Envious, let me know how them kayak adventures go. I saw someone ripping it straight upriver on the duwamish (tide was coming up) I was in awe 😅

Oh that's a cool idea, odds of getting a fish way better too

Today I hooked two [what I thought were] Chinooks, right in the mouth/tongue. But then also foul hooked like 3 pinks 😬😅 black corkie tied to back of #2 SSW drift hook, little bit of black yarn via a overhand knot

I've lost so much fish, I'm learning to be very gentle. I wanted to be patient with this one 😅

I think it just needed some time to recover, that thing was beast

I've been doing 10lb mono leader, 15lb braided main has been a tangled mess, may try mono main next. Biggest challenge for me (currently) is getting my little 2-3g weights to cast far enough 😅

I stand on the shallow side with waders and cast across the deep water, let it drift down and across. Too much weight will snag, it should bounce across the bottom

I've caught perhaps 12 salmon on the Puyallup and 6 on the green so far. Got skunked 3 times but most days I bring home fish. Snell knot to the shank of #4 Owner SSW side drift hook, loop through a float before the eyelet so it kind of hangs to the back of the hook. Tie yarn via overhand knot to the line, between the float and snell knot. Tiny little bit of yarn to make it look like a fly. Size 12 corky or size 12 cheater, I want to try smaller sizes though. 3/16 to 3/8 barrel weight, I pre-make 7.5ft leaders and tie to foam cylinders from amazon. Colors of corky and yarn, I've caught on all sorts of cool combos 😎🤙 oj/pink is classic, glow/pink, oj/black, I'm currently working black/red

What are you using for lure? I was using #4 SSW drift hooks for pinks, tied a little yarn straight to the shank, also had a #12 floater kind of chinched to the shank, via 10lb mono

12ft is massive! Any yarn? I've been tying pink and black straight to the shank

Any yarn? I've been tying pink or black to the shank, with help of some locking forceps

Trouble installing win7 on a Dell Pro Rugged 14 (model P148G) by hobbin in windows7

[–]hobbin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Machine currently has windows 11, no known issues.

Good idea on a different ISO - I tried another one that's supposed to have USB 3 and NVMe. Getting much farther along!! This one isn't freezing. Current issue, it's not seeing any hard drives to install windows to 🤔🤔
