Last year I went to their store in Cody, WY. Nothin' but crap! Worse than Big 5

You had me at "carp fishing you're going in harm's way"

My new Simms waders were oozing water from the get go. They patched them for me but IMHO Simms has a manufacturing problem. /threadhijack

Jeez that's a very kind offer. If my fishin' buddy decides to try this I will reach out to you, but for now you should hang on to it. Thank you all for your advice too!

An elder friend of mine is outfitting a used DB he bought and is considering an extra pulley on his anchor for ease of lifting. Seems like these double ropes want to twist and jam. Will be used in rivers and some mild lake fishing too. Thoughts? PS. I searched but didn't find a thread on this...

Just when I finally learned to slow down on the hook-set...she went and died on us 🧐 Now you have to say God save the King PS: thnx for the gorgeous pics

Point Wilson was perfect yesterday, except for fish. Gorgeous day and not too much wind. Some friendly gearchuckers with advice for the fly flinger too. What a wonderful park! I fished 2-3 hours without seeing anything caught and no jumpers.

You guys are awesome. I'm feeling inspired!

Well dang it, not looking good for shore fishing. The creel reports show some pinks at the Ediz Hook ramp but none further east. Ediz doesn't look very wade friendly at high tide. The very tip is not accessible due to CG Airstation? Does it make sense to go to Point Wilson with no pinks...

Cool looking beetle too (y)

I could go for some albie sashimi right now 😋

So I looked at the tide tables and they are rather odd. I've never seen a tide chart like these with no second low tide. There is low in the morning, it comes up in the afternoon...and just keeps going up??!! Thanks a lot Obama!

I will be in PA this coming weekend and can carve out one day for a fishing adventure. Last year I fished the Bogey (and got one chinook) but this year I want to try for humpies. Doesn't sound like the millions have really arrived, but I plan to beach fish at Point Wilson or No Point. Since...

I measure out 18 inches, make a line, then mark it "20" Viola! I catch bigger fish this way

I have several Airflo sinking lines and really appreciate the non-stretch. Especially for slow presentation like with a hover line. My type 7 is the best casting fast sink line I have ever owned. Easy to cast, minimal tangles and gets down and stays down. I like 'em!

My buddy moors his boat at Depoe Bay and takes me and my brother out for rockfish on the fly. The whole experience of being in the ocean and going out thru the narrows at Depoe Bay is a kick. Just like last year, it was foggy, but not too windy, and the seas were manageable. I fished from the...

Yes, very observant of you. Phil twists the tail maribou into a rope then adds a drop of resin. Watch the end of the Lion's Mane vid. He sez it gives the tail another pivot point...but it also keeps the 'bou fibers together like a skinny nymph tail instead of all waving around seperately. Cheers

My dry damsel game is weak. I tried one several times to active fish but nada :confused: Agree on the skinny ties and not too big either. For a nymph I like this Phil's Lion's Mane pattern or I combine it with an articulated wiggle tail.

When you see these... Use this... To catch these...

That'll never work... ...unless you're a stone cold fish master 😉
