    Bought a Hi-Laker boat

    I don't know much about those boats but it looks like that'll clean up nicely

    Mola Mola are weird, but also interesting.

    Was on Nick’s boat for tuna once, and there were a bunch of small Mola hanging around the boat looking up at us. Seemed like something from a Miyazaki film.

    Never met him in person, but I always admired his humanity and passion.

    2026 Swap & Shop Official Thread

    I'm really looking forward to this, and have very little to contribute in the way of cooking. I can bring a two-burner and a cast iron griddle for it. I'm a decent sous chef, hell on dirty dishes, and would be happy to do some shopping as my contribution to the group.

    SFR Losing Interest

    I get it. Do what you want to do until you don’t want to do it anymore and then stop doing it. For me it’s as much a reason to get outside and be with friends as it is about the catching. As my catching shows

    Trolling Motor for Drifter

    holy cow that’s an $800 battery. A bit more than the $280 for the 100 aH weize. Which may not matter because they are out of stock.

    Trolling Motor for Drifter

    Haven’t yet but I’m still looking at the endura max with a 100 mah weize battery. I should probably just go ahead and pull the trigger

    The San Juan Worm

    As Matt said, burn or glue the ends. Otherwise it unravels and you're just left with a couple of strings tied to a hook

    Trolling Motor for Drifter

    I have a 14 ft drift boat and need to replace my old minn kota endura. What are we recommending for a basic electric trolling motor these days? I'm looking at the MK Endura Max 45 lb, and really like the on-board PWM to maximize battery life. I'm fine with a basic, hand steering motor and don't...

    That’s just it, the house always wins and taxes on casinos are largely taxes on visitors.
