Have a season pass to Big Sky. Went out on New Years, vegetation & rocks still protruding through the snow base. Worse snowpack I’ve seen in a long time. Hoping for more snow.

I haven’t found a single negative review yet which is promising. I plan on using for small to medium size rivers and alpine lakes.

Looking to add a 4wt for fishing here in SW MT. I have the the Centric 5wt which is a great rod, but looking for a medium flex rod. Anyone cast the 8’8 4wt?

Thanks. Ordered his latest copy off Amazon. Can’t wait to give it a read.

My wife is due in a few weeks so will have a 5 month old along with our two year old on this trip so over night backcountry trips are a no go. The majority of hikes will include my oldest son and myself, while my wife watches the newborn from the RV. We did a multi overnight trip in...

My wife has graciously agreed to go on a week long fishing road trip for the first week of July. We usually make the short drive to the Madison every year and catch the Salmon fly hatch, but I’ve been growing tired of the crowds. I’ve gained an interest in Stillwater fishing lately, especially...

Happens every time I take my wife’s rig since she has an Apple Tag on her key chain. The audible hack might buy you a little bit of time before they find it, or get annoyed/paranoid enough to toss what ever they stole out the window.

Hopefully the dirtbag gets some jail time. Unfortunately, there are too many dirtbags in this world. Just as many people stealing things as committing insurance fraud. Therefore, insurance companies require serial numbers and or proof of purchase. Anything of considerable worth, I document and...

Check out the rafting forum (Mountainbuzz.com) you’ll see most recommend 8’ oars for a 48” frame. I took that NRS 96 review into consideration, but that was the only review I could find that suggested a different length other then the 8’ oars. Ended up ordering the 8’ Sawyer 2 piece Polecats...

Interesting. Have you personally upgraded to the 5hp?

Check out simms or Orvis.

Just check out the Yeti specs. Gobox should be 4-5” shorter in height than the 35. I already have a Go box and will be using it for dry storage in my NRS 96. Or https://flyproject.us/fly-project-saratoga-boat-box

It’s always been a bit erratic and a bit of a pain to start, even with a full tank. I’m hoping it’s due to using ethanol gas. Which I won’t make that mistake again.

Thanks. I figured it shouldn’t take too long.

I purchased a second hand Tohatsu 3.5 4 stroke motor. By the end of summer, it was having problems with idling and throttle response. I’m by no means a mechanic, but could this be possibly due to a gummed up Carb? If that’s the case, how many hours should it take for a mechanic to clean it...

That’s what I get for posting at work. Haha Good catch. Still could get a Hyside with a frame for that much.

Those prices for the new Slipstream are outrageous. 96 is 1/3 of the price of the new 106. The only notable upgrade besides size was an upgraded floor which apparently drafts better.. That doesn’t warrant that price. If you know someone, NRS is giving out codes for friends and Family. Well...

Check out the Hyside Mini-max, Sotar Micostrike or the new Fly Craft which apparently now has a self bailing floor. All options will be more narrow than the Slip Stream, but more $. AIRE Puma another great option, but closer to 11.5ft. My dream boat would be a Micro Strike with the added...

It your doing longer floats I would opt for the next size. 96 would be extremely tight with two people and some gear. I’ll see if I can track down some pictures, but space is obviously very limited. Just saw an article about their new 129 SlipStream that’s coming out. That would be a good...
