Reading through this, I now believe this is what got me last week hiking around a lake. They don't last as long as chiggers and the welts are smaller. I told my buddy that the chiggers must of had a hatch but this makes more sense. I thought I was in the clear as the brush I encountered was dry and I would not have gone in there if it was damp or after a rain..

Been slammed with work but I used one of your white fugitives on a spinner and had an absolute tank grab it then throw the hook. Caught one of his little buddies though..

I found this box floating there wasn’t any water in it, but everything was already kind of rusty. Are any of these good? I noticed there’s a countdown Rapala in here and a little floating rebel…. Might throw some hooks on these if it’s worth it ha ha,if not, they’ll just go on the wall of the man cave.

Guess I’m planting juice tomatos next year. My dad finishes concrete at 77 almost every day and likes it. Still sits up in a climber stand for 12hrs when it’s snowing and single digits waiting for the big one.

FW is 100% correct about certain ethnicities and tipping. I worked in the front of the house, many places before and during college, and this was so well known that the industry had adapted to calling them a “table of Canadians” to prevent any possible blow back from mentioning specific ethnicities. As in “aw man who gave me the table of Canadians?” I believe the tipping is the opposite of barbarism. It maintains a higher level of customer service because it’s commission based and people are incentivized to provide you the best service rather than just spending hours to get a paycheck on a job that they hate. That said, many wealthy Asians either don’t understand or don't believe in tipping culture. I tip almost any trade or service persons that I feel deserves it even if it’s not customary as restaurants, hospitality, drivers, fishing guides etc generally are … On a side note. Having been friends and coworkers with many ethnicities, in my experience “white” people can’t hold a candle to the distain harbored by Hispanics and Asians toward Africans and African Americans.. My parents had a couple from India and a couple from Bosnia move in on their street. They would fight so much we thought there would be a murder inevitably. Might have been a Muslim vs Hindu thing though. Who knows.

I’ve seen them a few times. I resent the permission-less intrusion into the natural starscape. I get that there are already airplanes and satellites that are visible, but these starlink things are pretty obnoxious. I’ve heard that they weren’t supposed to be visible, and that was part of the clearance that they received. Imagine every other nternet service provider, putting their own train of those things up there.

Which one is best to smash the barbs down after being imbedded in truck headliner and upholstery? Asking for friend. -
I brought some buddies to the stream with me last time and we absolutely had a blast fishing every spot out my kayaks. Kind of gave them my technique for jigs and Ned rig and bottom stuff because it’s such a sure thing and I wanted to make sure they had fun. Even though I’m certain I would have caught more smallies fishing the bottom, I decided to stick with the plopper/bait caster setup and just wait for the blow ups to happen. Sometimes I’ll do a the entire run even though it’s less productive, when they slam that thing aggressively, it really feeds my addiction haha. At times they catch me off guard and startle me, that’s the best.. Or when they smack it as soon as it hits the water 👍

If the bass aren’t biting I’ll try for them with a some kind of weightless white feathered streamer. They snap at it reflexively if you pull it past the side of their head. I would say that my hook finds purchase in that face about 2 of 10 strikes… Im not a fan of the slime so if I’m on land I usually pull the hook and let them do that slither back into the water on their own.. I’ve had a few dudes lately tell me that they are good eating.. I looked it up. It’s a thing.
