NOTE FROM THE ADMINS I agree that folks are being pretty chill in this thread. And kudos to everyone for doing so. But it IS real close, if not over, the "no politics" line around here. "Grrrr GOVT!" threads like this are a real slippery slope that almost always lead away from where we want to...

Stay local? https://www.kimboliving.com/kimbo6 Only $28k of your hard earned pennies.

I assume that means: Perfect In The App?

I had totally forgotten about this thread and the "choose paper or digital" situation this year when I stopped by a local Ye Old Fishing Shoppe to get a license yesterday. I didn't have much time and the crabby lady at the WDFW computer was cursing about the digital version being awful. So I...

Cascadia Daily News posted some cool drone photos on their IG:

Heads up to anyone traveling up I-5 this weekend. A big mudslide just north of Lake Samish in Whatcom county has blocked all lanes of northbound traffic on I-5. Thus far, nobody is giving estimates on when it might be reopened. A lot of earth is sitting on top of the highway right now. There is...

As I'm looking at rain and gusty wind out my window and flood warnings on the river gauges... a warm sandy beach is sure tempting.

There are lots of places in the world where it's dark in the winter mornings regardless of DST or not. Kids somehow make it to school in Alaska, right? Norway? N. Ireland? I guess we'll see how it goes for our schoolkid neighbors to the north. But as you say, all gonna depend on your individual...

This won't cause any confusion at all. What could go wrong? Jokes aside, I'm jealous. I feel like even if we DID stop switching the clocks, WA will somehow end up getting bullied into permanent Standard Time by the other states somehow. Which would suck.

I guess I just like the 50ah lithium size as a really good middle ground, especially for smaller boats. Enough power to run the motor as much as most folks would ever need, but also still a compact size and light weight.

Lluz, I didn't realize you'd already got your setup together and ready to go. Awesome! I suppose I'll leave my previous post for future readers of the thread.

You could, if you wanted to, even get away with a smaller 50-60ah battery for that size motor. But if money or space isn't a blocker, always better to have more amp hours. I've run multiple different 50-55 lb motors with this 12v 50ah 11.5lb LiTime battery: Here's Minn Kota guidelines for...

Delightful indie pop/rock cover of 70's glam rock band Sweet's "Fox on the Run".

This stretch of nice weather has me thinking of a few boat projects I want to tackle before fishing gets rolling. Looking to add a step up to the back deck on the bass tracker. If I do it right, it'll mount one of those mini boat seats for smaller fishing passengers. Or perhaps I can find a...

These last few days of sun on the west side have been awesome. But I'm trying not to get too excited as I know the rain is about to return. Still, that vit D is encouraging.

Honestly, I have no use case for it these days, but I have always wanted one for some reason. Good deal for someone though. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1951866948738902/

That OT goal in the Women's gold medal game was a storybook way to win. Great move to deke the defender and then sneak the puck past the goalie.

To be fair, that is the way NHL/PWHL/NCAA hockey overtime works as well. NHL went to 3-on-3 for OT in 2015 or so.

Keep the Soul for daily/city driving. Buy a 2012-14 F150. Save the extra $25k for a rainy day.

[EDIT: This refers to a now deleted spammer who was posting on this thread] Not a lot of work for an obvious one like this, especially once someone uses the “report” function. Mostly just a few mouse clicks. The bigger challenge is blocking them before they register on the site while still...
