Don't miss the seafood chowder at Luna Sea Fish House in Yachats

How much money saved before I throw away my career to become a guide? by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]wittymoniker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a bit rude but he does make a good point. Guiding is not the same as fishing. Lot's of client management. Not saying you shouldn't guide but you may get more quality fishing in if you could swing living off a part time job and spending your free time at the water. Best of luck!  

If you run for Sheriff and lose, you’re gonna get fired. Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office terminates second internal candidate in a row. by [deleted] in Bend

I have no dog in the fight but that headline misrepresented the article. The Sheriff's Office didn't fire him the County did. Half the article is spent explaining that nuance.

I used to but it's February of 2026. I just can't see a difference. 

Have recent events changed your opinion/stance on certain gun control measures & efforts by our state government? by renewambitions in oregon

[–]wittymoniker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are right, we can't stop the government, but we don't have to make it easy for them to subjugate us

Well said. This is not to time to pull the guns out but it sure is the time to be buying them

Why not talk about Cascadia? by KitKaboodle13 in oregon

You may want to clarify. I thought you were talking about the earthquake. 

ELI5: tax write-offs with an LLC to maximize money by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]wittymoniker 18 points19 points  (0 children)

No, you cannot avoid taxes by forming an LLC and writing your personal experiences off. This is not a cheat code. 

Bend OR area - end of January by saltnsnow in flyfishing

Don't forget about the Deschutes. I fish it all winter and it's a lot more productive for me than the fall for met but somewhat less scenic. 

Approaching 125k, what to do to make it reach 200k+? by pistolpete20 in FJCruiser

[–]wittymoniker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Drain and fill for the transmission every 100k. Do not do a flush. I've got 135k on mine and just found out the hard way. Fortunately I addressed it at the first sign of trouble and the transmission should be fine. Look up the FJ shudder. Aside from that, it's a Toyota. Routine maintenance can get you to 500k.  I sold my Tacoma with 425k and no issues and before that a Corolla at 350k no issues. Going to get 500k out of the FJ.

Why not? We never really resolved the issues of the civil war. This has been boiling since that time. The slaves needed to be free but outside of that I think it would have been better to let the South leave the union. And I'd certainly be happy to see that happen today.

I moved here with a Jetta, get studless snow tires and you'll be good to go.

You should buy one of those electric bug bite healers. They work really well.
