Just that, a leather sheath. Sorry no knife inside.

Rod socks, a reel case or two, wader bag, fly tying tool, neoprene boot inserts, a clothes pin… STH spools and top, don’t know where the bottom is, one spool has an unknown floater and the other an unknown sinking line. Lines are used 6wt Type 5 that broke about 20 or so feet up from the...

Unfortunately, we are hosting a family dinner tomorrow. I do appreciate the effort to try to wrangle the cats though.

Tom, that could be the same leader…

Pro Tip, to really set your flies up for success and to give them a little more action in the water, you should consider a spring/coil leader system. Or, it might be time for me to replace my leader, one or the other.

I’m so bummed I wasn’t the one who caught the perch.

Fly line! I use the peg as another visual level for takes.

Yes but not by much. I use heavy flies most of the time that counter that potential issue. Couple that with sensitive, pear shaped, dual colored indicators, and the extra distance and ease of casting I gain far out weigh the slight change in full vertical leader.

On a side note. I highly recommend drilling out your pegs so they can easily slip over your knots.

1X is thick, and as such could mess with the way that your fly sits, but might also be too much for line shy fish. As for my set up, I use either a 12’ or a 15’ knotless tapered leader that ends in 2X. From there I add 3X fluorocarbon long enough to reach where I want me top fly to fish.

There is like $120 bucks worth of chironomids alone in there! What a freaking bargain!

Totally worth the read! Thank you.

Nailed it!

Well bummer, I was there about 90% of the time, my loss.

Exactly. Study any history at all!

Kinda weird, I don’t remember you saying hi to me at the book store.

Any Lamson Konics?

As I already posted on another thread, I will be there the whole time both days and the night before. Normally I present, but I decided not to this year. I’ll be at the book store, come say hi, I’ll have a name tag on that says Ira.

I didn’t make my sarcasm noticeable enough! Not a lake that I have explored much of, but I have caught fish there.
