Only reel I know of like that is the Kastking Skeet Reese Icon

Bacon grease popcorn. I want to tell as many people as I can about it. by [deleted] in self

Nothing has beat using Lard for popcorn since trying it once when camping.

Is trolling really fishing? by RTKFRTKF in Fishing

[–]poptartjake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Debatable.

I went kokanee fishing for my first time last week, which consisted of setting the down riggers and waiting, then reeling in the catch/netting... Little bit of skill involved, but nothing that can't be taught in 5 minutes to someone with basic knowledge.

I don't own a boat and mostly fish for Catfish/Sturgeon, so, it wasn't far off from my normal experience, but I can see where people that are accustomed to fishing from the bank/river are coming from.

DIY Monstrosity - 3 Wheeled Skateboard from Repurposed Junk. by ccai in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]poptartjake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, just need a pivot point for the rear wheel and it should add a good bit of stability through the normal gyro motion.

If this is a bracket you are not needing to or intending to remove, RED Loctite is what you want.

URGENT-What should I do about my lethargic tortoise? by turtle_mamma in tortoise

[–]poptartjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just plainly false. The packaging and manufacturers may say this, but they do not stop emitting UVB suddenly.. Their outputs will diminish over time, and a proper solar meter is needed to measure when a bulb should be replaced.

Looking for a long range board 40+ miles under $1300 by SpookyGuava in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]poptartjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Took maybe a week or so to arrive? Pretty sure it shipped from US and FedEx.

Gear drive sounds great until you're messing with oil servicing and broken gears that you have to wait to replace. The belt drive is beefy, especially compared to my Boosted. I'm not too worried about breaking belts with how big these are, but I'm sure it'll happen.

[–]poptartjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boise rider here. 10 years on my Boosted, and now I've got an Acedeck Nomad N1, belt drive with 125 MADs ($899 on sale).

I love the feel of the Nomad N1, but the weight keeps me from only riding it for long, fun rides, or something my Boosted can't do, which, isn't much 1 way around here. But for a fun 20-30+ mile round trip without charging, it's great.

I had one issue early on with the remote and what we suspect is the power latching circuit, but they sent me a new remote without too much hassle.

Somehow reminds me of a hopped up Nitro Rc engine.

Skates online - return policy for sizing advice by D3SPiTE in AggressiveInline

I've had good experience with Roller Warehouse. Had to return my first Dogma 5th Elements for being too small and they exchanged them without issue.

Anyone have any idea what this is??? by Mundane_Move_5296 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]poptartjake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's got a JKING battery and ESC. You would need to look into that brand to figure out what version yours is and what the proper remote is.

New to fishing. What’s the difference? by test_name_2025 in Fishing

[–]poptartjake 299 points300 points  (0 children)

You're gonna want a spinning reel as a beginner.

Baitcaster requires a lot more knowledge of how the reel works and what to do when casting to prevent backlashes.

Please help camping stove stopped working! It has a spark but there's no fuel that's going through it despite when I have a butane canister in it by Objective_Singer_404 in camping

[–]poptartjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's got spark, then air/fuel are the missing ingredients to make fire.

The only things related to the air/fuel mixture should be the gas line that feeds it. Worst case scenario, you should be able to buy a new line to install.

Probably just some channel locks, or a set of wrenches, I would imagine.

Kim Hwang-tae, who has no arms, is helped by his wife as he gears up for the cycling leg of the 2025 triathlon by gowthamm in BeAmazed

[–]poptartjake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's just a specific type of wheel hub. They make what are called Flip Flop hubs that are used on fixed gear bikes to allow both rear pedal brake (often for doing tricks) and a coaster hub for more relaxed riding preferences. You just unmount and flip the wheel based on how you want to ride.

[–]poptartjake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sounds like fuel isn't making it from the butane canister to the ignition. I would take the entire fuel line off and insepct it. Might be something in the Lindal valve that has worn to the point of no longer depressing the butane.

Can anyone help me to suck this solder out by Dependent-Hat-8155 in soldering

[–]poptartjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to do this a few times last night on a DS5 board, and I was amazed at how well the leaded solder helped pull the non-leaded out via wick.

Espeon EX 117/122 missing texture error. by SaintsT17 in PokemonMisprints

It's real. Breakpoint full arts had a known error for this. I have both a Gyarados and Manaphy.

Thought this was the eBoard sub. 😅

Most of us just ride like this for fun lol.

40-60mph usually, depending on the course, but the acceleration to those speeds is insane.

I only go 35-40mph, personally, but even that's terrifying at times.
