I have been using Togen’s “Chirony Skin” and recently “Buzzer Wrap” both with good results. It comes in lots of colors.

Back in around 2006 I stayed at the Gamboa Rainforest Resort, which is near the town of Gamboa that was built to house canal zone workers on the Panama Canal. My wife and I went out with a local guide and fished on Lake Gatun and/or the Panama Canal. The guide was more of a conventional...

I lived in the Bay Roc apartments on Lake Oswego for a few years in the late 90's. They had a swimming dock that accessed the lake and I used to fish off of it quite a bit in the summer after work. The fishing was pretty good. I would typically catch a mixed bag of bluegill, crappie, perch, and...

I just received the tippet I ordered, and the product looks as advertised, but it was shipped from an individual's address in Chubbuck Idaho. So I guess they don't have a shop in San Francisco any longer? Maybe online only now, homebased? Either way I can't complain about $3 spools of...

The Regal Medallion with two sets of jaws, regular and big game, covers all of my needs.

This pattern got my mind working too. I tied up a couple with foam on the back two sections and a tungsten bead on the front. One is a straight shank and one is a jig shank. Made a mess, but I think these will swim well!

Where did you purchase this?

Sierra Trading post is selling TFO Pro II 9' 6wt rods for $99 right now. That would do everything you are asking, especially if you are serious about dabbling with smaller steelhead.

Still available. Soflodgerick never came through.

No worries, I understand you have a challenging position moderating the discussions on the forum.

Things must have gotten out of hand after I went to bed last night. I didn't think my post was that out of line. Just expressing irritation for hotspotting. First time I've ever been censored on a forum. I will leave it at I don't have great feelings about this event.

Loop Opti Speed Runner super large arbor fly reel. It has been used but is in good condition. It has a few light scratches as can be seen in the photos. This reel has a 5" spool diameter resulting in faster line pick-up than almost any other reel ever marketed and has a strong smooth drag. A...

I have both the Douglas Sky and the Sky G in 6wt and I like them both. They are both fairly fast rods but smooth with feel. They remind me a lot of the Hardy Zenith. For all I know they might come from the same factory in Korea as the Hardy's.... I think the Sky G maybe feels a little lighter in...

The guides called them grouper when we caught them down there, but I don't know if that's really what they are.

They are size 16 scud hooks.

I have been playing around with furled. Bloodworm patterns.

What area are you staying in? If closer to Cancun you can fish Isla Blanca to the north. Guides will often pick you up at your hotel or have you taxi to a meeting point. If staying to the south of Playa del Carmen you can do a day trip to Ascension Bay (Yellow Dog can set this up). Or take the...
