    Why do you fly fish?

    To catch fish, learn new fishing related stuff, enjoy nature, forget about all the other crap going on in our day to day lives, meet like minded people.

    Gear advice: Switch rod for beach fishing?

    Yellow UV cure

    Prop Change for Minn Kotas (BIG difference)

    I have a 36lb thrust motor guide electric. I undid the nut, slid off the old prop, slid on an APC 10x5, tightened up the nut, good to go. My top end speed went from 2.8/2.9 mph to 3.2mph. This equates to about 10% increase in top end speed. My only concern would be how it performs in weeds.

    Intermediate/clear camo lake lines?

    I got around the clear intermediate by using a cortland floater with an integrated 15 ft clear sink tip. This gets me past the damn coiling issue and still allows a slow presentation in shallow water with a clear line and flouro tippet of course. https://www.cortlandline.com/products/ghost-tip-15

    Intermediate/clear camo lake lines?

    I own 3 clear camo lines, rio, SA and airflo, they all coil and are horrible to fish with. My least favourite lines to fish with.

    NBA Playoffs 2023

    Biggest adjustment the dubs made was having 4 shooters on the floor instead of the 3 they had in game one when Green and Looney spent most of the game being passers. Time for James to retire.
