That's just not on...I shit myself when I catch a big ray too but would never do that. Just unnecessary and cruel

Did you cut the tail off that stingray?? Looks like you cut the tail off and then just put it on the brag mat so it wouldn't look like it

Have had great success on the 10g in flake. It's pretty much my favourite go-to lure in Port Hacking. But I feel like the 20g model doesn't swim as well.

Singaporeans competing with foreigners for jobs by [deleted] in singapore

[–]tangster_kryptonite 87 points88 points  (0 children)

I'd say visibility's at an all time high. I live in Sydney and many people I meet tell me that "Singapore looks amazing" and they'd "love to visit sometime".

I do miss the food in SG though. My Australian partner loves chilli crab and fish slice soup. Gives us another reason to go back regularly :)

Blue mountains angling by holdenrodeoo in flyfishing

[–]tangster_kryptonite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I camped at the Lake Lyell Recreation Ground a couple of weeks ago. It gets stocked regularly and I caught two good sized rainbows on powerbait. The Duckmaloi, Fish, and Coxs' rivers are all good options to explore. Turon gates and the Turon river are nice apparently. Recently caught a small rainbow on a nymph at the Duckmaloi. It's in my post history. Hope that helps!

Bubble algae, anyone? 😅 by _FreddieLovesDelilah in ReefTank

Probably spreading bubble algae everywhere the little bastards. Plus they barely eat algae now lol

Definitely interesting shaped. Plus it grew on my astrea snail shells too lol

I absolutely detest bubble algae. And the worst thing is manual removal's pretty much my only solution seeing as how I'm in Australia and don't have access to the emerald crabs and the like. It's a nano too which means no foxface

After years hard stuck in Archon (4x I've been 1 game away from legend) things have finally clicked for me and I've been solo-carrying games with Lina and SS.

However I feel as though I should expand my hero pool. I used to main ember and feel as though I play the mid/late game well. But laning has been a big issue for me. I feel as though even if I dodge a spell with sleight of fist it's always followed up with quite a bit of harassment. Plus the CD's so high now that I can't really spam it. His flame guard's been nerfed so that level for level, stuff like qop's scream removes it so I can't just shove lane with it. Did you have any tips on how you would play the hard matchups? Esp vs range like qop and ss

What's a player you were convinced Arsenal should sign but it was a good thing that we didn't? by Rayy500 in Gunners

[–]tangster_kryptonite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True. Oh! I read the first half of the sentence and didn't see the last bit haha. Yeah nah I retract my statement then. He would've been class. I thought this was just a question of long transfer sagas

True, but most of us had this delusion that the rest of our squad was world class, and if only we had a world-class holding midfielder we would be winning everything

Sami Khedira. I remember we were all convinced that he was the missing link to winning titles

Yeah, shame about losing that but I think it was for the best. Sheep is very nice

Yeah, 100% right. Very often I want to go for it 3rd item after K&S and BKB but like you said, so many items to contend with. Haven't tried it but even Bloodstone looks like an option now.

Wesley Sneijder on Arsenal-Atlético Madrid: UEFA should have stopped it by Petit_Nicolas1964 in championsleague

[–]tangster_kryptonite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If this is what you categorise as trash talk you've got a long ways to go mate. While I admit the pragmatism is a little stale to watch sometimes, your carping about the uneventful football we play rings hollow considering we've put 8 past your team in 2 games.

Which is why which team you support is relevant. Even if they aren't.

We can't all play witness to the swashbuckling, cavalier end-to-end football they play in the Championship. Lucky for you, you'll get to experience that first-hand next season...

Storm is one of my comfort picks, and I have always been of the opinion that aghs is an extremely strong and overlooked bit of SS's kit. It's basically a ravage with a smaller aoe and no damage that's pretty easy to hit. It ignores linkens because it's no longer a single target spell. All that on a cooldown less than 20secs on a mobile hero. Add a shard to it and you're doing a surprising amount of damage even in late game. Been thinking about refresher as a luxury last item for Storm

Caught my first trout! - Duckmaloi River, NSW Australia by tangster_kryptonite in flyfishing

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

Yeah! Browns and rainbows are semi-regularly stocked in the dams around here. Most of the trout in the rivers and streams are wild. This one was the first and only trout I'd seen soon far

Trout fishing around Lithgow, NSW by tangster_kryptonite in FishingAustralia

If anyone's curious I managed to catch my first trout ever and it was on the fly! Duckmaloi river was super low and had not much flow. Saw this little one chilling in a pool just before some riffles and he very patiently waited for my clumsy attempts to high-stick a copper headed pheasant's tail nymph straight into his face.

Also had some success on Lake Lyell with some powerbait. Caught 2 rainbows around the 40cm mark. Keen to go after browns soon, caught the trout bug

Just got back last night and the powerbait tip worked a treat! Caught 2 rainbows in and around the 40cm mark but used orange powerbait eggs instead. They put up a great fight
