    Nick Hammer from this site does floors i believe.

    Hung up the toolbelt in December. Was hoping to do some sidework here and there but my knees and back haven’t felt this good in 20 years…

    I am/was 2nd generation floor guy, my dad still operates and has some great guys on his team.

    Have an okuma 86 that is fantastic, it does get some fatigue tho. I do feel I connect more with it having such a soft tip it allows the fish to take a spinner more.

    Gamechanger is the flippin switch for the reel. Must have afaic.

    Majority of folks don’t need that capacity.

    Decent amount of folks like the security during winter a truck gives them and their family.

    And a small portion out of all that likes the flash. Small percentage, but multiplied to a large population gives us what it is.

    Any such truck not driving in states that see a snowy winter has a ding-a-ling equivalent to a cat.

    Some metro lakes i do ok on weedlines for crappies, usually punching holes for sunnies tho. Best was on Harriet during a snow storm, dang near had my limit of crappies and eyes that night, some kids were pulling their buddy on a snowboard behind em on the parkway when I left at night.

    We fished the basin up nort this weekend, Saturday pulled 7 limits of craps.

    Cheap jersey gloves, bring a few pairs to swap out. I’ve bought alot of gloves trying to find the right ones.

    Wool is second but hooks always tend to find em.

    So what makes a beaver a nuisance? Loud music? Standing outside a bar or loitering?

    Those beavers outside a bar chain smoking camel lights on their 4th long Island with at least 4 piercings in one ear should definitely not be eaten.

    This is just a general observation on the folks who are absolutely he//bent on defending everything medical nowadays.

    Do they like just walk down any normal city street nowadays, do they go out in public really anywhere around any of us in which and they are not seeing the devastating affects of health issues. Do they not have friends and family that have a myriad of diseases and conditions that just weren’t around much at all just a handful of decades ago, or have their kids attend schools w kids and their teachers that are trying to navigate the add/adhd/spectrum….and then tell themselves ya know what, yeah, America is heading in the right direction, we’re doing okay, nothing to see here folks let’s move on to next topic.

    It’s mind boggling for me that anyone wouldn’t dig even just a lil bit into the non main stream news outlets just to see what’s possibly out there, bc the mainstream is what got us to this sh!tshow in the first place….just my 2 cents.

    Professional sports is entertainment, afaic players are just employees doing their jobs. The NFL has grown substantially over the last couple decades, and yet the old timers r biatching about the things that have kept it up to date

    Reminds me of all the old school fishing resorts that failed to update but end up biatching about something else that was their own failure. Oh well, die on that honorable hill lol

    One summer of hard work will be plenty for the young lad to say F that and go back to school in the fall. Unless somethings wrong w em like the rest of us nail pushers lol

    I’ve hired several smart kids in this scenario, they go back to school shortly after doing manual labor, is what it is. Ymmv

    Has nothing to imply with your son whatsoever, but it’s a funny story I took on a kiddo 15yrs ago, he’s probably a clinical psychologist now making double of what I do, but a job sup came up to me and said ur guy just destroyed a freshly enameled bench, fellas first week on the job and he was tasked to simply put up dust barriers w .3mil poly, f’er was cutting it right on the bench, I said wtf dude, it’s ok he said he put down a barrier, it was a hunk of red rosen smfh.

    Folks would be quite surprised the amount of fresh produce that’s given to us in stores that are grown hydroponically. We’ve been eating pellets for a very long time…

    My cousin majored in hydro, very interesting systems. Its a very cool cycle, and I appreciate them trying to make this world more sustainable, but my same concern as mentioned above, in the end isn’t the whole system still just being fueled by pellets?

    Rough math has 20000 murders per year in the USA, ~54 per day.

    Haven’t heard any others making front line national news.

    Like it or not, this type of scenario does do something. I also read far too much spy fiction and espinoge crap to add anything further.

    Wish the gas station off 394 and Penn still sold minnows, spendy but they were convenient for me.

    They redid the store several years ago and each year they say next year for getting the minnows going.

    no, the only thing absurd is HOA’s.

    I agree, but you would know that buying your house, and if you disagreed, why would you even sign up?

    Anyone can stock whatever they want in there but if the forage isn’t there what would it matter?

    In your fellas opinion is the lakes forage base currently able to handle more fish in the system?

    This guy willingly bought into a community with HOA rules, then wants to biatch when he breaks the rules.

    That is the only thing absurd here.

    As a single fella who’s taken quite a few dates to quite a few restaurants around town last few years can’t say I’ve ever been disappointed. FICA, I’m not a picky eater and enjoy most everything that’s put in front of me. Ymmv

    Since I’m Northside, northloop always is good. Red rabbit, freehouse, drinks up top at the huey, bunkers for lunch, smack shack, all good stuff. Birdhouse in my hometown robbinsdale, heck even steveos throws out good food. Brick and bourbon, sunshine factory, earl Giles, Stanley’s, Victor’s 1959 has the best rice and beans!

    I stay away from big chains, tgi Fridays used to be awesome, won’t go there anymore, Applebee’s and the sort don’t see me unless it’s for a hockey safety meeting.

    Word, only mentioned that because he was just hitting this issue within the last week.

    Saw him dunk a bird in tallow recently, that’s about it. To be fair, he’s been talking about oils for a long time toast

    But also to be fair, looking forward to him hitting many things this term. waytogo

    Sheldon, I’ve been looking at the same things in regards to these alternatives. Grass fed tallow seems to be key in keeping all the icky stuff out, unsure of how to source lard.

    Dirtywater, big rfk guy here, but wouldn’t know what he’s throwing on X. My gut tells me I can’t do peanut oil anymore, and some sensitivies to others, sure wish I could, bc peanut makes the best fried fish and is alot cheaper. Just trying alternatives that might have positive results.
