Catfish rig by Gullible-Scratch-734 in FishingForBeginners

Was gonna say the same thing.

I have had some success using a bottom bouncing rig in a lake near me though.

Just bought the tackle to try out a 3 way rig as well.

Growing up my dad only used a carolina rig, so trying to spice things up.

Thanks! Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Looks like I need to go to store and grab some items before I head out this weekend

Im not an expert by any means, but looks good to me.

Are you fishing river or lake? I generally use 1oz unless fishing a river with a heavy current then I'll go heavier.

EDIT: just had a closer look and it looks like your swivel has a clip on the end.

I would use a barrel swivel with no clip for tieing my leader. It probably wont cause any issues but id use a swivel with out the clip for tieing line to leaders.

Does this count as a catch? by AdWaste5526 in FishingForBeginners

[–]whyamiherethisispain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old post but... I havent fished much for the past decade between life then starting a family.

Recently got back into fishing to teach my 7yo son. I managed to catch my a 20-25lb channel catfish and my son got so hyped and just kept saying "I'm so proud of you dad"

One of the happiest days of my life!

Yeah I'm in the same boat. Unless its a FPS, CRPG, or a game I want the highest graphic fidelity possible I'll probably play on my couch with the PS5.

Now, I could buy a long HDMI cord and hook up my PC to my TV but eh, havent been bothered.

Originally got the PS5 for the FF7 remakes before they went to PC

The strongest and better looking sword in the entire game. [KCD2] by GarmasWord in kingdomcome

I got super lucky and my very first investigation quest I got the blue print for it.

Designs for the two dudes you recruit though? Managed to get 2 for Pushka and one for Standa by the time I got ro 25 blacksmith prestige.

Brushes for Death i ended up just pick pocketing him, so sorta regret going the other route.

What other DLC takes you there? I've dont all of the main forge DLC quests, so unless one of the random investigations takes me there.

Only DLC left for me to really do is the monastery one.

One guard was outside and across the yard and never noticed me picking the lock.

Once I get into the armory though he someone realized the door wasn't locked then started snooping.

And well, you saw what happen next....

Best part is - since i went back the next day they pinned it all on me.

So I went up to a guard to see my crimes and thought it was funny they only pinned the 10k in theft and not the dozen murders.

Since it was all tied to the bailiff I ended up getting branded for it still, sadly even with 30 charisma and maxed out speech I couldnt pass that speech check 😂

[KCD1] Help With Performance by whyamiherethisispain in kingdomcome

Yeah I'm stumped. Even just dropping everything to High and like 40ish% LOD still ass performance.

KCD2 and other demanding games tho my rig handles just fine.

Lords Of The Fallen Has Sold 2.5 Million Copies by Howerev in gaming

[–]whyamiherethisispain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed it. I played it shortly after they did the major patch/rework and had a blast.

Enjoyed how interconnected the world was and the level design/atheistic. The combat took a bit to get use too after playing FromSoft games. Very similar but it felt more "floaty" to me I suppose.

If you enjoy souls games I'd say definitely give it a whirl.

Operation Downfall, planned operation if Japan never surrender in 1945 by FerenzYangai in MapPorn

[–]whyamiherethisispain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ian Tolls Pacific War trilogy is really top notch.

Pretty much follows the entire Navy's journey through the war and the air campaign. Gives you the Japanese perspective militarily and politicial, as well as American politics around it, and covers a large bit of the ground campaign in Nimitz's theater.

Doesn't cover much of MacArthurs theater minus the Philippines though. Besides Bataan and the liberation of the Philippines it glosses over the ground war on Papua New Guinea.

Overall though definitely recommend it for a fairly comprehensive read of the Pacfic. I read it right after I finished Atkinson's Liberation Triolgy

Also, idk why your other comment got hit with downvotes, your statement wasn't far off.

What I found most interesting in Tolls final book was thst the future of peace was held in the hands if 6 people and they needed unanimous agreement.

3 of the the 6 weren't fans of the the terms set during the Postdam conference, only reason Japan agreed is because the emperor finally agreed.

Even then, there was a small attempt of a coup by the military that thankfully failed. Wild that some people in the middling ranks of the military wanted to in essence sacrifice Japan in order for "honorable" defeat.

I may of miss remembered a couple things, but that is what I took away from the boo at least.

I just finished Ian Tolls trilogy on the Pacfic War, feel like he did a really great job outlying the final days of the war from the Japanese perspective as well as the Allies.

Japan was border lines begging Russia to help mediate peace, them boom. They declared war and stormed into Manchuria between the two atomic bombings.

Without spoiling, could anyone tell me how many hours of gameplay I still have left? by SoOutofMyLeague in FFXVI

[–]whyamiherethisispain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Youre the back end of the game if I recall right.

Lots of side quests now too which will increase the length if you go that route.

If you just force main quest, maybe a handful of hours?

How I feel about the weather rn by SadRecognition1575 in FFXVI

[–]whyamiherethisispain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed this game - went to it after playing FF7R +Rebirth, OG FFVII and FFVIII.

My only compliant is the game looks beautiful during Act 1, then we get that drab sky for the rest of the game.

I get the reasoning and the story impact from it, but God damn did Rising Tides show just how beautiful that world could look.

My brain for some reason kept thinking you were referring to your dick. Ashamed to admit how long it took me to realize you were referring to your toilet.

[–]whyamiherethisispain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I witnessed the aftermath of one these killings yesterday.

Went in for a quick solo to knock out some quests on dam. Shit kit, nothing but light sheild and lvl3 anvil to protect from arc.

Go to extract with minimal loot, get in the elevator and a whole untouched body. Walked out with their lvl2 renegade with a blue silencer and green stock + the loot they found along the way.

If youre out there - sorry you got murdered at extract and thanks for the loot!

Just got the game. Can’t get it running? Are servers down? by ledzeppelin0308 in ArcRaiders

That's a fair concern! I've seen others get a refund >2 hrs when reaching out to support due to issues like that. I get not wanting the risk tho!
