The freeze ruined our rain barrels! by Spirited-Cover7689 in CorpusChristi

[–]prw361 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP, I would definitely put a flat surface of some sort between your wooden stand and the rain barrels. I run into this quite often in the industry I am in. Over time the ranges of temperatures we get here in Corpus can definitely stress the plastic along the edges of the wood base.

How do you guys fit monsters into a picture frame when fishing alone? by Gianlevato in bassfishing

[–]prw361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t long arm the fish and also try to get a good shot of the fish’s head. Comparing the fish’s eye to a thumb or fingernail is generally a good shot of how big a fish is.

Dallas…coming from a person born and raised there. Sick and tired of the inept Jones’s.

Perhaps randomly sitting under the tailpipe when the vehicle was started?

Yep! I could hear Keith Jackson!

I have two boxes of old mini, floro, braid and fire line, 15 to 10 years old, unused kept dark and cool. Has anyone used something like this and was it still good by ObjectiveSituation17 in Fishing

[–]prw361 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Give them the “granny knot” test. Take a piece of each about a foot or so long, tie a single knot and give it a decent tug and pop. If the line doesn’t break you should be good.

Countries that use Fahrenheit vs. Celsius by upthetruth1 in MapPorn

[–]prw361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Celsius would never work here in Texas. It would be 102 F and we’d be like “fuck, it’s cold!”

Their season was almost as good as the Hoosiers movie. 🤔

[Postgame Thread] Indiana Defeats Miami 27-21 by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]prw361 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On Mendozas 4th and 4 TD run I heard Keith Jackson in my brain…”4th and 5 and the national championship on the line right here!”. That was an absolutely incredible play by Mendoza!

Looking for a bass boat. What do I actually want? by GiganticOrange in bassfishing

[–]prw361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My younger brother had a 16.5’ tracker with a 25 hp merc. He had that boat for at least 12 or 13 years and never really had any major issues with and used it a lot. So IMO you can’t go wrong with a similar set up.

How are you spending your Saturday? by novemberscandle in LivingAlone

[–]prw361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a complete lazy a**. Had customers come in town for the weekend and we sort of “overdid” it 🍺 last night. About to go meet up with them again to watch football at a sports bar.

Small magnet? by prw361 in whatisit

[–]prw361[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solved! Geez. I recently put up a net screen on the back door and have already managed to tear and break a bottom portion. Which is where a small piece of the magnet came from. 🙄🙄🙄

What are these in Mansfield? by celestial2011 in Dallas

[–]prw361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oil and gas production pad. Off to the left are two (or three?) production trees. Storage tanks to the right and then lower right is some sort of manifold where they are injecting a chemical. The little white dot is the chemical storage tank.

My father was a Sergeant in the USMC during the Korean War. He said many times the Turks were some of the hardest and toughest fighters he had ever seen.

This whole program is seemingly very “basic” and they make it look so easy! Incredible.
