  17. Nick you are having a rough year for sure. Toothaches are some of the worst things I have ever experienced. Medicare doesn't cover any of it and you are correct about "extractions" I asked a dentist to pull one and they flat out refused insisting on a lot of work and a bill that would have amounted to close to 3 grand, took a bit to find one to just pull it. Reminds me of my grandfather, he had a meat grinder clamped to the table and all of his food went through it after he had most of his pulled.
  18. strange year lots and lots of water, no thermal shutdowns, but high flows all summer (way better than last year's drought). waiting for the fall salmon starting quickly (broodstock program) then the traveling for the great lakes steelhead after the dog gets a little more exercise chasing birds. my best fishing of the year was springtime not complaining I enjoy every minute on any water with or without fish. only regret for this year was no trip north to the Maritime's and very little wanderlust activity.
  19. I can't imagine ever, ever, doing that. I'm not afraid of heights but very concerned with falls.
  20. Yes, I have used them for LMB with good results, also for trolling lakes and ponds. try a few with weighted heads for a jig action.
  21. Irritating -breaking news is always welcome but having the ability to search and fixate on depressing information 24/7 can not be healthy. But I am a not a social media user and try limit my exposure to the TV news usually listen to the radio broadcasts.
