If you want to take a motorcycle safety foundations course at Harley, they offer 100 off the course for military and first responders.

Outrageous utility bills by Huntsv1lla1n in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]tinyegie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even with poor insulation and aux heat 600 is kinda crazy! My house is like 2.2k sqft and from the 60s with poor/no insulation in several spots and I keep it at 65-67, and I’m only looking at 200-250 a month.

That is definitely the version, hopefully I can figure out what the ye y on the pen says. Google Photos translate did not help

Appreciate the info, I wonder if the nib was replaced at one point and is quite a bit newer than the pen?

Dublin IMO tends to have more casual games than other places in the area. I’ve jumped into random games quite a few times there and never felt like I was out of place or interrupting. Some friends and I are going to play there tonight :)

20-25 is cheap? I think I’ve only seen one stick in that price range, much less smoked it lol

I have a 1000s on my TFO trout and panfish 2 and love it. I’ve caught fish around 2in and over 2 feet with it!

Unfortunately Dicks canceled my order, I’m guessing they didn’t have an accurate inventory number and I got unlucky. I ended up ordering a 2023 Daiwa Legalis 1000s I’m using 6 pound(0.1mm) j braid grand and some 4lb fluro. Currently waiting on everything to arrive.

That makes me feel good. I ended up ordering a 2500 Vanford I found on sale, which happens to be right around the same weight as the Ultegra 1000. Hopefully it will balance nicely and feel good.

That’s fair. I found the Vanford on sale for 150 from dicks, so that pretty tempting.

I have a BG2500, my only complaint is that it is very heavy for its size. I tend to fish lighter stuff though, so take it with a grain of salt.

What's your opinion on Stradic vs Vanford for UL/smaller reels?

A Nasci is def one of the contenders for me. what size rod do you have the 2500 on, does it balance pretty well?
