    This summer is very different for some reason

    The seasons seem a month early, and it’s not been an overly hot summer so far in the Willamette Valley. Very dry winter for sure… I suspect it’s going to a barn burner of a winter. Let’s hope so… Lots of rain and valley snow. 😎

    How do you secure bead chain "eyes" or lead barbells eyes to a hook shank?

    Thread base down, back to middle. Set eye and figure eight from the get go. About 6 - 8 times Then stabilize with the horizontal wraps… over shank/under eye.

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