Department of Government Efficiency, it was always there. I believe in free markets, and maybe another way to look at this is Trump not picking winners or losers, but letting the market decide. It is certainly fiat brained, but they did launch world financial coin after all. I still think we are headed in the correct direction, even with the shitcoining.

I have a fear (phobia?) of things exploding in my face, when using a microwave, filling my cars tires with air, and now I realize air compressors.

I never would have thought that my first catch from the bayou would be a blue crab. Catch and release, but unfortunately he lost a claw, and I lost my lure two casts later.

Wizards of the Coast, owned by Hasbro, has been upsetting their player base with their upcoming One D&D. This started a year or so ago when they attemped to nullify the Open Gaming Licence (OGL), originally created by Wotc to be similar to the GPL. The direction Hasbro is taking D&D is towards digital and micro payments, and they are moving away from physical books and DIY dungeon masters. The quality of the physical books is also very poor with perfect binding (glued) instead of stitched, and the books often start falling apart after even moderate use. I am sure the new version will be fine, but players will be funneled into paywalls to play.

D&D 5e or something better like Old-School Essentials?

With a hook that size, this thing would most likely break if you were to hook a fish. They should have just made a hobo reel.

Completely agree. I also liked Garcia's colab with Crystal Method.

Love this EP, too bad it was all they ever released. I had this on vinyl before giving my collection to a friend.

Furiosa was good, if you liked the Mad Max movies.

One of the easiest rigs to get started with fishing is a nightcrawler beneath a bubble float. This rig helps to eliminate snags from rocks, limbs, and weeds on the bottom, and can catch a wide variety of fish species.

We have community fisheries here that are stocked with hatchery fish. They can be fun, but are often crowded. Many of the reservors around me have a day use fee and I don't like it either, but there are fewer people.

I want to catch a massive Gar for the trophy pic. But I can see how they would be annoying when you are targeting another species. When I was trying for my first Gar, I had trouble with blue crab always taking my bait.

TY I will start posting to an image hosting service instead of throwing images at the relays.

I hope you get out soon to go fishing, it is a very inexpensive hobby and provides hours of fun.

I am using primal on android. I had to download a photo editor to reduce the image size before it would upload.

I've been having trouble with image size, I'll get it sorted out eventually. Did the image post for you?

Gar fish can be hard to catch. They do not have lips for your hook to pierce, and their mouths are armored with teeth and bone. Gar will grab onto your bait and swim away before they swallow, so it is best to keep your bale open to allow your line to unwind. Once it seems the gar has swallowed its meal, close your bale and set the hook. Gar have been around since the Triassic period, over 240 million years. This is a Spotted Gar I caught in Louisiana in May.

It looks like I was wrong, angling is when you fish using a hook (from Old English angol, meaning "hook").

If you are using a hook you are!

After fiddling around for a bit, it looks like it was a 2-step process.
1 - link alby account to primal
2 - add alby address to profile

I wore out a pair of Chuck Taylor's in one day sk8ing when I was young.

I am working on it, I thought adding alby was enough. Working on a LN addy now.

2024-08-11 16:43:17

I just added my alby address, but I was meaning to lure in anglers (pun intended) if there was a nostr app for logging catches. I am not quite skilled enough to make something like this on my own, but I am more than interested to help build it!

I was camping with my nephew, and we also saw starlink satelites on both nights.

It would be sick to get zaps for posting catches.

If there was a nostr-based app where anglers could log their catches similar to the Fishbrain app that might pull some in. Fishbrain has a social aspect to it, but is mainly used to log:
- Photos of catch
- Species
- Body of water
- Time of day
- Weather data
- Length and Weight
- Tackle used

By the way, that looks like an awesome book! I will need to see if I can find a copy. Hope you make it out fishing soon. LMK if you need any help.

It doesnt look like there are many of us. I found your post by searching for "fishing" to see if there were any others here.

Thanks for the suggestion! I am a Linux Admin Devops guy by trade, I have an alby wallet but want to find out if I can use the new fedi app.

The weather was great, two days partially cloudy and no other campers in sight. The sky was so dark at night you can see the milky way.

I caught a nice Rainbow Trout at Flaming Gorge using a Berkley flicker crank bait I found on the shore.

If you plan to read while fishing, make sure you have a bell to clip on the top of your rod.

Angling is when you fish using a rod.
