What reel do you recommend with a Mach VI Eagle Claw fishing rod?

Im looking to fish mainly in lakes and catch whatever bites the hotdogs that I put on my hook (heard theyre good for catfish so will primarily be targeting them). My dad had a Mach VI Eagle Claw rod that I am planning to take the reel off of and put something new on. The rod is pretty big, definitely above 7 feet.

I heard the Daiwa Crossfire LT 2500 would be good, what do you guys think? Id like to be in the 35-60 dollar range but willing to consider other reels below $100.

How should I deck my Ruger Mark 4 out?

Looking to trick out my recently purchased ruger mark 4. Bought it for $300 during father's day, was able to get 20% off due to vet discount and father's day sale. I think I made out for pretty good with this version.

What upgrades should I do first? Im considering getting a sight and changing out the trigger as I hear the trigger could be better. Im also interested in a suppressor or silencer but not sure which one would be best. Are these things also pretty easy to install and change yourself, or do you guys recommend taking them in to a local shop to get changed right?

I'm 26m, I feel like I did the first 50k wrong

This is my personal investment account. I started my portfolio in early 2021 and was buying a variety of stocks, ETFs and Crypto. Ive held off on buying stocks/ETFs in my personal investment account as I want to focus on my RothIRA. But id like to continue adding to this at some point, but I feel like I could reallocate a lot of my investments and make them more concise. I think I have a lot of overlaps in the ETFs and might be playing it too risky.

I would like to use this money to buy a house with in the next 5-10 years, but I also dont have that goal set in stone. Id be interested in seeing how fast I can turn this into 100k if I reallocated and focused on the right stocks + added money monthly from my income.

Any ideas on how I should diversify? Should I sell crypto or any of my individual stocks? I currently have NVDA, OKLO, GOOGL, SNAP, MSFT, TSLA and UNH.

26m Should I sell stocks in my individual account to max out my Roth?

26m been investing since 2021. Portfolio has went up 40% since then, so I dont think im doing terrible, but I also think I need to rediversify my assets.

Just not sure if I should start maxing out my Roth ira every year by selling what I have in my personal account or try and see if I can max it with my income before the end of the year.

Update: For context, I make about 57k a year. I have a 403b retirement account through work that I contribute small amounts too, very irregular contributions. I do have another 401k account through work that I am required to contribute to, with the match its $900 a month (300 of my own and they do 600).

I have no debt except my car ($300 month) and basic utilities every month to survive. No rent payment. The goal of the taxable investments is to save for a big payment on a house one day, 5-10 years.

Grade or Sell Raw?

Is this a card I should try and sell immediately through a local vendor at 80% or should I try and grade it? This would be my first card ive graded so any insight on who to use would be appreciated.
