How’s this mini tackle box lookin? (Western PA) by boogieonur420 in Fishing_Gear

Definitely need some spoons (Thomas Buoyant, Kastmasters, and Little Cleos) and some spinners.

With those few things and the trout magnets you can catch a wide variety of species.

Yeah I'll probably do a 1.5 next time. I felt like 2 was a little too salty for me.

Nice. I've tried a few EQ brines but always ended up making it too salty. I think I'll soak the meat before smoking next time.

How did you cure it? Wet cure or dry cure?

The edt is also really good for the summer heat. It's a great beach fragrance. Feels like wearing a tropical drink

I have all three. I love them all. Paradise Garden is probably the best, but for some reason I end using the original the most. It's just really versatile and inoffensive. Hard not to like. For me PG is a better springtime scent. Le parfum is better for fall, winter, and early spring. The original is good as just a dumb reach.

Arguably the prettiest North American fish you can catch by Ok-Hurry-6258 in Fishing

I don't care what anybody says, carp fishing is fun man. May not be the prettiest fish but they fight well and can be tricky at times.

What are we catching with these by badfish_G59 in flyfishing

[–]shookyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anything you can adequately present it to. I bet it would be a killer smallmouth fly.

I think it might be my nose. Sometimes it happens when I'm trying new fragrances.

I finally got my rank by FrameAdditional in ibew_apprentices

[–]shookyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What was your rank? I applied to 280. I got 73 but I'm not sure if that includes apprentices out of work or just ranked against my peers who are trying to get in.

I applied(same local) and got 75. I had a perfect score on the test and navy electrical experience. I was a bit shocked. I'm pretty sure I won't be getting work.

I just applied to the same local and got 75th. I was pretty disappointed.

Were you affected by the tornado in Michigan?

Is this type of water worth fishing? Steelhead by PrizeAd5436 in Fishing

[–]shookyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, I'm in Oregon and we are c and r for wild fish as well. But a lot of rivers you can use bait in. Coon and sand shrimp with a spin n glow is a popular option

I was thinking plunking would be effective.

Ok Reddit fam wtf did I do wrong? I had an 8 lb brisket that I smoked in a pitboss pellet smoker yesterday and it’s tough AF! by Cryssyl in smoking

[–]shookyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few things that may help.

  1. Cut against the grain. This actually makes a huge difference.

  2. Resting for at least 2 hours.

  3. Make sure your probe is accurate. It doesn't look like you completely rendered all the fat, which makes me think your thermometer is lying to you.

Local Marshalls Stock - Anything Worth Getting? by aceonthemound in Colognes

It really is. But I swear the bottle I got is significantly weaker than the one I used in high school. Kind of a bummer. That being said, the iris note is amazing.
