i see several every day . they are in everything i pick up or move . they love living in the irrigation boxes and pretty much under anything that doesnt move. they are a cool looking spider and rather passive. i would probably let them live if i didnt have to stick my hands in to the irrigation boxes 56x a week
I had no idea they were so common out there

stay safe bruv

if something were to happen to you

I just don’t even know. I can’t even finish the thought

While you guys are cozy in bed, sleeping off last night’s microwaved pizzas, I’m out here honing my craft.

I’m picturing a battle as epic as when thor accidentally hooked the Midgard serpent
I don’t know if you remember but there used to be a mod here called @Birdwatcher. He was a troll and he’d cyber bully me pretty bad. He’d say things like “You’re stupid”, “You’re too dumb to catch a fish.”, “You have a shitty personality.”, he’d make fun of my triceps. Basically the guy almost ruined my posting experience. Part of me wishes he were still around so he could see the man I’ve become.

Did you keep that and eat it or do you have such little respect for fish that you purposely choose to handle them with dry disgusting hands in hopes the get a disease and die a slow death? Either way decent catch.

I had my first “no way that happened “ fish story yesterday. Buddy and I go to Sawmill lake which is a trophy lake meaning catch and release, single barbless, no bait and fly rod only. Within an hour he hooks into what feels like his biggest fish to date. I’m pretty close to him so I put my rod under my arm and get my phone out to record him in action. As he’s fighting it I get a big bite on my rod but I lose it by the time I put my phone down and try to hook up. I tell him “Fuck me! You’re on your own going forward I lost that one!” I kick away a little and cast out but continue to watch him fight. Once he lands it we find out it is indeed his biggest trout and she’s a beauty. I kick over again to get the photo op so once again I tuck my rod under my arm to take a quick shot and sure enough another hard strike. I couldn’t even get mad as it’s hilarious at this point. I get the picture and lose yet another fish and when I reel in to check line I see I lost my fly as well, fish ripped it off. I tell him “well if we catch one with a gomphus nymph in his face you know it’s mine”. I tie on another fly and get back to work. We’re the only ones on the water and it’s super quiet and we here some splashing behind us. I look back and see a fish rising but it’s not going back down. We think it may have been the target of an eagle or something and it’s injured but can’t tell. I kick over and see a trout moving around but staying close to the surface, enough that I can see it’s fins and water ripple. I get right up to it and reach back to grab my net to scoop em up and that’s when I see my fly floating near with about a foot of tippet attached and it’s wrapped around the fish. It’s the fish I had one ten minutes earlier! Amazing!!! It reminded me of the time ShatsBassoon @ShatsBassoon stepped to me and I slapped him in the face. He ran away after taking my change from the bar top. When I saw him hiding around the corner outside he was sobbing and holding his face so I walked over, took my toonie back, snapped a photo and left him for dead.
