What's the price comparison for 50 ah lithium versus 100 ah lead? Same range, and especially if you only need it occasionally, you don't need as many as you think. Plus lithium last twice as long, so you lose money buying lead batteries now. Nobody ever goes back to lead after running lithium.

Save yourself so much effort while making everything easier: go lithium for the battery. Will weigh half as much, and have twice the usable capacity. You can probably use a 50-60 amp hr battery and go just as far, or further.

Not true actually, at least for most of the tires dumped. Maybe some of the very oldest ones don't have the same tire chemicals. The lack of extensive marine growth, colonization, etc does suggest that plenty of nasties do exist in them.

I have heard of it just sort of a litter removal effort mostly. Some of the shallow ones are breaking apart in storms and moving around. That plus some recognition that they didn't turn out to be any amazing habitat.

Rhubarb. Grows like a champ in the PNW. Horseradish, if you got any Eastern European in you. My asparagus and currants have not been doing much. I also planted native huckleberries. Slow growing, i.put them in the shade so they grow tall, but it keeps them from being sweet. Got 4 kinds...

Just need to paint a stripe on your driveway. Find the exact perfect line into the garage with whatever tire is on the inside of the curve, and stripe it. Then you just have to put your tire on the stripe and keep it there.

I had some sort of old Mitchell reel on mine, one of the 1970s era vintage oval shaped ones. My grandfather's before he handed it off. Next time I am back east I might go search for it in the fishing gear closet.

I owned that fishing rod, and there may be old pictures of me fishing it. Never with the reel above the rod though, I was taught well early on. Yellow glass with the red wraps.

On a good day, I will totally find a way to rope a nice tuna on the eagle claw setup, no doubt.

And for the record, speaking of my early fishing career, if I had a dollar for every truck trout who gulped my worm draped eagle claw snelled bait holder hook bought at Kmart out of sight and directly down to their ass, I could buy a pretty sweet tuna fishing fly rod setup.

I needed a spare rod after my shitty Rio line broke on a fish (possible I stepped on it and damaged it, possible it was just Rio) and Jason kindly offered his spare rod.. but I literally didn't believe you at all when you said you had a perfection loop on your leader. I took me a bit to...

Salmo g has a "legend" next to his user name. Not accidental. Pay attention.

Albula speaks much wisdom. It does depend on where you go. I strongly recommend a smooth working large arbor reel, including spending some real money if you have to, if you are chasing larger bones. I spent 6 months on Hawaii going once a week or so, and made the mistake of taking my junkier...

Truth.

Maybe not exactly what you seek, but I have a 10' Koffler whitewater pram that I am lightly trying to sell. It's in pretty nice condition.

Very jealous.. nice one! I was considering going, but the recent dry cold conditions kept me home..

Me too.. only a puny 12 lber, but I caught it on New years eve while trying for an early steelhead! I also saw a big coho male, moderately colored up but not rotting or struggling yet, holding down some spawning terrain on Valentine's day there one year. So awesome to see those big ones, I...

Love the New England patterns. My grandfather had both those patterns in tandem for Landlocked salmon trolling, and I tied them both on smaller single hooks for spring river landlocks for the smelt spawn. BG remains a favorite, I just don't have the colors for the Supervisor.

Or, being a fly tier, you tie roughly the same feathers, or better, on your replacement single hook and snip off the stock trebles for replacement. My kids rock some pretty sweet rooster tails when we troll for truck trout.

I greatly dislike privatization of public lands and losing access. Sometimes rural woods problems require rural woods solutions.
