You cannot put absolutes on fishing, Not everyone fishing a corkie n yarn is "flossing" and not everyone tossing a blue fox is fishing legally either. How many times fishing bobber n egg do you get too lazy to change your bait, and a nice chromer smashes a tiny bait sinker and a string of a...

I agree with chuck! I have a symetre and the stradic.. both are nice but the stradic is worth the extra $. Cheers, Bob

What day were you out there? I Fish out there consistantly, didn't see it on Friday or Saturday. I will be back out again this week,Ill hit you up if i find it. Also i know the older gentleman that lives at bridge 1 with the red tundra, Ill swing in and ask him if he picked it up.

Randy i thought the OP's question was about pros and cons of overlining, not which line should i get (obviously i misunderstood) I was trying to offer information i have found helpful to spydey.. anyhow, i personally find james information highly educated and more than helpful, if the OP does...

James at homewaters in eugene just sent an email about a similar subject.. His tip of the month emails are very informative even though at times the subject is simple. Here is part of his email that could be helpful to you. It specifically talks about underlining a rod (i know you were asking...

R and B... I know they carry them at Oregon rod reel and tackle in Eugene but call and check his stock before driving out there, or just contact R and B direct. Fisherman's corner in Philomath has some parts.. personally i think you get what you pay for, that being said i prefer pen tac...

Thats freaking funny!! :cool:

GZ that story is hilarious, also a bummer.. I love your commitment!! So my shoulder has been an issue since i was 21...I jacked it up when i was really into whitewater kayaking on a stout canyon/gorge run down in Cali.. 8 years later i have had the thing completely rebuilt and am waiting to have...

Thanks guys!! Was thinking as soon as I get some range of motion back I'm gonna head down to rain rock with my dry suit and snorkel... Recon mission, operation frabill :)

Lost Frabill rubber catch and release net on siuslaw below rain rock :(:( Took my dad salmon/steelhead fishing this morning, on river at rain rock at daylight with hopes of winter steel. Dad makes three casts before i can even get my rods assembled.. bam fish on.. chrome little coho just a perk...

Well i will always tie on 3-4 ft of leader to the end of my sink tip attachments (generally not tapered, just some 10lb maxima mono will do.. again just an opinion).. As for the sink tip attatchment itself, If you go down to a fly shop of your choice generally they sell just an attachment that...

I took my visible WF or DT line on all of my fly rods, doubled it over on itself at the very end, super glued it, then wrapped it with jig thread in my tying vise and now have a looped end on my line.. Now i either use my tapered leaders with a loop to loop connection for using floating line or...

I can't make a recommendation in that price range because i generally live by you get what you pay for. But i will say a 10' boat is a good size for a single person wanting to carry as much tackle and equipment as you are wanting (not for floatation reasons but for space reasons). Also the...

Its easier to say the cycle then to say what i like better.. its a vicious circle and i have been riding it for years now, watch out it will suck you in too .... Winter Steel until Summer Steel until Fall chinook and coho then back to winter steel.. Springers fit in there somewhere but i...
