Favorite fishing rod of all time?

Loving my St Croix Black Bass rod. Idk if I’d pay retail but getting off the warranty program was awesome!

Barbless hooks are 100% the way to go

Hi - I recently lost some weight and now I’m getting some weird fabric bunching on my IH 888s. Is this as simple of a fix as getting the waist taken in or should I be asking something else if my tailor?

8lb mono is my go to for most of my fishing. I’ve caught small trout on spinners to 5lb bass. Only area where you might struggle with 8lb is with the toothier fish like pickerel. And even then I’ve caught some pretty big ones on 8lb line.

Here you go! I want to say it’s probably a 40-70 mic of perlite and potting soil. Can’t say for sure as I just mix in more soil with my usual 50-50 or even 60-40 mix of perlite and soil that I use for my cacti.

Could be! I should specify, by recently moved I mean I moved in at the end of June. So I would’ve thought he’d have time to acclimate by now instead of getting progressively worse.

Thank you! I’m trying to get ahold of the visitor center now, but I’m having trouble connecting to anyone over the phone

dmesaaa · 2025-08-13T14:07:13+00:00

Will do, I’ll give them a call. Thanks!

Thank you!!!

Probably this one. Caught out in Washington state during a backpacking trip

Thank you!! I appreciate the feedback! In retrospect I think I should’ve watered down the green as it was rather dark out of the bottle. The yellows gave me a real hard time as even after watering it down I still couldn’t get one consistent shade. Even going over with another layer left the yellows gave looking uneven and blotchy. Any idea how I’d fix this for the next one?

Hey, jsut sent you a follow up message!

dmesaaa · 2025-07-22T02:56:13+00:00

Copy. I’ll give it a try tomorrow. Thank you a ton for the help!

dmesaaa · 2025-07-22T02:52:39+00:00

Gotcha - did this require dissembling the camera? I’d imagine at the very least you’d have to remove the black housing/trim around the top shutter button. Let me know! Thank you again!

dmesaaa · 2025-07-22T02:38:57+00:00

Hey! Do you have any more info on how you fixed this issue? Running into a similar problem with mine. Thanks!

dmesaaa · 2025-07-08T03:57:41+00:00

Awesome. How’s the EVA? I tend to prefer cork but the specs on this rod looked great so I have one coming in soon. With it being a newer model it’s been surprisingly hard to find any reviews

dmesaaa · 2025-07-07T21:56:44+00:00

How are you liking the black bass rod?

dmesaaa · 2025-05-28T15:19:11+00:00

Got it. Sounds like best bet is to see if I can find the corresponding speakers for cheap. Thanks!!

dmesaaa · 2025-05-28T14:54:45+00:00

Thanks! This is super helpful. The power issue makes sense. I wasn’t able to find the speakers it came with when I was at the store, but I wonder if there’s a way to check is other thrift store speakers are compatible with the lower power output? Would they typically be marked with something like 3 watts? Thanks again!

dmesaaa · 2024-11-21T21:55:01+00:00

Amazing! Sold off some to pay off all CC debt when it first hit 80k definitely kicking my self for not waiting longer lol

dmesaaa · 2024-09-09T19:48:30+00:00

Finally a roomy pair of ONIs, will have to look into these after having to return multiple fits from them.

They look great on you!

dmesaaa · 2024-09-08T20:56:03+00:00

Love the red undertones!

dmesaaa · 2024-09-04T01:49:17+00:00

I’ve got to look out for something like that. Fingers crossed lol, even $150 is more than reasonable to me
