I received notice from Wholesale Fly Company last year that they were quitting the business. It looks like someone else has taken over the operation. That is good news. I like their tungsten beads in addition to hooks.

+1 for Pirateship.

Not a house brand, but pretty inexpensive, sometimes on sale for $2 for a pack of 25 hooks. Green Caddis Outfitters elite series barbless have been pretty good for trout flies. The only problem is that they run out of stock on the popular sizes.

You see quite a few small blue fin trevally (and small GTs) while wading for bonefish, and they are often circling the tailing trigger fish picking up scraps. They can be aggressive and will take bonefish flies stripped fast. But I would say that compared to years past I didn't catch as many...

I just returned from Christmas Island. We stayed at the Villages as we have for many years. My first time back since Covid. In my opinion the fishing is as good or better than before for bonefish, the triggers seem a little less spooky, but are still tough, and the GT's seem to be a little less...

This is good advice. I would also throw in Hardy Zenith 5wt.

We will just have to agree to disagree on this one. If you don't think you did anything wrong by exploiting an obvious glitch in their online ordering system and then publicizing it on the forum for others to exploit, well, we were raised with different values. Maybe it's technically not the...

Really? Your karma points are going deep into the negative....... This is no different than stealing.

Price drop to $450

Thanks for catching that. I cut and paste from another site and the price didn't transfer... I added it. They are a cool color, and a cool reel, and I landed quite a few bonefish and salmon using this reel when I first got it. Every time I pull it out of the bin it sits in, I think to myself...

SOLD - Redington Brakewater 7/8 fly reel spooled with an older saltwater 8wt line. This reel has been collecting dust and needs a new home. The paint on the logo and reel size indication area has rubbed off a little (which was common on these reels), but it does not affect performance. It has a...

Sold - Sage Xi2 8wt Fly Rod with original sock and tube. I am original owner and have taken good care of this rod. There is the usual soiling on the cork but no blemishes to the blank that I can see. Asking $350 including shipping to the lower 48. PayPal goods and services preferred. I cover the...

Probably my last venture to an alpine lake for the year. Then upper lake had 3 inches of snow on the trail on the way in. We probably wouldn't have been able to find the spur if it wasn't for All Trails and GPS. Unfortunately, it didn't appear to hold any fish this year. But the lower lake gave...

I do this except I use lower cost fluorocarbon leader material (from the hardware store - Seaguar Blue/Berkely Vanish) instead of Maxima to run to the 3x tippet. I don't know if it makes a difference, but it gives me more confidence believing that fluorocarbon sinks better than mono....

I am a fan of water smokers too. Probably blasphemous amoung the hard core crowd, but pretty hard to screw up something that steams and smokes at the same time. Our Thanksgiving Turkey comes out perfect every year…… pretty good for ribs and game birds too. Probably more of a cooker than a true...

Maybe. What are you thinking? Perhaps we take it to PM to discuss?

Most are still high but clearing. The top of whisky rock is visible on the Methow. I think most people are still going to be waiting a couple more weeks.

Long Shot, but I am looking for a trailer to haul my 12' raft and/or 12' john boat. Anyone have one they are no longer using?
