Spot Etiquette

This has happened to me on my last two trips now. I’ll be fishing a small spot, and a someone will show up and set up 10 feet or less from me. Today was a dad and his 15 year old son. I am not kidding, these people were LITERALLY casting over my shoulder lmao. I was dumbfounded and furious, so after a small argument I just left being the bigger person. I’m all for getting kids out fishing and enjoying the outdoors, but if someone is already fishing a small area, give them some space. There’s plenty of places to fish without crowding the one person already there in a very clearly non shareable location. Go somewhere else or come back another time. I have never in my life tried to crowd someone else's spot.

A little common courtesy goes a long way but it has seemingly been lost. This has happened a lot this summer and it is actually starting to piss me off lol.

Yoxuri lures

I'm not a beginner by any means, been fishing over 20 years. To a seasoned angler these are probanly no secret. Been catching A LOT of fish with these in every size they come in. Yozuri Pins Minnows, absolutely fantastic. Work it along the shoreline or weedbeds, lily pads...You can do a straight retrieve or I usually fish it like a jerkbait. These bad boys catch them. Trout, bass, panfish. They all love them. Can pick these up for 6 or 7 dollars a piece at Walmart. Anyways just wanted to share with someone who may be struggling.

Oru Folding kayak

anybody have any experience with the Oru folding kayaks? Or a similar brand? I have a nice new car and I am not willing to do roof racks on this one like my last. I mainly just do pond fishing and some calm rivers, are these worth the price point they are at?

Wasp ID

Is this a sand wasp? I see much bigger Cicada killers sharing the same area in my work area. One of these stung me today as I was mowing the lawn. There are hundreds of these holes and they all fly around me. First time I've gotten stung.

Some asshole hit me and left

Went for a hike today and someone hit my new car while I was gone. Obviously they weren't decent oerson and they didn't say anything. I'm not asking for a price, but how bad is it? I'm concerned it is on the crease of the panel. I'm waiting to hear and see if the place has cameras as it was a visitor center parking lot. Yesterday was my birthday and tbis makes me sad lmao

My first ever trout

My first ever trout caught from a little rocky river. I believe it is a native brookie. Little guy choked a 2 inch minnow smelt. I forgot my hooks in the car like a dummy and this one was too big. I was lucky to catch it, had another one about twice the size but lost it. Next time right sized hooks and I think ill have myself a day of this. Was quite fun

I'm an idiot

I usually have auto pay setup and I got a new card after fraud and I forgot to put my new card in. My car payment was due on the 6th, I scheduled the payment for Monday the 22nd as it was next day I could schedule it due to tomorrow being a holiday and then the weekend. I feel like I am going to throw up from anxiety lol. What can I expect if anything, I want to call but I'm not sure they will be open tomorrow due to the holiday. This has never happened to me before 🤮😒

A very rare sighting in my state

Was out for a hike in Eastern Massachusetts and I almost stepped on this Timber Rattlesnake. A critically endangered species in this state. Estimated to be less than 2 or 300 across the whole state and an even rarer sighting where I found it. They are typically found in the western half of the state where it tends to be more mountainous. It was very well camouflaged on the path and I didn't even see it, I caught it moving out of peripheral vision and it started rattling at me. The type of situation where people get bit 😅 Thankfully it was nice to me and went on it's way

Attempting to look less emotionally unavailable lol

Last time I posted here everyone told me to smile more, so I'm trying to take the advice lol. Do I look more approachable? Still working on putting on some weight, but besides that is there anything that I can do to help myself? Should I grow my hair a little more or does the short hair suit me?

u/NotMyRealAccount2226 — 5 months ago

Been striking out lately in the dating game. I know I need to smile more but is there anything that sticks out that I cam improve on? I'm in the process of putting on some weight as well, my frame has been an issue in the past

Was friends with a girl for a few years, really liked her. Vibed super well together, same interests. Told her I liked her as more than friends yesterday and wouldn't you know it. She doesn't feel the same. So I don't get the girl and I ruined the friendship. Here's an Italian sub to drown my sorrows. I haven't felt this shitty in a long time lol
