    metal roofs

    of all the threads on this forum... I never once thought the T-Rex himself, big JT would show up. I'll have 'em put on 7 or 8 layers for a BIG THICK ROOF.

    metal roofs

    great info folks. I'm probably going to look at a light colored fiberglass roof and some of the other suggestions for keeping my attic cool.

    did you hear the way that Gronk just said oblique, "Oooh-bull-leek". Sounds like Obi-Wan's brother or something. I think that's worth 2 drinks.

    metal roofs

    Need a roof this year. I'm considering a metal roof. One of the things about metal that would help offset the cost is it's ability to reflect UVs rather than absorb like an asphalt roof. My unfinished attic space and bonus room over the garage get hotter than blazes in summer. I have to run a...

    The Trouble with Fly Casting

    Started a blog last winter, had big plans to populate it chalk full of mostly worthless musings but dark beer, jig-saw puzzles, general laziness and a few fishing trips got in the way. Here's the first entry https://3fsflyfishing.com/the-trouble-with-fly-casting/

    The 2025 NFL Season Discussion

    Colinsworth was diss'ing Herbert pretty bad, saying things like "he's got enough time, it isn't the o-line's fault, etc". I don't completely disagree. He also seemed to be sailing a lot of balls; the game looked like it might have been too big for him. Hard to say, no QB thrives under pass rush...

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    I'm not sure that transferring banana 'stuff' to the bait is necessary for Banana Induced Fishing Failure (BIFF) to occur. Let's not count out quantum entanglement. Even worse, as I understand it, quantum entanglement has no locality restrictions. Those particles can flip each other off across...

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    Banana Induced Fishing Failure (BIFF) is real. BIFF effects fisherman everyday and it stinks!

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    I sort of fell off the Cook bandwagon a while ago, but this video is a gem. Thanks for digging it up!

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    The negative cases are definitely interesting and I've thought about them. The thing is, catching fish while in the presence of a banana isn't proof positive that they don't have an effect. Other factors (relative abundance of fishing, stellar conditions, etc.) might have outweighed the drag...

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    My googling is not so good today, but I seem to remember a video of George Cook fishing with a spey rod while wearing bananas hanging on his belt, just to make it fair for the fish.

    The first rule of the banana curse it that we don't talk about the banana curse!

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    Ya, I'm inclined to believe it. I understand there's a chasm between correlation and causation. But causation isn't nothing. Humans stopped eating poisonous things long before they understood biology.

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    The background is that I'm looking for some way to explain my lack-luster results fishing lately. I know better than to actually bring a banana on a fishing trip. I had to walk home from the boat launch years ago when my buddy saw me munching on one before we launched. I'm wondering just how...
