that looks like a cool combo, can you diagram how you rig that up, I would think the plug on the bottom, 3x3 and the wobbler on top. My concern would be tangles deploying this rig because the plug would want to float and the wobbler sink??
Sorry, but a 97% (or even 99%) eclipse won't even be 1% of the experience of a total eclipse. We'll be going to Madras that week to get the most out of what is going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
to the OP, anyone who gives you an answer is full of BS, nobody knows, I think it will have a negative impact, at home, because i'm dead center in it. if i'm home for this, me and the family are going on vacation somewhere the eclipse isn't.
I saw the last one. It's cooler than you think Roosevelt. It's a lights - out experience. And then they come back on. It's fun to see the birds and horses freak out.
Didn't we have one around here a long time ago, like when I was a kid, maybe 50's? Seems I remember something like what CCW mentioned with the birds and stuff, plus getting sort of dark out.
I think you are correct, my mom was telling me about it yesterday.
I have no doubt it will be very cool, I guess I'm just a little sick of media way over hyping things, and really hope it's not as bad as the hype train is saying (crowd wise)
There is always potential for fog on the coast, so I would guess the more hard core people will be off of the beach a bit....hopefully
My brother in-law wants to come to my place, even though I'm only in the partial zone.
Maybe one of you dead centers want to take him in. You can keep him, actually.
I remember watching an eclipse as a kid on a family vacation in Cannon Beach, so it had to be summer. And I think 1978 is too late. Could of been the one in July 1963, or September 1969. It was only partial in Oregon.
I'm kind of on the "meh" side. Like Roosevelt said, "EVERYTHING is a once in a lifetime experience" and should be treated that way. Words to live by!
I went outside and watched the one in 1978. It was cool, but not travel hundreds (thousands?) of miles and spend hundreds (thousands?) of dollars cool.
Mark my word there will be a "that was a BIG disappointment" thread on August 22nd, if not the afternoon of the 21st!!!!
I hope things go well. No fires of huge accidents.
It must be a big enough deal that Warren Beatty (allegedly)
took his Learjet to see the last one and Carly Simon wrote a song about it.
Well I hear you went to Saratoga
And your horse, naturally, won
Then you flew your Learjet up to Nova Scotia
To see the total eclipse of the sun
Well, you're where you should be all the time
And when you're not, you're with some underworld spy
Or the wife of a close friend,
Wife of a close friend, and
WAY over hyped. Witnessed one before in the south. It gradually gets dimmer, then gradually goes back to bright and sunny. I wouldn't imagine it would affect fishing any more than a dark cloud bank blocking the sunlight and moving thru. I don't get the tourism hype either. You won't need to get away from the populace and get to the highest elevation. Load of marketing BS. If you're in the zone, you'll see it. Like EVERYTHING nowadays, totally overhyped.
