    Airflo Skagit Compact G2 vs Skagit Driver?

    I think the difference is it supposed to sit a little lower in the water for better loading and maybe a slightly slower swing. I have one its a good Skagit head.

    guides offset from reel seat?

    Riverside gutting knife...

    Back in 2010 I did a nice section of the PCT in Oregon and stopped to fish a lake for a bit and found a really cool little folding knife called Winschester just sitting there on the ground next to the water. I have that thing on me basically everyday since then! It excels at avocado opening. I...

    Nehalem Sea Run question...

    part of the fun is figuring it out for yourself. if you happen to discover your next amazing honey hole you wont want to have message board discussions to act as a bread crumb trail for other anglers.

    Strange, weird or odd or whatever beach finds thread….

    Found this big ol lingcod sort of flopping on the beach at low tide. It was way up the beach about 150’ from water. Couldn’t get it back to the water it died shortly after we found it. Crabs are eating now I’m sure!

    Regulation change for fly only water rivers only

    It was very frustrating to see in the regs that Cicero bridge - French creek doesn’t open until Oct 16 this year. I really miss fishing the NF stilly during summer.

    Sling pack net holder

    have you noticed the bottom of the net handle in the middle of your back making the sling uncomfortable? It annoyed the hell out of me when I used a short handle net with the fishpond sling.

    reel grease

    I have an old pflueger medalist reel, its in great shape but I am curious what kind of grease I could rub on the parts to keep them nice and corrosion free? I accidentally dunked it while landing a fish on the yak on friday and noticed how wet the inside of the reel stayed. I would hate for it...
