I had a crazy birdsnest yesterday and I think I cut off all the 4lb that I had tied to the 6lb bulking up the spool.
Now I’m wondering if I should even tie more 4lb on to get it back to full spool…
Does it (full spool) really matter that much for casting distance? Should I trust this 4 year old 6lb mono?

US Army ACU camouflage pattern items can be found at low prices. The ACU pattern has been discontinued by the US Army and it is not a very well liked pattern. Since it has been discontinued and is not well liked there is a lot of it available and low prices.
I bought some textile dye at Hobby Lobby and dyed the ACY gear I bought to better match the vegetation in my area of Appalachia.
My experience with military surplus gear is that it is very well made and durable. The picture has a couple items I have dyed next to a M81 Woodland Alice Pack, a USMC desert camo shingle and a British DCP pack cover. I live in a low population area and do not see many if anyone out on the trails I use so I do not have to worry about what some REI store assistant manager thinks about my gear choices. I can use what I am happy with.

Tacticool : LARPing as military aka stolen valour
Gearfag : spending more time worrying about gear purchases then actually using the gear.

Tacticool is just a subcategory of gearfag.

How crap are they? They won't need to be mountaineers for some of the easier climbs but they will need to be generally fit. The Lakes can get very rainy so make sure they've got proper waterproofs and boots if you go up anything big.
You can hike along the top of the Wastwater screes, it's not that high and very gentle once you're up, with an excellent view of the lake. Otherwise, the easiest and safest thing for beginners is to visit some of the waterfalls around. But so long as they aren't overweight and have sensible clothing, you can definitely go climb some of the hills.

Post your yak hacks.

I got a new Quest Outlands 100 about a week ago and I've already been bitten by the yak hacking bug. I got a 4.5 inch rubber plug from Amazon and cut this hole behind the seat. Now I can reach inside and install nuts and/or backing plates for more tracks and cleats. The hole deburred easily with a razor blade and with the plug in it looks totally factory.

IMO the Quest Outlands is the best poorfag fishing kayak on the market right now. The Quest Endeavor uses the same hull and they cut the entire bottom of the seat out to install an "upgaded" seat that isn't actually better, so I figure a much smaller hole with no stress risers won't compromise anything.

I'm looking for something ≤10 ft I can shove in my car and take fishing after work, seems like everything under $500 either has major warping and structural problems over time or spins out with a gentle breeze, wondering if I could just take something cheap and install a skeg to at least fix the spinning issue.

This anon >>2876819 is right. If you are looking for something cheap and will fit in a car, get a paddleboard. I'm strongly considering buying one.

Me and the other masters are going to buy and return a raft on the first day for the river, but im looking for stuff to do on foot as well

if you dont give me the best and coolest info on the area between Lakewood and Jim Thorpe PA im gonna call your boss and have you fired.

try to find gray's run vista from bodine mtn rd (probably an off trail hike the coordinates of grays run vista are on endless mtn wordpress)
he's the district attorney of sullivan county (where the endless mtns are) and he has a hiking blog with lots of useful information and weird hikes in PA esp NEPA

then report back if you found grays run vista
there's also a driveable view on bodine mtn rd if you fail
he's really the endless mtns specialist
also follow corey bires on alltrails
he lives in pa and does really cool hikes I do hikes he does sometimes (they are always hard)

I don't think this is in the area you are looking for (its south) but coral caverns is cool and the owner is legit crazy he mentions "science tells us" before introducing any fact about the cave as if his tours are usually creationist amish (maybe they are)

but your main focus should be hiking as much of the gorge at lehigh as you can if you are fit do the main trail to hetchel's tooth cliffs and keep going if able, the full loop is maybe 10 mi and 2000 ft elevation gain just guessing but the furthest away views are sorta the prettiest it looks like (just from photos ive seen ive yet to do the full gorge loop its on my dream list)

also google maps lists this as permanently closed (though there's multiple parking areas one at a house that's private so google could just have the wrong address) so maybe you should double check before going but this is a nice view of the delaware river closer to you

Extreme exploration vehicles. You see those guys spending 1000s of hours building an off road vehicle with mud tyres and a 4x4 gearbox, you see the atv's etc, but when you think about the physics of it, wheels are not designed to be going through mud, up hills, over large rocks etc. Legged vehicles are going to be the future and autonomous horse robots to ride through the wilderness are already being built.

I for one think the final frontier will be a kangaroo style mount. Its going to be hard to achieve the efficiency of a wheeled vehicle in something with reciprocating parts, and in any situation that isn't outright beaten by flying, I feel something kinetically efficient that can still remain dextrous enough to navigate challenging grades and surfaces will have to have at the very least something resembling a kangaroo's legs, or along the lines of velocity stilts if its on all fours. Maybe we'll even have pouch cockpits and parascope cameras

>NEVER SWIM ALONE
This advice is commonly parroted as part of water safety training, I myself have repeated it robotically as a lifeguard and aquatics instructor back in the day. But as an adult I routinely open swim alone all year round, sometimes in pretty rough surf. I have a healthy respect for the power of water and the elements and know when to bail. But everyone who hears that I swim solo immediately admonishes me for being reckless and selfish. Is it really that nuts? Do any of you swim alone as well. Cold exposure tolerance, physical fitness and biofeedback are all super important skills to develop for all outdoors related activities and i feel that solo swims in nature put this at the forefront

I pretty much only swim alone because none of my friends or family give a fuck about swimming or boating and all think I'm a crazy person for hearing the call of the sea. I'm also a borderline albino that prefers to swim on overcast/rainy days when nobody else is on the beach. If a current seems sketchy or there is lightning or sharks I just bail, because I'm very aware nobody is around to save my ass.

How does the length, hook and angle help with that?
>>
>>2874459
The drop point provides better control for fine cut work. The wide belly provides a lot of blade area for fast precise skinning. The hook is called a gut hook. The blade is on the inside of the bend with a flat outer surface, so you can cut open the belly without the risk of nicking the stomach or intestines.
>>
>>2874400
battoning. that spike on the spine of the blade is to carch the wood mallet so it doesn't slip away
>>
>>2875163
no anon that's not what it's for, you catch small branch with the hook and then baton the tip of the knife, chops it off real quick
>>
>>2874465
This.
I mean, I get it.
Not everybody grew up innawoods so there is nothing wrong with asking questions.
But ive never skinned an animal and I could look at that knife and extrapolate out from there that the hook portion was designed to split the hide without shredding everything inside.

Sorry if I've just insulted your favorite /out/ location but a few months ago I made a thread with mountains captioned as Appalachian locations and nobody could tell something is wrong, even though one of the pics was from Czechia, others were from Poland and none was actually from Appalachia. To make things even worse, I had to stop myself from using the highest parts of Carpathians cause they just look too stunning to be Appalachia. Basically Appalachia looks like one of these mountain locations I visit because they're cheaper than ones with more dramatic landscape and if I wanted to go on holyday by plane, I certainly wouldn't choose Georgia (Appalachia) over Yosemite or Georgia (Caucasus).

But maybe I'm wrong and someone who actually visited Appalachia can tell me why are they truly special?

i get a ton of leftover water from making pasta and other cooking stuff, but that water has salt in it, starch at that or when it comes to baking there might be sugar in it. none of those are good for a garden, salt kills, starch idk and sugar attracts bugs.

is there a way to purify those? it feels like a waste to toss it all away down the drain, because those are several liters that could be used.

What climate are you in? Salting really only is a problem in areas which don't have the rainfall to flush it.
