Should have the 696 sometime this coming week . We are headed up to the Madison the following week , will give a shot up there to see how I like it . I am looking forward to using it on our April trip to the Bighorn . Last year the first day I fished a 5 weight on the Bighorn , a couple fish...

The VXP is unrepairable , they don't have the repair parts . Got a new Sonic coming . The nice thing is I have my choice of any Sonic I wanted . I thought you got what you sent in ,or something comparable , not the case if it's a different model rod . Anyway being a bit 5 weight poor ,not really...

He doesn’t care , you see the dog toys scattered by the friends dog , mine could care less . He doesn’t worry about his food or anything, he’s pretty mellow . That dog takes his bed , he goes elsewhere. They get along great , they play , the friends dog is pretty aggressive, if he gets too...

Friends dog got the dog bed , ours got the couch in the fifth wheel on our fishing trip last week in Wyoming.

A couple broken tips ,all I can say is being stupid . My favorite rod a Sage XP 6 weight a two piece , far from the original . First time broken tip ,off to Sage for a new tip , second time set my pontoon battery on it ,ya stupid , off to Sage for repair . It was broke in half in the top...

I can see your frustration being local ,but I found the process pretty simple being hundreds of miles away . Talking to them on the phone ,they were very cordial ,and helpful as far as what is going to happen , in my case it's most likely going to be a different rod ,but either way I am okay...

Doesn't sound like too bad of turnaround this time of year . It's been two weeks so far with me , I would think if it's a different rod I'd get it shipped not long after they look at my rod ,and determine it can't be fixed , no parts . I wish it would be $70 ,but my rod being older is $195 .

Sent a sage rod in for repair on 813/25. Got a email on 8/20/25 confirming they received the rod , saying they will contact me when the rod has been looked at , thats been a week , no word yet . When I talked to them on the phone ,and told them where it was broke in the butt section , most...

Although it feels pretty unnatural , after awhile doing a lot of casting ,I'll switch hands casting, I can cast with my right , give my left a rest.

I too am pretty ingrained being left handed , but there is two things, one is I reel right handed . It just seems natural to cast left handed being left handed , and wanting the rod in my left hand fight a fish . But what does feel awkward is stripping in line with my right hand , I do it ...

My condolences.

Where have you been on baseball, do you not know the Little League World Series is going , and you guys are waisting your time on preseason football those kids are more entertaining then the NFL ,and MLB . That or try some WNBA . :D

Hoping the chemo goes well , and you get these trips in . It something my son ,and I talk about , it reminds us to do these things together .

The whole deal was the British were taking such a beating , the US took over the daylight bombing , and the British did the nighttime . Yes we took a beating also . From what I know about the ball turret gunner ,his live expectancy was 1-2 missions . From the stories my uncle told about the...

I don't know the exact time he was in England during his 25 missions , my cousin would know . . He was an amazing man , well educated after the war ,was a high school band leader ,and teacher in El Cajon ,Ca. . Yes was in very good shape ,developed dementia the last 2-3 years of his life . But...

The first photo his him top left leaning out of the plane , bottom photo is him in the bottom right . I am not sure which crew was lost , as said in previous post except for three of them , my uncle being one of them . Second photo the lady leaning behind him , was a tour director ,and wanting...

That brings back some memories of my uncle that passed away at 100 in 2023 , flew his 25 missions during WW2 in a B-17 . He was a small guy ,he was a ball turret gunner. His bomb group was the 390th . They were stationed in England ,bombing mostly Munster, Germany . They were shot down with his...

I bought a pair of clic it's years ago before I retired for work ,computer etc. Left them in my desk otherwise . I can't guess how many pairs of cheap readers I have bought over the years , mostly those three packs from Costco , they fall apart just as fast as the dollar ones . I'm guessing ,but...

I have worn sunglasses with bifocals for years ,and just never noticed anything while wading or walking . Apparently I'm just looking over the bifocals when looking down or whatever . I have to make an effort to look down enough to use the bifocals to tie on a fly . My vision is okay at...
