Talk to your doctor. Very sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis. Really hope your treatments (as brutal as they are) can help you. My wife has been neutropenic for over 20 years. (Autoimmune neutropenia) We had to learn to 'live' with it. Febrile neutropenia is a serious side effect for people with cancer who are treated with chemotherapy. When your immune system is suppressed, an oral temperature of greater than 101 F or a fever of at least 100.4 F that lasts an hour or more can be a sign of a dangerous infection. Staying away from children and anyone who may showing even the slightest symptoms of a cold or flu has been critical. Sadly others being contagious early on doesn't always show symptoms. It's all about risk over gain. If you become sick or get an infection of any kind, it becomes a life threatening situation now. Your Chemo treatment will most likely be suspended while your recover from that. And not getting your treatments could have serious consequences. Our lives changed forever with my wife's diagnosis, We made THE number one priority in our lives to do EVERYTHING we could to give her the best chance of survival. It's a battle every day and it will need to continue forever. You can do this, but having your mind, body & spirit all going in the same direction, can be very beneficial. Good Luck A-Jay

Interesting design but I'm apprehensive. With that line tie on the nose of the jig, when fishing in hard cover (rocks especially) what's preventing the line from chaffing or at least being somewhat damaged as the jig bounces the line off the rocks ? At least with a regular line tie eyelet, the jig will not be wearing away at the line where it connects every cast. Looks like a big fish story waiting to happen. #hardpass A-Jay

You know I can ultra dink it up with the best of them ~ While wearing Bug Man Sunglasses at the same time ! 😎 A-Jay

Both my cameras are manually operated. I run the camera at the back of my rig (which faces forward) to capture me 'fishing'. It runs pretty much the entire time I'm on the water. I do not high light portions of the video, I simply take what I want from each clip during the editing process. The more I did it, the better I got at it. It's actually fairly easy and not at all time consuming once you get used to it. My 'forward' camera, is used and turned on & off for specific opportunities, (clip intro, fish weigh & display) and is very easy to edit as there is far less content on that deal each trip. I am not a Short Cut kind of guy - don't always look for the easiest way. I'm more about the most effective way and then I fine tune it the best I can. There is no question that running video, (especially fishing solo), absolutely cuts into my fishing time. However, I almost always get out of any endeavor, whatever I am willing to put into it. And that's what enables me to get shots like this. Good Luck A-Jay

Line or equipment? Line. It's the only thing between me and my new PB, regardless of the cost of my tackle. There is nothing more final in fishing than broken line. btw, I use Tatsu quite a bit. A-Jay

Workout Day 4 today. Completed 3 working sets of the 4 movements scheduled. Showing them here. Felt good and I like that. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

With the exception of some dressed trebles on a few topwater baits (not made by Rebel) there is NOT A STOCK Treble on anything I throw. I should have take stock in Owner Hyper wire oval & round split rings too. The op's post is the driving force. As a side note, slightly 'oversized' tackle comes in handy as well.

Sabbatical for me = Doesn't get big bass bites for me here. Eventually they usually get rehomed during hard water season. #glidebaits A-Jay

The recording time of a 256GB SD card varies based on video resolution and bitrate. Roughly, it can record around 22 hours of 1080p HD video, 5-6 hours of 4K Ultra HD video, or 1-2 hours of 8K Ultra HD video. A-Jay

Some days just start out better than others ~ A-Jay

Looping is cool until it's not done correctly or one 'forgets' to save an important clip. Then the camera records right over it and it's gone forever. For the record I NEVER USE THE LOOP, EVER. IMO, it's an accident waiting to happen. A-Jay

Workout Day 3 today. Been trying to stay on track with my training days and fishing days. Don't really want to miss either of both (if any). So far so good. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

"The value of counting the fish I catch" is clearly a personal matter that satisfies whatever one believes to be 'valuable'. Personally, I chose to count the ones that count. YMMV A-Jay

Now THAT'S FUNNY ! A-Jay

I was where I wanted to be and when I wanted to be there early this morning. Problem was, a big weed die off was fouling just about every other cast. Water temps were still 70 and I was on some bait in a few spots, so I stuck with it a while. Glad I did. A Fat Smallie hammered a spinnerbait and then a complete Tanker of a Musky swallowed my jackhammer like it was a tic tac. Fight was tricky (no wire) but we got her done. Fun morning and a great way to break in the new Go Pros. A-Jay

Got my annual Musky Quota checked off this morning. What Brute ! Thanks for the inspiration @T-Billy A-Jay

5.24 lbs on the full moon today ~ A-Jay

@ol'crickety nice bass. My report, pics and video are coming later today. Spoiler alert 5 pound brown and 4 ft musky. In-Sane. 🤓 A-Jay

Nicely Done Sir. Made my Night ! Congrats A-Jay

Workout Day 2 this morning. Completed 3 working sets of the 4 movements scheduled. Showing all of them in this one. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

I'll be out doing the same. But expect to be fishing difference baits and about 1000 miles west. Good Luck ~ 😎 A-Jay

Oh come on now. Bet you say that to all the boys. A-Jay

My rig is like this as well. Truck is 3/4 " and the trailer is 13/16" with a deep socket or something wacky like that. Here's another tip . . . Purchase a few extra trailer lug nuts and keep them in your towing vehicle. I stripped one out a while back. A-Jay
