Hey y’all Looking for a short 8 weight. The rod tubes built into my boat are definitely designed for spin rods, my 9’ fly rods barely fit, I’ve snapped a couple tips over the past year when rods get bumped/kicked and the tips meet the end of the tube. I could make some modifications to get the...

I’m sure this has been discussed before, especially on the old site, but curious as to people’s preference for saltwater fly storage to prevent hook rust. I did ok managing rust in the PNW- fishing the sound for SRC occasionally, but now that I exclusively fish in the salt marsh I’m losing the...

Brown, rainbow, cutthroat, all on dries, on moving water, in WA.

Not casting all day, and most shots are 30-50ft. I'm just looking for a line that cast's nicely. I've gone through ~5 budget lines (Rio mainstream, SA frequency, Maxcatch, etc.) and I just want to get something a bit smoother. Not opposed to textured lines. Throwing seaducers, clousers, crab...

Any fishing-related goals or plans for 2024? New species, new personal best, new destination, new technique? Maybe you already have something scheduled that you're looking forward to? My goal is a flood tide redfish out of my own boat. Bought the boat mid-summer, wrenched on it for a few...

Redbands are the most striking trout I've caught. Dark, deep colors.

Echo Ion XL 6wt 10' for North Sound bulls. Never fished the Met. I don't mind an 8wt if that's the recommendation, nice to have the backbone when needed.

Haha yeah, I guess you're right! I no longer own waders/wading boots, so looking for something comparable I guess.

Air temps are cooling here in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. I expect most fishing days will be spent in the 50-60's from now until March. I spent last winter fishing the saltwater marsh on a paddleboard, and I eventually found that quick-dry nylon pants and neoprene "paddling" wetshoes were...

Nice rezzie. I love the look of this reel, what is it?

Thanks! I got a Lifetime Horizon. Very stable and seems indestructible, but the hollow hull is quite loud. I have to be careful not knocking the board with the paddle.

With water temps slowly rising in the Charleston marshes, I've been anxious to return to the grass flats and sightfish cruising reds. March is a little early for this style of fishing, as the prey that inhabit the grass flats can be slow to return from winter hideouts. However, a recent...

Northern Idaho- NF CDA, St. Joe, NF Clearwater etc. Camping and cutthroat, can't beat it.

What I miss most about the PNW is the variety of fisheries. Stillwater, warmwater, saltwater and moving water all provide unique fishing experiences for a wide array of species. We would like to plan an annual extended trip home to the PNW, and I would l like to dabble in as much different...

Beautiful video that I think this forum will especially appreciate. I waste a lot of time on Youtube, but this one is a gem.

Visiting home in August, and there is an alpine lake calling my name that should be fishing well. A quintessential North Cascades spot. Will be my first trout outing in 2 years. Until then the redfish will keep me busy. Would also like to get some more snook off the beach somewhere in FL, and...

Here's a couple North Sound saltwater bulls as well

Looking forward to it!
