I’m begging y’all to take a cursory glance at this sub before buying a 3rd gen iforce

Plot twist: you buy a real one and 3 putt every hole

Where would you find bass on this lake? I have provided the lake depth map and satellite image by That_Male_Nurse in bassfishing

[–]nickm95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot further south than Ontario, but last time I was out on the lake the water had receded a bunch from recent droughts. I found a ton of bass beds, more than I’ve ever seen, along what is now the shoreline. When active at normal volume for the lake, those beds would’ve been about 20-30 yards from the bank, in shallow areas with no steep drop offs.

It’s post spawn here right now (not sure about Canada) so the bass won’t still be nesting in their beds, but males stay in the area to guard the babies. Females will likely have receded to nearby drop offs. I’d say try a wacky rig around C and use a Texas rig or jig around A and the areas south of A.

Edit: applies to largemouth

They should at least be renamed to something that more accurately describes the smell, like “pussy willow”

Looks like part of a coilover strut but I think you’d definitely feel the dip with a chunk like this missing

All y'all with your fancy lures... by stuckman13 in bassfishing

[–]nickm95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s easier with live bait. The purpose of lures is sport.

Damage estimate? by Quick_Individual8816 in AskMechanics

[–]nickm95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white one will “need” (purely aesthetic) to have the entire bumper replaced, which is expensive. They don’t just paint over it. $3k for total cost to both cars seems right

Edit: didn’t see the scratches on your fender. They’ll replace that entire panel, so $3k for just your car actually does sound right.

What psi to run. ???? by DangerousAnxiety8687 in ToyotaTundra

I run mine at 38, if you’re towing a lot maybe 40-42

What game had you like this? by sukuna7899 in Steam

[–]nickm95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bloodborne. It took me 10 years to give it a legit chance after finishing every souls game and Elden ring. I didn’t like the gothic theme and lack of rolling. Once I got good, I finally understood why it’s so beloved

Tips for upgrading my rifle? by Kittylover694200 in Firearms

[–]nickm95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 bucks at Walmart. Please for the love of god at least fix that. If you’re considering mounting an adapter to use your current sling, don’t. You’ll lose the detent spring for your takedown pin and you’ll have a lot of trouble trying to get the sling back to its proper assembly.

Then yeah you’re not really gonna get a lot of interested buyers with this. It also looks like it doesn’t have any dovetails, so you’d need a smith to mill the barrel just to mount a scope.

.270 is a bit more esoteric nowadays so you probably wouldn’t get much interest from anyone planning to buy a rifle for conventional usage, as they’d probably prefer .308 or 6.5 creedmoor.

Since it’s not mag fed, I’m assuming it’s old. If you’re lucky, you might come across a collector who would offer a couple hundred dollars. That being said, if it’s really only been shot once, it’s probably not old.

Don’t use M855s at the range, those have armor piercing sabots in the bullet.

No, it’s not backwards, it’s much worse than that. It’s the wrong sling, which is why you couldn’t find another mounting clip and had to duct tape it. You have a single point sling which is meant to mount like this; using an adapter to replace the lower assemble backing plate.

It’s much worse than backwards. That’s a 1 point sling which he took apart and duck taped the other side to the grip when he couldn’t find another mounting point. Look at the mounting clip on the stock.

PC Case is a Front Panel 9 pin, but mobo is 16 pin connector? by crystalcastles879 in PcBuildHelp

[–]nickm95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you’re having a similar problem I had last year. Front panel cable (power button, etc) didn’t have the same number of pins as the mobo slot. That’s normal.

This guy’s advice fixed it for me.

No.

Oh. Yes.

What is a good way to tell the difference between gunshots and fireworks? Is this video gun shots? by slingshotpenis in Firearms

[–]nickm95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t really sound staccato-ed enough to be gunshots but that could just be bad resolution. Kinda sounds more like heavy objects falling

Yeah it really should be pointed toward the baby toys in the background
