I’m late to this news Nick, but am very happy to hear you are continuing out of Westport! I was fishing with my son for SRC in the sound this past weekend and thinking about you. Do you still guide in Puget Sound outside of summer tuna season?

I am loving the Cortland Compact series, and they do seem more durable to me than the OBS. I’ve used in I/S3 for PS beach and also I/S9 for jetty and surf fishing. I can’t speak apples to apples on casting performance because I also switched over to a 7 wt streamer style rod (Echo Streamer X)...
