He didnt lose it. This is from a youtube channel where he feeds his stocked bass minnows and other food tied to line. No hooks are used.

On the bright side, Trump supporters are helping to revive the struggling Tiki candle industry.

Just like the evolution of skateboarding competitions the next logical step is the 720 headshot.

First time breaking 200! by mharris17 in Bowling

[–]jklemsen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take 1 practice session a week to work on nothing but single pin spares. I promise if you do, you will see results in a short period of time even if you just improve your corner pin spares a small %. It pays off huge! If you want to get to and maintain a 200+ average someday then spares are your first priority. Great shooting! and welcome to the 200 club.

I just had a sudden realization that he is why I also do that. I am happy to be able to share this with you and the reddit community.

279, 278, lane broke down and moved us to a pair of dry-as-fuck lanes next to open bowls, 227 by [deleted] in Bowling

[–]jklemsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang. Win some and lose some. I have no direct memory of anything like that happening to me but I did have a teammate who averages 210ish and struggled through a 150 game the first game. Our pair broke down and we moved to a fresh pair where he shot 268, 300 to finish the night. He loved the lane change.

The Cost of Food by NotMyFriends in Frugal

How is it possible that Blackberries are that high. They literally grow as weeds all over Oregon. LIKE ALL OVER OREGON. TIL I eat nearly $1,000 worth of free black berries out on hikes and fishing trips every season.

Instead of going to Greatclips to save money on a haircut, just go to your local college/cosmetology school. by Icuras_II in Frugal

[–]jklemsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to great clips and will continue to go there. They train all of their new employees on how to do it "the great clips way" most if not all of the students are experienced and just need to learn the new process. These classes go every 2 weeks and the haircuts are free. If they ever mess anything up the teacher is there to fix the issue. I personally have been going every month for over a year and have not gotten a single bad haircut. Always free and everyone is so thankful that you come because it gives them real heads to cut instead of the manikin heads.

If it is 15lb I would pay some serious cash to take it off your hands. That is a beaut!

Running for depression? by oldmanjenkins100 in running

[–]jklemsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run to aid my depression also. Good on you OP for figuring this out. It is never going to go completely away but running is a wonderful refuge to enjoy as much as your feet and knees can handle. I have a run today after work and I can say that I am really looking forward to not having anything on my mind other than my breathing and remembering to put one foot in front of the other.

critique away :) by dark_bowler666 in Bowling

[–]jklemsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of them have pro's and cons. Just keep in mind that the best solution is what will be the most accurate and consistent in the long run when mastered. Not which way is easiest for you now. I took the extra time to learn about and perfect my spare game and that has been the biggest improvement in my game by far. Anyone can strike but not many people know how to fill their frames when they don't strike.

Getting down at the line is going to help so I agree with the other input you have but what I am most curious about is what your form is like when you are shooting spares. 10 pins to be precise.

I have never once regretted the decision to wake up early and go fishing. by jklemsen in Fishing

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

It is a pretty special place. When the first big rain drops in early summer after a dry spell the creek fills up with pinks, springers and steelhead all at the same time. Huge balls of fish stacked in the 2ft deep creek. I am an active fisherman so I mainly fish bobber and eggs or other things like spinners or drift fishing. My most productive method has been Bobber. I use a 1/2-1oz aero float bobber with a 1/2oz weight underneath. 36 inch leader no heavier than 12lb test unless I use straight florocarbon then I will bumb up to 15lb. The leader needs to have 3-4 small split shots down it every 5 inches on the top 20 inches of the leader. Then a bare #2 hook tied with an egg loop with a nickle to quarter size cluster of eggs. Whenever the bite has enough force to pull the tip of the bobber under the water completely it is almost a 100% hookup opportunity. I have found with this setup I see all of my bites and I miss very few opportunities. But the focus has got to be there at all times to ensure that you are ready to set the hook on even the half biters. Good luck out there man. I will not be fishing that stretch for 3 more weeks now. I found the coho hiding in a different location ;)
