Ran all my line out.
You got spooled.
Recently acquired a couple stout catfish rods. One of which looks usable as is.
I've a couple other stout rods too.
Old of course. Eyes not tough enough for modern braid line.

Don't have snagging rods anymore as that era ended legally.
Or maybe I do still have a couple.

Don't want to be using a broomstick and catching small fish. But getting spooled sure can trigger some ideas of redemption! L.o.l..

Solid glass Johnny Walker rod is stout.
Casting a big wood plug and the first fish landed was a bass not much larger than the plug. Of course.

A garage sale rod with the tip broke was about a four footer after I put a new tip on it.
Fun for small trout in the river.
One spring day with muddied run off staining the water I hooked what I suspected to be a sturgeon up to spawn. Fish was calm and just a mild thump thump as it passed a couple three feet from my feet up and down the area below a creek entering the river.
Maximum safe pressure could turn it going upstream.
Eventually after three or four up and downs it straightened the hook.
I use Aberdeen hooks for trout in the river.
Too many hook eating snags and rocks.
Never did get to see that fish!

In the great lakes around here king salmon spool folks sometimes.
 

Why does my IP address for T-Mobile 5G home Internet, consistently bounce through different countries such as London England, Helsinki Finland. Marcellus France and sometimes we're most of the times US naval facilities across the United States. My latest IP Trace shows a different couple places at the Ohio State Capitol building and that the University of bowling Green Ohio.
Anybody care to help me figure this out the National Security Agency would be handy or the Federal bureau of investigation.

Simple, you're being tracked.
 

Burnt logging slash/debris offered some life to soil.
But temporary if soil was used to try to farm.
Busted farms reverted to the state and became some of todays public grounds.
Still crap for growing much. Oh sure there's trees after decades.

I forget the name of the farm by where Dad built a home.
Immigrant told in his home country to look for oaks as a sign of good soil.
Alas , oaks here often mean sand. Sand Dad called moon dust.
The mans dairy farm failed leaving a few scars and part of a silo.
One of many.

Stumps were salvaged after logging.
On the bombed looking landscape a white pine stump meant shingles to be cut .

Here's a man who tried to farm after logging.
He brought a cow indoors in a cold spell. A chicken still the following year.
Not funny. He did it to keep them alive in the colder part(s) of winter.

Many homestead homes have the big potash pots as lawn decor.
Seems it was a staple for homesteads when they broke the deeded land grants.
 

I understand that I'm just trying to figure out why in the hell my T-Mobile home internet is bouncing through all these damn countries.
Instead of asking the members, why not stop at the nearest T-mobile and ask them WTF is going on.
 

It's easy really I will explain.

A T-Mobile Home Internet IP address can appear to be "all over the world" because T-Mobile uses a dynamic IP system, which means your IP address can change frequently and may not accurately reflect your physical location due to the way their network routes data through different towers and backend systems, potentially located far from your home; this is a common feature of mobile network providers and not necessarily a cause for concern.

There is not an infinite amount of IP addresses. IP addresses are often leased upon availability. If a company leases IP addresses from a US provider, those IP addresses will then have a US geolocation (even if the server is physically sitting in another country.)
 

Well I had a little roadtrip today.

Stopped at my tractor guys place, got the code reader, cleared the code that popped up in the Honda.

Got refunded money from the parts store.
Stopped at a survey company, started the process of getting our property lines straightened up.

Tax sale down the street. The brother is a tad daft.
I ran all the lines of the property perpendicular to the street.
🤪
Well your on my property, plus there's an unassuming street of 48ft between us.

He was making trails through our forest for the dog walkers.
🤬 inside 😁 on the outside.
So I will send him some photos of surveys.
Big meeting next week with the big wigs of the nature reserve.
Putting a plan together for the meeting.

Have to wonder when they say this:

What do propose to resolve this matter.

Oh it sounds like a omission of guilt.
I think it's best to have my ducks in a row first.

I love this stuff. 😀
NOT!
Went to the bread bakery.
Picked up our 6 month supply of bread.
42 loaves of gluten free frozen Bread fits almost in a banana box.
Try that with Wonder Bread🤣

I could knock someone out with these bricks.

I didn't see one Turkey, saw lots of Black Friday ads.

Hope everyone survived your day with your families/Inlaws.

I can set mine to be anywhere in the world.
Right now it's in another country by the name of Quebec.
