    Fishing rocks! Here's a rod/reel/fish embedded in a Telecaster custom guitar body...

    To make it sound good you have to play it through a Fishman amp

    SFR Protect your fishing mojo. Sorry old friend, RIP.

    I’m sorry for your loss. I sometimes will bring a rookie hat along with the experienced hat a few times and get it some instruction from the experienced one. That way if disaster strikes or the wife forces it into retirement you’re not stuck starting from scratch. I think it also adds a little...

    Why in the world does WA still have paper-only fishing licenses?

    They had planned to implement it for this license year, but the vendor underperformed and they terminated the contract and it’s currently under litigation. And with current budget situations it might be delayed even longer since they do not have a vendor in place yet.

    NFR Hungarian Mushroom soup - recipe!

    That sounds delicious, I’ll have to try it. But I’ve never seen a boiling soup reduce liquid volume by 1/3 in ten minutes, that part has got to be wrong or it’s one heckuva boil.

    NFR Going Solar

    Looks nice. How does it work/interact with the existing building roof/shingles (impact on water resistance, and longevity) and with the roof structurally? If you get a roof leak can the panels be removed easily to access/fix?

    NFR Do you believe?

    Does anyone besides me think the news articles on this remind me of the first half of a Marvel movie or an apocalyptic alien invasion movie?

    SFR Poconos Pond Rehab

    A trash pump can handle pretty large solids. The pump I bought from Harbor Freight for $350 is semi-trash and says it can handle solids up to 3/4”. A full trash pump that can handle up to 1-1/4” solids was $900 so I figured I’d try this one first. At the very least it’ll pump the level down...

    SFR Poconos Pond Rehab

    Great topic. I have a spring fed pond at my place in Montana that has silted in with muck over the last hundred years and needs some rehab as well. I’ve decided to try to dredge it with a pump… will find out this summer how it works out. My idea is to float a gas—powered trash pump on a raft...

    NFR F-150 owners ?

    Had a 2017 Raptor and loved it, replaced it with an identical 2023 and it’s even better. Except at the moment it’s having a network issue impacting the ProPower 6500w inverter that the dealer is struggling to fix under warranty. The adaptive cruise and lane keeping is fantastic nowadays. My...

    How in the world did this boat/trailer disaster happen?

    Is this a documented fact or speculation? I hadn’t seen any details published and would like to share any lessons learned.

    Which trout would you prefer to eat

    Brookies are my favorite. Then browns, cutthroat and rainbow in descending order. With an exception for triploids from the upper Columbia, those are excellent fare. Otherwise I’ll stick to sockeye, springers and steelhead and leave the trout alone.
