My first saltwater rod was a 9’6 6wt Vice. I don’t know if it’s the extra 6 inches but it felt very stiff, heavy, and tiring to cast. Once I got my second rod (9’ 7wt Ion XL), I never fished it again.

My current Coho rod is a 9' 7wt TFO Blitz that I'm absolutely in love with. If you can get over the bright green exterior, it is light in the hand, fast, and I was confidently casting 95% of my SA Titan 7wt Int/3/5 (before it disintegrated). I can also vouch for TFO's warranty as I broke the...

1/2 this morning. First fish took off and spit the hook mid jump, probably a 4-5lber. I saw this little buck zoom in and nab my fly 10’ from my rod tip. Had a very large herring or possibly small salmon in its stomach.

2/3 in about 3 hours of fishing this morning. Lost one that grabbed my fly at my rod tip while I was scratching my nose 🤣 fought him for a minute or so but he popped off at the beach. Had another good follow and a couple missed bites. The bigger fish I landed must of escaped a sea lion pretty...

Went 1/1 during a short pre work session this morning. Had another bigger fish jump 20ft to my left then come in and circle/tail whip my fly before swimming off.

Days like that you’ll remember for months! I have had a few coho days similar to that that are burned into my memory. Congratulations!

Well I sent a email to Scientific Anglers to see if they will warranty my line, doubting they will as I’ve owned it for more then a year but never hurts to ask🤷‍♂️ I’ve been eyeing this line in the Fast Int/S3 for about a year now and I found it in a few fly shops online for a little under $100...

How long has the OBS lasted you? With the rate I'm going through lines I could see myself tossing an OBS into the mix

Interesting! Good to know, thank you. I wouldn't mind having faster sinking line for a few beaches I fish. But I'm probably just going to get another Titan and pray :ROFLMAO:

So I was correct about my SA Titan int-3-5. The area with the fine cracks has started to disintegrate, leaving some pretty big gaps with no coating. I’m going to try to keep fishing it until the end of the month because it casts so damn nice and is catching me a good amount of fish. Before I get...

1/3 today, Pretty puzzled on how I lost the first two fish. Had both of them on the reel and had tension and they just popped off. My luck has been pretty good with landing my hookups this season so I figured a day like this would happen soon. The first one was a nice 6-7lb hatchery that I got a...

1/1 Today, within 30 minutes of getting to the beach I had two 4-6lb coho follow my fly in at the same time, both circling around it before swimming off. I stuck this 25” hen about 20ft in front of me and I’m amazed it stayed hooked. She jumped 3-4 times and swam straight at me twice. About 20...

Fished for about 4-5 hours this morning across 3 different beaches. Fished the first beach for about 2-3 hours and only saw one keeper sized coho caught (3-4lbs) among about 10-15 anglers. Lots of 2-4” herring hanging around. Was pretty surprised at how slow it was. I’m hoping the coho come in...

I had major durability issues with both the Cortland Compact type 3 lines I had. Absolutely beautifully casting line but each one of them lasted me about two weeks. I've been fishing the SA Titan Int/3/5 and the SA Stillwater Seamless Density 1/3. I find I can cast the Titan a bit further then...

Something a little more natural for Coho

1/1 this morning, landed one very fat wild coho probably around 7lbs. Great fight on the 6wt. Had another really strong bite and had a 3-5lb fish follow my fly all the way up before taking a swipe at it and missing. Always gets the adrenaline going:)

2/2 this morning, got my limit in an hour and a half. Completely exploded my new TFO Blitz landing the top fish (most likely user error) so I ran back to my car, grabbed the backup and caught the bottom one 😁. Didn’t see any other fish caught on the beach.

I would love to purchase that Phillipson but I’m across the water from you and I’m not planning any trips over there anytime soon. If you would consider shipping it let me know! If not, no worries! 🙂

0/0 at area 9 this morning. Figured I’d get up early and fish the incoming but I failed to remember that it was labor day weekend. I’ve never seen so many people on that beach, and the incoming tide and fairly consistent pink action didn't help anything. On the plus side there was tons of bait...
