When dries or spinners are on the water, a size 16 std. Adams clipped flat on the bottom out performed anything on hebgen, Henry's Fork, and McDonald's Pond (RIP) for me. If they are keyed on emergers, a Quigley cripple is hard to beat. If it's windy, a feather duster in the film can be killer.

Yes, they work great

Brutha of another mutha!

My go to rod for all the above is a Loomis GL2 6'-6" for 1/4-3/4 oz. My preferred method fo fishing smallies is finessing jig heads, and the lighter rating is helpful for that. It also has enough backbone to throw decent size top water and crank baits too.

How many Cackhanded Snap Ts are required in the filming of a Simms promo?

Was that at the Stagecoach bar?

I think it's 800 lumens.

I've had the same rechargeable Streamlight for 15+ years and it hasn't let me down. I have a car charger and a wall charger for it. In addition I have a few USB Streamlight pen lights that I stash in strategic spots. Also I really like the USB headlamps made by Black Diamond. Again, I have a...

After you catch 100+ of them that internal conversation will be the same, you'll just have a better poker face.

Excellent post! The fore mentioned tragedy is exactly why the railroads don't allow trespassing. Even though CSX refused to grant permission to the film crew, they did it anyway. As a result, the family of the deceased young assistant camera person was able to get jury verdicts from CSX for...

I had an '83. The 16 feet refers to the gunnel length. With a reasonable payload, probably the best rowing fiberglass boat all time. FYI, it's not a highside.

I showed my Colorado born and raised buddy this: https://www.rossreels.com/animas-5-6-reel-coors-banquet.html He ordered it without batting an eye.🤣

That screams pre spawn lake trout!

That salmonfly is badass!

+1 on Korkers. Best wading boots ever!

Microspey = doesn't work in the wind!🤣 Grain weight is so subjective and finding the right line can be a bit of a challenge. I think a lot of it has to do with the taper of the line, and the casters technique. I have quite a few "orphaned" lines that just didn't work out, but they are very...

After years of tying on a number of different tubes, brass, copper, aluminum, and plastic, I've settled on Pro Sportsfisher plain plastic tubing. The Regal mandrels work very well with their tubing. I tied on a Renzetti tube vise for a long time, and the Regal is far superior. I don't tie in...

I bought one of these a couple of years ago and haven't looked back.

I have a bunch of 2-piece rods from the 80s and 90s, and while I guess I prefer the simplicity of 2-piece rods, I really like the modern graphite of my 4-piece rods. The modern ferrules are so much superior to the old ferrules that it seems when I'm fishing and old 2-piece, I find myself...

Nice ear!
