Is there a specific way /out/ prefers to bleed Salmon and Trout species of fish? I cut the gills like crazy, fish bled out, but there was still a bunch of blood when I did the filets. Is it better to just cut them lightly so the fish slowly bleeds out? Only thing I can figure is the blood loss happened to quick and the heart stopped. Is there some technique to this? It seems like it works sometimes and then doesn't.

Also, I left the fish out until it wasn't moving and then put it on a stringer in the water. Did this cause the blood to coagulate and then stop the remaining blood from draining?

Picrel is my catch yesterday. It actually still tasted pretty good but I'm sure it'd be better if properly bled. I did sponge it off with paper towel but that's probably not ideal.

what retarded /out/ purchases have you made that are kinda cool anyway?
my mom found out that i bought a titanium spork for $20 and she is genuinely questioning my intelligence.

Anyone know of any good brands? Where can I buy, is there anywhere besides taobao and alibaba?

Hayfever bros where you at?

How can i get into sailing as a beginner? I've dreamed about it for a while and want to start studying.
I have some questions:
1: Is long term sailing a thing? For example staying out on the sea for a couple months, or is that a thing of the past?
2: Is there a dedicated community to sailing where i can find other people to sail with me? I'm not sure if this is a pipe dream i will have to do alone or not since i've only thought about it.
3: What are good books/resources i can use to help me get into this?
4: Is it possible to get an internet connection out on the sea? (Sorry if this is a stupid question)
Thanks to everyone who replies.

Tell me about the weather, plants, animals, locals, cuisine, etc.

Do you hated there, do you love it there?

I'm genuinely curious

Why do the outdoor subs on this site attract so many armchair experts?

My company gave me a 3k/month card to spend on anything.
Lost most my gear to mold & havent been /out/ since about a year now beside small trips. Any suggestions on how to spend like a true gear fag?

Mostly looking for suggestions for summer & short backpacking trip stuff. How would you spend it?
