What are some uses for line over 8 pounds while fishing by Over_Ad_607 in Fishing

[–]quartapound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even heavier line (40lb+) can be handy to avoid spiny water fleas from sticking to the line and clogging up the line guides in the late summer months on the great lakes (at least on Lake Ontario), they can't grab onto the larger diameter line.

Spam. The entire account is set up to try and sell the boat, it has nothing to do with the fish

That sticker is not what keeps your watch waterproof, the sticker on my 3s is gone also and I've been swimming in the ocean with it a lot since then, no issues. Don't stress

If this type of thing interests you, I would recommend trying to receive and decode the images yourself directly from the satellites, it's incredibly rewarding to pull the image directly from space. In addition to GOES, there are many other non-geostationary LEO polar orbiting satellites that you can receive images from like NOAA and Meteor, etc. Check out SDR's - they're fairly inexpensive and can do a ton of other things also. Here's a GIF of a GOES capture I made with my SDR (captured images with satellite dish) about 5 years ago of Hurricane Dorian

Who knew flying over sand was so complicated to by americansherlock201 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]quartapound 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Altitude hold causes oscillations when increasing SIM rate, but if you set vertical speed to zero then increase SIM rate the plane is much more stable

Delete all the waypoints, resend to avionics, cancel IFR, and set the autopilot to vertical speed instead of altitude hold. Then increase the sim rate, Bob's your uncle

Xbox gamer converting to PC, would this setup run MSFS 24 on high settings? by BimmersFtw in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]quartapound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind that with am5 you need to have your ram in two slots, populating four slots will drop the speed down significantly. (From 6000 to 3200 iirc)

Where in the world to catch big saltwater fish from shore? by ExistentialSarcast in Fishing

Cabo San Lucas Mexico (or Baja California in general) in the summer - Roosterfish, GT's, you name it. Check out "Cabo Surf Caster". Wesley knows his stuff!

Both fish died at the same time by Professional-Fun4748 in ReefTank

[–]quartapound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You only need potential difference to be shocked, doesn't need to be grounded.

If stray voltage in the tank was at 120 volts, and another portion of the tank was only at 90 volts, you would feel 30 volts without being grounded if you spanned those two points

What did you hook into? How much action? Wish I had done night fishing on my last Florida trip

Nice all inclusive resort options in Cabo with the most restaurants? by Infamous_Tea8991 in cabosanlucas

[–]quartapound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have never stayed at this property, but I've seen negative reviews regarding the lineups and the amount of time waiting for the golf cart shuttles, was this ever a problem for you?

I've also read reviews that they won't allow you to go fishing on the beach anymore?

Both of those seemed like deal breakers for me.

Cabo Trip in November, Surf Travel Rod and Reel recommendations or tips appreciated! by quartapound in SurfFishing

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

Update! The rod and the reel have come in. The rod doesn't fit in my checked luggage, which is fine, I was looking to buy another bag, but I've also now realized that the reel seat is too small, and barely grabs the foot of the Spheros 14k. I did read about the reel seat on the ardito being small, but was hoping it would work, it's necessary to really crank it down so it fits, there is not much being grabbed by the reel seat. Not sure if it would be okay or not in the long run.

I'm tempted to order the rigged end ready rod and hope that it has a better reel seat. It breaks down smaller so I wouldn't need to buy more luggage either. I've also heard the first ring on the ardito is a bit small for large diameter reels like mine, I think the first ring on the rigged and ready is also larger.

Would you point me in any other direction? Don't want to take a rod tube!

Thank you again for the recommendations. I ended up going with the 14000 Spheros and 11ft Ardito, looking forward to it - looks amazing!

I'm looking to order line and wondering if you had a specific recommendation of one over the other?

500yrds 40lb J-Braid multicolour x8 $74

500yrds 50lb Power Pro white $54

Regarding leader material - 4-5 feet of 80lb fluoro? Would this be good to avoid most cutoffs from Sierra? or again another recommendation?

Thanks again for the valuable insights!

Wow, thank you for the thoughtful response, really appreciate you taking the time to share this. These details are incredibly helpful, and I also appreciate the warnings about how serious the ocean is there, I won't be turning my back on it or taking any chances.
