re: Has anyone else here ever created Water Hammer?
Posted by geaux001 on 1/7/21 at 11:31 pm
This is what I do for a living. On a domestic scale, you can probably just add some standpipe to the plumbing line if you have the vertical space, you can slow the closing of the valve, or otherwise reduce the acceleration of the fluid. Anyone who hates the sound their ice maker makes when it stops ...

re: Wahoo from Cocodrie?
Posted by geaux001 on 1/30/13 at 9:12 am
Start at ST 151 and fish every rig, buoy, floating trash between there and the edge of the shelf. Wahoo come onto the shelf starting in December through about April to spawn. They are not deep in GC, ~150'-350' is what you're looking for and surface temps 67-74°......

I kind of like the small pub/ gastropub thing we're seeing more of. That said, HayMerchant/ Underbelly near Midtown and nearby in the Heights, Sheperd Park Draught House, Plonk Bistro, Petrol Station are all very good......

I posted a while back about moving to Houston from New Orleans and finding some new fishing/ hunting opportunities fairly close to home and got some decent advice. Still haven't found a place to duck hunt that isn't priced sky high but I digress. I've come to the decision that I am going to try and ...

Double rigs on any cork get messed mainly because the baits tumble over cork multiple times when they're cast. This because there's weight on the cork, at the end of the line and somewhere between the cork and end bait. The way to correct this is to cast sidearm as to lessen the tendency for the bai...
re: Anyone own an Avet SX reel?
Posted by geaux001 on 7/27/12 at 11:07 am
I have a couple of their 30W's as well and they aren't near as smooth as my Tiagras but again, they have so much drag, more than I can realistically hold without being harnessed, so I decided to convert them to my Amberjack and Grouper reels.
