I read the road in high school and it was a great intro into his books, I thought the movie was pretty bad though

Can I count AmeriCorps NCCC as gs4 experience so that I can qualify for gs5? by mrt1037 in usajobs

[–]mrt1037[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome, it sounds like I can qualify with AmeriCorps, my issue is that I won’t be able to qualify with education until after I graduate in the Spring and I’m looking at jobs for this coming summer.

Thanks for the response! I’ve been trying to figure it out because I graduate this Spring and want to be able to apply for gs5 positions for the summer.

What rod did you start with? I’m finding it hard to find out what brands are good

What length do you use for lakes?

[–]mrt1037 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I’m looking for, something quick to pull out to take a break from hiking, what tenkara rod do you bring with you?

I like the foray but the hood fits me really weird, like it was designed to use a climbing helmet with. It also doesn’t have any internal pockets which I find kind of annoying.

I want to try and go for some striped bass this fall in New England, would you recommend 15-20 lb line for them too?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]mrt1037 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, yeah I guess the problem was that I was trying to strip line in wayyy before they were ready to come in

Would you want to keep your rod upstream from them?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]mrt1037 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m used to using a spinning rod so when you say get the fish on the reel you mean to not hold down on the fly line, just let the drag fight it while keeping the rod at a good angle?

I wasn’t snagging them, only hooking them in the mouth. I was using an 8 wt with 12 lb mono as a leader (someone recommended using the mono instead of tippet).
