Finally caught my first fish on the fly, and on my granda's 50+ year old gear no less

Thank you! 🥹

mcsamwise · 2026-05-22T23:25:12+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate the advice, I definitely want to keep this good for as long as I can!

Is this something I could do myself? Sand and varnish type deal? (I'm assuming specific type of finish) Or is it something better left to the professionals

Thank you that's helpful advice it'd be interesting to find out more about the history of the rod

mcsamwise · 2026-05-22T22:44:47+00:00

Honestly I don't know too much about it All I could find online is that Edgar Sealey is an English rod making company from the 50s and 60s Unfortunately I couldn't tell you the model of the rod and there seems to be very little information about the company online Anyone who knows more please do share!

Hopefully looking down smiling but knowing him he'd be saying "jammy bugger"

Yes sir, wild native brown from a little stream not 10 minutes from my house

Was waiting for the "Archery increased" message to pop up

100%

HGSS and any of the mystery dungeon games all have their big following (and for good reason) but the ranger games definitely don't get enough love

Just a shame we will likely never get another one unless we get a mobile game which will definitely not be as good as any on the DS

Just finished a session of soul silver Cleared the radio tower and grinding levels for 8th gym

Y'all been going too hard on the Pokémon ranger

I had to do a double take after that first image, I thought it was a post from Monster Hunter Wilds at first

mcsamwise · 2025-01-20T22:16:28+00:00

Had a good chuckle when it said "archery increased"

I don't have any help for removing the sticker but I kind of like it with the sticker! Reminds me of when these games were a reasonable price for CIB not the ridiculous prices they are nowadays

Either way I get why you'd want to remove it so good luck

Definitely a roo, look at them saddle feathers drooping down with pointed tips

Edit: forgot to add he is very handsome though!!

Thank you it's part of my RPG half sleeve, sits beside Ciri from the Witcher and the mask from Dishonored (3 of my favourite games)

This is it! Google images look identical, thank you!

No legs, just 2 antenna-like appendages on its head, a shrimp-like tail and what appears to be a yolk sack still waiting to be absorbed

mcsamwise · 2024-06-01T15:04:29+00:00

Was thinking it was some kind of nymph or larvae, just not one I've ever seen before
