    That totally makes sense, and I appreciate the professional knowledge you brought to the conversation. However, my steaks tasted great and everyone else enjoyed them. If I'm correct I think you're a chef or work at a restaurant. I don't work in the food industry. I may loosely tent my...

    I do sous vide and in the original post I stated as much. I find that sometimes dependent upon the the cut and length it's in the bath that sometimes it fucks with the texture. I don't notice it as much, but my woman does. I honestly enjoy reverse searing with the Slow-n-Sear. I can get a...

    Of course. At least 5-10 mins loosely tented in foil. I can't help it if my steaks are still juicier than fuck. I tend to dry brine them at least for an hour if not overnight, or maybe it's because I try to buy quality meat. Those particular steaks may have been cut prematurely because we...

    You can get a good crust on the grill, just need the right tools. Picked up a Slow-n-Sear for my Weber kettle, and have been more than happy with the results. Mesquite lump charcoal and a bit of fruit wood. I'll sous vide sometimes for thicker cuts and things like Tri-tip, but it's easy to...

    The Eddyline boats are nice. They're fast and way next to nothing if you're car topping. Look pretty good if your main purpose is just paddle around / recreation. if you're going to do any heavy fishing it's probably not the boat you want. I think they make some sort of angler kayak though...

    Thanks, gents! That definitely helps with prioritizing what to focus on.

    I just picked up Shadow Keep on sale this week via Steam. I haven't played since the black market or whatever that was came out. Looks like a ton of content is getting shelved with the new expansion on the horizon. Any words of wisdom for someone getting back into the game? There seems to...

    Finished watching this after dinner. Quite possibly their best episode all year for BOTW. A lot out of that is the epic shityness of the movie, but it's fun with them just focusing on Rich and his utter bewilderment.

    @Foler all the bigger brands are sporting some form of pedal drive now. The big difference between the bicycle style and mirage drive is the ability to go in reverse. Older mirage drives are stuck in forward only, but they've got a new version that flips the orientation of the fins. It looks...

    I've not ever seen one of those, but there's similar concepts out there. There's the BlueSky 360, a catamaran hull with a peddle drive system. I think they are partnered with Jackson for the peddle system. Shit starts getting into boat territory, and just seems impractical.

    It seems that there are a lot of innovative watercraft like that coming out now. I was out paddling the other weekend and saw a family with two inflatable paddle boards. I think they may have been Hobies, but I wasn't able to get a good look. But both the parents were standing up on them...

    @Foler as someone else previously mentioned, a lot of kayak shops do demo days, but they'll also rent you a boat for 24 hours. I know AustinKayak does this, but last I heard rentals we're off the table due to KungFlu bullshit, and that might be the same with demo days. But if you can find a...

    BooneDOX makes a curved bed extender that's pretty popular. T-Bone Bed Extender Almost got one but chose the Yakima LongArm due to its versatility. https://yakima.com/products/lonlongarm

    @Foler I've not ever paddled one but if I'm not mistaken it's the really low seating. I think those boats are meant for moving fast and traveling long distances. Standing up in them is not an option. Yeah maybe they're comfortable, but I really like a nice stadium sort of seat. My priority...

    Wilderness Systems have a lot of really nice boats. Another brand of take a look at is Bonafide Kayaks. Very stable platforms and they offer a lot of features for the money. I think they're based out of Greenville South Carolina, and they've really made a name for themselves over the past...

    There's tons of boats out there now that are geared towards fishing an offer lots of stability. Just depends on the types of features you want and what you find to be most important. If you want more stability you're going to sacrifice speed and agility. @lurkingdirk as long as you're not...

    @Foler I've got two boats mainly for fishing or to just paddle with my woman. A Nucanoe Frontier 12 and a Jackson Kilroy. Both are different animals. The Nucanoe is a mix between a sit-on-top and a canoe, and the Kilroy is a sit-inside with SOT seating. Nucanoe: Kilroy (not my boat) The...

    It was a truly horrendous movie, but name a good Burton movie in that time span. Big-Fish was "OK", but nothing amazing. I think the last movie by him I really enjoyed was Sleepy Hollow.

    She's got a lot of range. She was a really good in Snowpiercer, too. And the Suspiria remake was pretty awesome. Been meaning to sit down and watch it for a second time to see if there are other things I can pick up from the film.

    Wasn't there a TV show though? Is that possibly why we never got a proper sequel?

    Looks like a great day of fishing. They're so much fun to catch on light gear. If you can find a bait shop with live crickets, they work well, too. Enjoy your feast!
