Ya, one of my favorite local lakes only has room for the ramp, with brush covering the edges. Never fails to have some bait, shore fisherman set-up on it. Man, do I get the stink eye. Coming back to shore is worse as they refuse to reel in, so I just run over there lines. I told one surly guy...

That was a popular whitewater kayak from the late 60’s before Perception and Hollowform introduced the rotomold plastic kayak. At least 50yrs. old. Big feet need not apply!

Those Ressie are perfect size for smoking whole. Great beer snacks..!

Sounds like you could use a rod for a heavy sink line. Sinkers are a must for stillwater fishing. With a sink line you’ll probably be using streamer type flies, leech, dragons, minnows. So, I’d get a 6#. You’ll find you can cast a sinking line a frick’in mile, so a 9’ is good unless you have...

They just lowered the price to $15..

I watched a lake fishing video today, and to my amazement, a man was using a Miyazaki Popper fished sub-surface with a short leader and heavy sink line and was killing it. Is that a thing.? I love how creative some people are. Guess I’ll dig out my saltwater fly book and give this a try..

We would just head for the mountains that time of year. Flaming Gorge is pretty nice as is the High Uintas, just outside of Manila, near Dutch John. Now, the town of Green River, Ut.? Salmo is right, too damn hot, tho their melons are quite refreshing..

Bonneville or Lahontan Cutthroat would love to munch on those trash fish..just saying..

Yesterday I went to a local westside lake I frequently fish and noticed it didn’t have its usual stellar clarity. As I rowed around with my fish finder, it showed fish all over in the 10/15’ depth. So I logically started triggering that depth with my offerings. In my foolishness, I hadn’t...

Buzzy, 15/20’ leader. This idea should work as I don’t use a bobber just an inline indicator and should be able to cast it all…thanks..

Don’t have room as I’m trying to put a Bloodworm right on the deck..thanks. Is this allowed on a catch and release lake?

I have them but not on these skinny patterns. Just hate waiting sooo long for them to get down. Thanks for the advise..

I have been using a 2 fly indicator rig using unweighted flies. One with a glass bead and one with none. I’d like to get them to sink down into position quicker and thought a small shot would help. They are spread out about four feet from each other. Would you place the shot between them or...

Yes, except that the stripper and first guide are larger then back in the day. Even more so for saltwater rods..For me that’s all good except I am challenged to get these larger, single sized guides wrapped properly up on the skinny tip section.

https://www.rodbuilding.org/library/fly_rod_guide_sizing.pdf I’ve read about this on some spin/cast sites and find it interesting. Seems to be the modern way, using more, smaller guides. On NFC’s placement charts they specify 11 guides on a 9’ rod, one more than traditional. And getting down to...
