    Rod holder for boat

    On the sled: reels go in pouches, on the floor, with rod tips pointed out the back over the transom held by a foam rod holder. I used a 3 slot, might change to 6 slot. Foam rod holder is attached to a Scotty 367 fish-finder plate, with a small extension into a Scotty base.

    NBA Playoffs 2023

    Favorites keep dropping games … personally I like it when recent (< 3 yr) conference / league champions go down. Spread the success and keep things interesting.

    NBA Playoffs 2023

    It was something else to watch Harden just switch-switch-switch to get the defender he wanted. Boston will definitely have a response in game 2. Hoping Embiid gets back on the floor soon!

    Patagonia fishing and sightseeing recommendations

    Have traveled all over Patagonia … if interested in nature, the Araucaria forests are mind blowing. The Alerce forests are cool, too, but not quite the mental floss of the monkey puzzles. Best to check on recent status, as a decade of drought and fire has taken its toll in some areas.

    NBA Playoffs 2023

    I fully expect the East will win it all if key starters stay healthy, only wish it was my personal favorite 76ers instead of the Celtics or Bucks

    Grundens Waders?

    I wish Grunden’s luck. It is good to have choices. I remember when Cloudveil stuck their toe in the wader game, they had an excellent product, but couldn’t keep up with the cost of repairs and bailed. For me, I won’t be trying these Grunden’s unless they make the XL and bigger wader booties...

    LT Truck Tires

    These seem worth a look. I have been happy with 10 ply in a similar mild tread Bridgestone Revo, low noise and low rolling resistance, great in rain but awful in snow.

    A 10hp kicker and a river: What kind of boat?

    Drift boat (metal or glass) with motor is incredibly versatile. I haven’t been able to convince myself to do it (bought a sled instead) but it is the fishing craft of choice of most folks that I know.

    When to not use a shooting head line

    With shooting heads in moving water, you don’t so much “mend” as you “steer” the line. It is very effective when fishing a far seam across conflicting currents

    NFR Battery powered chainsaw(s)?

    I’ve had the Ego for 5 or 6 years, use it to limb trees, buck the occasional 14-20” tree, and carry when I’m on day trips deep in the woods. Just gave my perfectly good gas Stihl to a friend, haven’t used it in years.

    NFR EV's?

    We’ve had a Kia Niro EV 3+ years. I’m 6’5” 250 lbs and fit well. Comes with rails for roof racks. Zippy and not weird. We charge almost entirely at home from a standard outlet and get 240 miles of verified range. It is my spouse’s car but I use it whenever possible to save on fuel costs...

    Broodstock hatcheries/ epigenetics

    If the question is practical aspects of running hatcheries in a wild broodstock steelhead hatchery program, there are a lot of examples in Oregon to draw upon. If the question is how these programs (vs traditional hatcheries) affect wild fish, good luck. ODFW was hard pushed by...
