    What plants, weeds and/or trees do you hate and why?

    Himalayan blackberry root broke my back in the Seattle area... aggravated some long ago strain heaving til my body gave. Put me bedridden for more than week with longterm lingering frailties. Didnt understand what was happening below with those crazy root balls. They are so good at what they...

    Smoked Salmon Chowder

    I typically put 1 nice thick slice, diced. Just enough... after all bacon bits are the pixy dust of the culinary world.

    I'm think I've landed on: Waders. Cause I got em. nrs splash jacket - doesnt have bomb proof gasket but should be pretty good if all buttoned up. https://www.nrs.com/nrs-mens-riptide-splash-jacket/p2z1 kototat Portage to protect my booties. Fairly affordable, with laces and laces cover...

    SFR This 3 year old backs up a trailer better than you do...

    I spent what felt like a half hour backing into the deception pass launch... full of folks at weekend shrimp season... increasingly angry folks. Johnny law commented "wow... you sure put on a show..." then gave me a few tips. Did a little parking lot time after that. Sooo much harder than it...

    interesting... much more than resonance... "value engineering" strikes again. Another failure of similar means... aka...it takes a team and a few bad decisions... one of the worst...

    Just pondering the power of the engineer during that time... the respect they must have garnered. The enormous changes made to the landscape and society... nearly gods... infallible... almost...

    Good point @Mukman I belive in failing to advance as well, But... Theres a reason it's a lesson in every high school physics class regarding the basics of harmonic resonance. I assume they understood such things but were certain they had the answer. Despite the answer being contrary to...

    The Obligatory Pedal Kayak thread

    Scooped an outback from camano marine. They overestimated demand and are sitting on a bunch of 22 models for pretty good prices. Good folk too. Very pleasant experience... rarely happens in retail today. Props to them. Made a little scupper cart out of a crutch. Those suckers are heavy and...

    Competition breeds excellence

    I'm a process guy. Joy in the effort and the lessons. Compete against myself everytime... "what could I have done better?" is a nagging question. But the other day... buddy was lightin' it up and was feeling anxious for a bit... happy for him, frustrated with myself. I seek to understand the...

    Coho jigs

    I have similar things happen with the spin reel. The loop gets halfway around the top of the spool and I get hick ups in my cast. I figured it was too vigorous of a twitch and too fast of reel when I was a little slack... also when I get a little excited. The heavier swivel is a nice touch. Thx.

    Will you now post fishing content on Twitter?

    I dont think one comes without the other... fishing content wasnt banned anyhow. I liked it when editors and producers controlled which knuckleheads had voices. I dont think everybody should have a platform or deserves to or should be heard en masse. I know, not super popular, but duning...

    Will you now post fishing content on Twitter?

    Nope. Never into it. No FB either. Too many of those complainers and folks telling me what to do. Wish they'd just be quiet. Regardless of the slant.
