Try to not suck so much at snowmobiling.
>Pic related

Do more racing, either dirt or snow. Might give snowmobile hillclimb racing a shot this year.

Travel across Europe/Middle East on a motorcycle. See the pyramids, Darvaza gas crater, and enjoy some mountain twisties.

I need insulating layers and general use pants for hunting and other things this fall/winter.

I'd like to find this stuff as cheap as possible as I'm losing weight and won't fit into this stuff next season.

I'll be doing a lot of hiking but also a lot of sitting in 20-30f temps.

For base layers I'm just going to find some cheap merino.

For pants I was thinking midweight nylon ones.

I don't know what type of insulating pant I'd need or how to layer pants.

A decent jacket with some insulation and material that won't rip easily because of branches and stuff would be great too.

Any recommendations for specific items, advice on layering, or just general advice would be much appreciated.

Garcinia Cambogia.

34" waist to 32".
Now it's just discipline.

OP GO! Right now, I'm loving Mossy Oak High Country pattern.

I posted on /out/ last year asking what these were.
My dad found them in Nevada.
You guys told me they were probably clay beads that fused together when they were fired.
Now I'm wondering if they are possibly very tiny concreations?

So there is a small island on a river by my house, the island is probably about .5 square miles in total area or so. I've visited it a bunch of times on my canoe.

This weekend I'm going to stay there overnight with some friends, and I want to see what kind of wildlife I can identify there. So far I've seen some birds there, but other than that nothing.

I've never tracked animals before, so I have no clue what to look for. Also not expecting to see anything other than squirrels or other small varmints.

Any tips?

What's a basic size fishing rod for both peir and shore fishing? And does the rod have to be specifically for salt water?
14 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
>>879089
If you get a freshwater reel and fish salt with it, make sure you clean it really well afterwards because the saltwater will rape the bearings.

It's kinda hard to do all-in-one, depends what you will get off the pier. A 7' MH rod with a 3000-4000 size reel should work but you will be limited to bass and catfish in freshwater and it should handle decent sized stuff off the pier. You aren't going to be casting any panfish lures very well with it.

I guess another option would be to get two spools for the reel so you could run 6lb or 8lb line for freshwater (you will have like 200yds+ tho) and then put heavier line for the pier on the second spool.
>>
It depends, what are you trying to catch?
>>
>>879089
Does it really matter what kind of rod I'm using if I'm just doing it hoping to only catch one fish all day

Is it bad I really enjoy casting more than anything?

I use the one on the left for pier and surf (San diego- we get decent tidal forces and rip currents)
But the pic shows that you can be creative.
>>
>>878999
Oh ya, weight depends on what's left in my tackle box but should depend on condition.
Heavier stuff just for stormy days.
>>
Sinker form = place where fishing (sand, mud)
Weight = weather, current, line and rod test....
Just buy different kinds and test i dunno where you fish and the best way to learn is experiment not listening advices in 2chan

Has anyone tried or seen one of these new B and S generators?
since they have just a bit more power they are supposedly able to run an A/C unit.
Anyone have real experience with this?
They cost half what a honda does

>supposedly able to run an A/C unit

>which is usually peak rating, not continuous

unless it's an incredibly small A/C, it's not going to run it. Even a small rooftop camper AC will overload that gen on startup. Need about 3kW for those, 4kW peak/startup.

Good for everything else in a camper though - charging house batts, run small electric appliances, charge laptops/cameras/equipment.

It is parallelable, so two of them together will give you capacity for an AC.

If you're looking for a less-expensive option instead of honda/yamaha, i'd check out the generac units. I have an older ix2000... it works well. The newer iq2000's are even better, quieter, and add parallel capability.

If you're mainly using it to power an AC, i'd just buy a 3kW+ honda/yamaha unit.

I have run a small window unit with a 2000 wat honda before but it did trip once in a while .
That one was 1600 continuous and this one is 1700 so I was hoping it was just enough extra to iron out the occasional tripping

How can I do it, /out/?

I am too materialistic and my life is based on the approval of others. I am very self conscious and spend my money on frivolous comics and action figures only to post them on the God-forsaken website and get the approval of other people I will never meet.
When I am sad, I will often buy an item. A book or a toy or a comic book or a movie, only to be happy for a few hours and then I am back feeling dreary.
How do I learn to let go of my materialistic life and become like /out/? I want to be happy just walking down the street and being outside. I feel like being outdoors will also help me lose weight and that will help make me happy.
I am too concerned with what actor said what to whom. I am too worrysome about weather the latest film in my favorite series will pander so SJWs. I am too occupied in visiting every retail store in the area looking for that one action figure I want for my collection.
I need to give up this selfish, materialistic life I have been living
How can I do it, /out/?

/out/! I LOST MY AXE. I don't know where I lost it at either!

there are no flea markets where I live to find cheap used axe heads because my area sucks.

and I'm never gonna buy another crappy axe from the home improvement store that has a fucking head glued onto some shitty fiberglass shaft that ALWAYS comes lose.

but I don't wanna shill out 200+ dollars for a GFB. what are my options?

Well, primarily seasonings in my circumstance. I've tried looking for a multi-season holder for my own custom blends; something modular I can easily reuse. Haven't been able to find one unfortunately, so I'm considering just some tiny glass vials instead and pack them away in one of the many small cases I have. Unless someone here can give me a good alternative, or provide what they carry their seasonings in.

I'd say go with some small mason jars. Not the ones with the latch, but the ones with the screw on top. Probably too big for what you want, but it's a good seal.
>>

Why don't you look for something like this?

https://www.amazon.com/Moyishi-Clear-Silver-Aluminum-aluminum/dp/B00MDBZ266/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1476668499&sr=8-3&keywords=metal+jar

A container like this could be found in all sorts of places. Just take a sharpie and write the seasoning name on the lid.

I don't know if I'd even bother with glass vials desu senpai.
>>
>>877302
A 4oz mason jar is good for pre-mixed seasonings, or if you want to prep seasonings in bulk.

Can I ask whats wrong with the jars with the latch tops? I got a couple of these style in about 3oz size from a local place. They seem to do the job well enough. For $1 each if the seals go bad in 5 years I won't feel bad about tossing them.
