  1. This live camera video of underwater at the Deerfield Beach Pier came across my youtube the other day and its a great virtual aquarium. Lots of baitfish, lookdowns and snook. Here's what's going on topside

  3. Anyone remember riding this bitch at Six Flags way back when? https://www.dallasnews.com/news/2018/08/06/before-the-texas-giant-six-flags-had-performing-dolphins-and-a-super-slide/
  4. Spent 6 days over last weekend camping at Inks Lake State Park. Had a real nice site right on the lake with tons of space and large oak trees. Carried the boat and kayaks as usual and had a good time. Paddled back up into Devils waterhole a few times and watched the kids jump off the rocks. Caught a few bass but mostly just enjoyed being on the water. Lots of hydrilla and moss in the no wake area by the park but the access by our campsite had been used enough that it was pretty much sand bottom. We went down the road one morning to Longhorn Cavern and took the tour through cave which was a good break from the lake for a while. It had been about 13 or 14 years since the last time we had camped here and this trip reminded us we really need to get it into a better rotation of spots.
  5. Look on Amazon or EBay for a cheap knockoff ladder rack. Might be cheaper than you think and you won’t have to spend time mcgivering a solution with unistrut.
  6. Wasn’t the ixtoc oil spill down in Mexico responsible for a big portion of that early ‘80s beach tar balls that everyone remembers?
  7. This. Kinda surprised something like this hasn't showed up here before.
  8. Perma-shocker
  9. You realize you've been watching too many Ukraine war clips when you see this and wonder how come the drone hasn't dropped a grenade yet.
  10. Scroll down to the first video of one of 10 Tanker’s DC-10s dropping a load of retardant at danger close range. https://www.kbtx.com/2022/08/07/firefighters-battling-large-fire-south-lake-somerville-washington-county/
  11. Got a 100 acre fire 0% contained on the south side of Lake Somerville. We were out on the boat this afternoon in a cove right next to it on the lake when we noticed it kicking off. Already burnt a few houses but it looks like it will eventually burn into the lake.
  12. Lol, I fat fingered that an actually meant a Curado DC. Those are about $250 and I even think there's a new DC model that's closer to $200. Only have experience with the Curado version and you can get just about anyone casting well really quick with it. If you are still thinking spinning reel, change out the mono as a first step,. Make sure to wind on the new mono in the correct direction or it will definitely tangle like crazy. Best way is by removing the spool and using a winder so that it goes on like a conventional reel. If that doesn't work and you want to get him a new reel, I like the Stradic and Spheros in the 2500-4000 sizes.
  13. A Calcutta DC will just about eliminate backlashes, even for a novice. Life is too short to fish with an eggbeater.
  14. That's a whole lot of fuck around and find out at one time.
  15. Maybe not pig blood-soaked but I saw a couple of blurbs that they might have used the ginsu hellfire. It slices, it dices, it juliennes!
  16. Dude needs to take that wadded up mess and throw it in the trash as is and take up golf. The camera is on a selfie stick type think and the software automatically erases the stick as it records.
  17. Nice video. Could have been nicer if they would have actually shown at least one full presentation, hook and land all the way through instead of 5 sec music video style jump cuts.
  18. Hash browns too it seems.
  19. Sweet, some new vertical reefs would be great now that they've removed most of the rigs that used to be offshore Texas.
  20. Simple riff, carries the song all the way through ...
  21. His buddies don’t have a sack if they don’t call him pinky from this day on.
  22. Mrs. Jimmy Houston definitely ain’t no bitch. Took that like a champ.
  23. Is your throat length for that rifle that much longer that the COL?
  24. Yeah a leatherman or a set of klien side cutters would have taken care of that one. +1 on the small bolt cutters for offshore. Seems kinda stupid carrying them but better safe than sorry.
