Circle of Friends

Is this mission supposed to make you lose all your tools? Like i have a mop but its the default and instead of my usual 3 I have 1. Instead of my usual 3 buckets I have one, default pressure washer, don't have my axe and lights. Is this supposed to happen or is it a glitch?

Tracking casts.

Is there anything out there that can track how many casts I have thrown in a session? I have an S26 Ultra phone and a Galaxy Watch. Are there any apps that can track casts and also how far I have paddled?

Footwear for the coming cooler weather.

In the summer I just wear crocs so when I launch from a bank I can throw a foot in the water on each side of my kayak and scoot myself off the bank. With fall coming and temps dropping obviously that won't be possible. What does everyone wear when the weather gets cooler? Preferably something I can get wet so I can do the same scoot method with my feet in the water to launch.

Anyone ever fish this area of Pennsauken Creek?

Was thinking about trying to check out this area of Pennsauken Creek. I fish from a kayak and mainly target largemouth. I was told I could possibly launch from where that Griffith Morgan house spot is. Figure launch from there and paddle upstream and fish the creek, that little lake in front of Pennsauken Logistics and that Akima Lake. I went to the train station at Akima Lake recently on foot and it looks fishy as hell. Anyone ever fish this area?

How often to replace thermal paste?

I built my PC about a year ago so I'm still fairly new but I was under the impression thermal paste should last for years right? My CPU used to idle at like 38-42 and under load get up to maybe 75. All of the sudden yesterday it's idling at like 50 and up to 85 under load. Which I know is still technically acceptable and it's not thermal throttling or anything but I don't know why it's suddenly higher. I last did thermal paste less than a year ago and used Noctua NT_H2 paste. The specs are...

MSI MPG X870E Edge Ti Wifi

Ryzen 7 9800X3D

Thermal Grizzly contact frame

Lian Li Hydroshift 2 LCD

The pump is running, I can feel it running if I touch it as well as the tubes. I mean if it wasn't running at all temps would probably be way higher right?

Sylvan Lake

I have never seen a more frustrating lake. It looks so fishy it's incredible. Tons of lily pads, matted vegetation, shallow water, deep water, humps and channels, drops offs, brush piles, tons of fallen trees and timber, docks, tons of shoreline cover. Yet the two times I went there this year I got skunked. Not even a nibble. Tons of fish breaking the surface(probably carp), I see fish on my fish finder, threw everything but the kitchen sink at em, and nothing. Anyone actually catch anything in this lake? Is it really that pressured? Was there yesterday and there was another guy on a kayak and two jon boats. So 6 of us total, nobody caught a thing.

Is the tester program only a temporary thing?

Last September or so I signed up for it and got the Hyperflow 360 AIO first then about a month later the King45 case to test. Nothing since then. Not complaining or anything just curious.

Catfish crushed my spoon.

I'm mainly a bass fisherman, was throwing around a Strike King Sexy Spoon yesterday morning when this catfish crushed it right in front of my kayak. Thought I had the bass of a lifetime hooked up. Lol. Definitely my PB catfish and a super fun fight. Buddy took me for a ride.

Anyone find a solution to this thing of the game wanting you to buy it again?

I bought Black Ops 6 when it released two years ago. I enjoyed it for a while but didn't play it for a while and deleted it from my PS5. Came across The Russian Badgers video about it the other day and thought yea it was kind of fun let me play it again. Go to it in the PS store and it wants me to pay 70 bucks again. Did some research and saw it's now stand alone or something and other people are having the same issue. I downloaded the main CoD hub or whatever from the PS app onto my PS5, opened it, went to all games, found BO6 and downloaded it. But still when I open the game and try to play campaign, zombies or multiplayer it wants me to buy it again. Tried restoring licenses but that didn't work either. Anyone find a solution to this?

The Tower 600 is one of the best cases out there today.

I like that it keeps that fish tank look without looking like every other O11 Vision clone out there today. Personally I love it. Show me your Tower builds!

Tailgaters and other hazards.

I swear having a kayak on my roof is a freaking magnet for tailgaters. I mean sure I may drive a little more gingerly with a 100 pound kayak strapped to my roof but I'm doing the speed limit. Why are you riding my ass for no reason? Go around me you dork.

Also something I realized is there is a danger for those of us who wake up hella early to go fishing, hunting, work, whatever. The drunken pieces of garbage who are still out from the night before. I see them on the road driving while clearly drunk. I see them in Wawa while getting my coffee and water clearly wasted being total douchebags. I almost got T boned by some drunk driver recently who blew a red light then was swerving all over the road. Called 911 and gave them the plate and location but who knows if they got him.

Anyways rant over, be careful out there people. So you can enjoy many more days on the water.

Burlington Island

Anyone ever fish the small lake on Burlington Island in the Delaware River? Are you even allowed to fish there? I was thinking about kayaking across the river from the NJ side then fishing that small lake on the island. Is it even possible to get to?

Teach a bass fisherman how to catch carp.

So to preface this I have only fished for bass all my life. But lately as I'm sitting in my kayak on this one particular lake I fish there is non stop carp jumping all around me. I know they're carp because I can see the copper/orange color of them when they break the surface. Literally all morning this morning they were jumping. How can I catch these fish? I never knew carp jumped like that. Why do they do it? Are they going after like bugs on the surface? I always thought of carp as bottom feeding fish that just sucked up stuff of the bottom. Which apparently is wrong. I'm assuming some kind of artificial lures wouldn't work on carp so what would you recommend I use to catch these fish? All my tackle is bass stuff. Spinning reels with 6-12lb line on them and baitcaster reels with 10-20lb line on them. Seems like it would be a blast to have one drag me around in my kayak.
