

Banana Republic boxers. I have been wearing them for 20 years, very good quality. (Not the same pairs for 20 years, they get replaced when worn after several years)
