    Lines for Sage 490LL

    On my 389 LL Graphite III I have only used two lines over 20+ years I have used the Cortland 444 Peach and few years ago I bought a Rio Gold Perception Trout. Both have been good but the Peach is buttery smooth. I’ll go back to the peach when the time comes for a new line. But then again they...

    Nothing to boast about but there has been a day or two where I tied more wind knots than all other knots combined .

    Recommendation for 7 wt sink tip

    Have little knowledge on some of fly lines mentioned and probably another dozen out there I don’t know about.. But your leader length will be key. Keep it in the 3-4’ arena to get that fly down quick. I’ve seen people fishing sink tip lines with 9-10’ leaders.

    Recommendation for 7 wt sink tip

    I’ve always done fine with a 12-15 foot sink tip III line. I know some like a sink tip 6. Guess depends on the fly too. Swing heavy cone head or other heavy type flies I think the iii will work fine. If throwing lighter feathers than maybe a 6. I’ll use poly sink tips too on 6 weight...

    OFFICIAL 2026 NFL SEASON DISCUSSION

    I would like the Chargers chances a lot better if Herbert could get away from Beer. I call it an unwanted distraction. We'll see if he can limit his intake.

    I truly don't understand the physics of fly line backlashes

    I have dealt with it a handful of times. I have always questioned how did this shit-mess happen? I’m careful about retrieving my line to the reel. Sometimes I can get it resolved quickly and other times I have had to take the spool off and fart around with it for double digit minutes and...

    Waders - The awesome, the bad, the leaky

    I have only had Orvis and Patagonia. My Orvis clearwaters purchased back in early 2000’s lasted me 10+ years. Simple but tough. Did a lot of bushwhacking with them and practically lived in them for 10 days in Alaska, besides many Puget Sound beach and Oregonian outings. I currently have the...

    Rain

    That was around 630am in the north end at home. Noticeable smell of camp fire. Don’t notice it in downtown Seattle. Air quality is registering good. 👍

    Sage RPL 4 WT Blank

    As Stonedfish says ^. Also based on your zip …. Northern Idaho? If you find yourself in Spokane check out 2nd hand stores. In addition to yard and estate sales. Might not find blanks but might find a 4wt RPL cheaper than a blank. I have found two prizes. Many years ago I was able to buy...
