re: Reel cleaning in Lafayette

Nice fella.


Looks good, what does he charge to clean?
I'm looking to make a run to Elmer's this weekend. I can take the kayak in the marsh if it's too windy but I want to try the surf in the kayak using cut bait on the bottom for bull reds and working something on the top for whatever else is around.

Any tips for Elmer's fishing in February? I've heard bull reds bite on the beach in the cold months but what else is out there?

TIA.
Trying to decide if it'll be worth it to head down in the morning. There's a 30% chance of storms tomorrow and I think there were some storms over the weekend, not sure if the water is too dirty with all that.

Bummed I didn't catch one.
What are we specifically talking about with cleaning? For general water clarity or do they actuallh help filter out things like pollutants?

Noob Black Ops 3 question

Posted by ClydeFrog on 12/18/15 at 10:07 am
It's my first time playing Black Ops 3. I used a token to unlock Perk 1 greed or whatever it is. It looks like it's using up one of my ten slots and I don't know how to remove it. The other slots let you press X to remove, there's no option for that on this one.

How do I get rid of perk 1 greed to get a slot back?

You have it backwards. It was the BYU girls that were getting punched and getting their hair pulled.
Libs say we don't need guns to keep us safe while at the same time saying they need to confiscate guns to keep us safe. Can't have it both ways.

Guns are here to stay. Disarmament would only take guns from the law abiding citizens. Criminala/terrorists could continue to find guns through the ones currently available on the street plus the flow of guns over the Mexican border that Liberals refuse to secure.

What are some of the various ways to fish a gold spoon?


I should have just called it a versatile lure. The common way is a straight retrieve in the middle column where the lure turns a bit. You can also work it bouncing off the bottom more jig style or use a lighter spoon to run it at the surface.

I consider these different because you can't do the same with most other hard baits. They're more likely to be a specific top water popper or walker or a suspending jerk bait that is good but just not as versatile.


As for the line shy bit, I read that somewhere and just didn't think it was a big deal to tie a fluorocarbon leader on just in case.

Do you use mono or braid for your main line?

I only do use a leader to hide my braid because I hear specks are line shy.

Voros hit it well but I think a 40lbs leader for the marsh is a bit much. I used 30 lbs for awhile but my knots were bigger than I like. 20 or 25 lbs works for me.

And if you're fishing the marsh, I like a 1/4 oz gold spoon. Redfish love it and it's very versatile with the number of ways you can fish it.

The new CZ 805 Bren is 5.56.

ETA: not sure if civilian version is out yet. There is a pistol type model but that's different.

Park City is the answer.

Short drive from airport


From the SLC airport? Park City is one of the more out of the way resorts you can choose if distance from airport is a factor. The resorts in Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons are closer.

But overall, Park City is probably the best for people who come from out of town.
