All yours Sir! Jim

I've lost some weight and need some new ones as well. Finding waders that are a 32" length for a size 12-13 foot is almost impossible. Once you get into a 32" length, the foot size is usually 9-11. The Redington Sonic Pros are what I have now.

Shimano Symetre 4000 - Pretty good condition and pretty smooth. Used very lightly and has unused either PowerPro 20 or 30lb spooled up. It's got some grime built up from sitting the last few years but it would make someone a great salmon/steelhead reel. Just the reel. No box or parts. I...

Sorry for the late report back. I was running low on time so I just hit the Kalama. Saw maybe a dozen anglers (looked like they were fishing jigs and bead under a float with gear). A few drift boats as well. Water was running high and fast and really colored up. Muddy. I pulled over to a...

I appreciate it. I've never actually driven along the river so I might at least do a quick scouting run.

Good point

Well that gives me a little hope.

That's definitely an option. Was just hoping to fish some new waters, to me.

I appreciate the intel. That's kind of what I've been hearing. Never fished it before so I was kind of curious. Time permitting, I might try and spot or two, you know, for science.

I'm heading down to Astoria for the long weekend and thought about taking a little detour to the Kalama on my way back which will be through Portland. This is not a "fishing weekend" but if I'm driving by the exit on I-5, thought I might need to drop a line in? Just wondering if it's worth...

Hey Richard, Thanks for the offer. Let me see if a trade comes up but if not, that might work. I’ll let you know. I’m in West Seattle and work downtown so Greenwood is easy for me. Jim

Probably a long shot trade ask but I'm looking for a 10wt 4pc rod. I've got a very lightly used Echo Boost Blue 6wt that I'm willing to trade straight up or add money to for a 10wt. I'm not looking for anything that breaks the bank. Maybe in the $250 to a stretch $500 range overall before...

Beautiful fish and glad to see the Battenkill is getting put to some good use!

😂

Thank you Tom!

Thought I would bump this up from the depths of the pages to see if any interest? I forgot I had listed this and the set had not sold.

For Saltwater, the Daiwa BG's are hard to beat. Not the lightest reels out there but they will hold up well. I just spray them off after use and they have lasted 3+ years now with no issues whatsoever. If you want to spend more, the Ballistic or Saltist are also fantastic.

Fin Nor made some really high quality stuff. I had several Tycoon Fin Nor offshore trolling reels years ago. I preferred them over my Penn Internationals.

You look into "Wilderness with Amani" on YouTube. He's got a ton of content down in that area and fishes a lot of easily accessible area and then some not so easily accessible areas as well. https://www.youtube.com/@wildernesswithamani1027

Me too. The drag on these is really nice but probably way overkill for a II size. But, good to have if you need it I guess. The lines alone in this set are around $160 new. Peach has been fished a couple times and the Camo has never been fished. Only reason I'm selling this set is I have...
