Uhh, no.

There is no way I could get to my roof, though it's a fairly steep pitch. Some snowfall trivia for my area: https://www.weather.gov/arx/snow.rst

We're looking to set some records, getting into the 60s

Resale never really comes to mind with fishing gear, until it isn't getting used. I put a lot of forethought into my purchases and rarely resell what I bought.

Looks like they drilled the hull.

I leave Elaztech baits in the bags. Those go into a tall Edge Box or a speed bag.

Interesting, my 2010 Sierra switch rests in auto mode, but you can rock it to the left to turn off, and then I turn on the driving/fog lights. Rotate the switch to the right to turn them back on.

Yes.

The only wrong way to do things:

The pet shop I worked at sold them as pets. They bite when frightened. they are hard to catch when they get away.

No, I haven't. It's still the one that really turns my screws though.

I think it's the same as it's always been, it's just way more visible these days. Luckily, I work in an environment where we all hold each other accountable via total transparency in what we're working on. It's a true collaborative team win or failure, whichever the outcome. We don't waste time with blame when we fail, but spend lots of effort to figure out how to avoid repeating the mistake. Many of the younger people straight out of college are great at this. I think what we're seeing is more visibility to the breakdowns in accountability through technology like the internet, mobile devices, constant data and feedback in our faces. It's hard to hide from that. That said, people that don't do what they say they're going to do, or don't provide a reasonable explanation and a path forward to resolve the situation are still y peeve. Get off my lawn!

Complainers are mine. Just kidding, I complain a bit about things, mostly bad driving or people not holding themselves accountable.

Pile that on top of my list of excuses for not catching, lol. Seriously, I've never had an issue.

I don't know about that, $2K and you're pedaling. Works for me. What are you in for on that Old Town? There's probably a reason.

Stop giving away my secrets!

Sell it and buy a Hobie. Mirage Drive is the jam.

PB Blaster is messy, but better - As seen on TV!

I wouldn't use on any of my tools. The stuff is snake oil.

Great, I can't get Ted Williams' frozen head out of my brain...

A spoon is probably the most universal when comes to bigger species. If you want to catch little stuff, then a small marabou or bucktail jig would work.

You can surgical steel, if you prefer: https://www.aventools.com/long-nose-pliers-stainless-steel-6-2

Pretty sure the WJ are/were made in China.
