    Nextcast Core 30

    Just FYI - the Nextcast Core 30 is a longer belly Skagit line. With tips your total casting length is 40-45', which for me is a lot more enjoyable to cast with 14' + rods. I really like the Airflo Rage, but only for polyleaders (it's a Scandi line, not Skagit). It's my summer go to line...

    Streamlining my boat options - NRS Slipstream 96??

    Agree on the Cataract KBOs - I have the MiniMag blades on mine and have been very happy with them on my framed 10.5' raft. Never heard anyone warning they might break on a framed boat and have had plenty of leverage when I needed to pull hard to avoid a rootwad or other river obstruction. Not...

    Fly Tying Expo; Albany, OR. March 8 & 9?

    I'll be there wandering around enjoying all the creative tying when I'm not supporting in one of the booths. Never been before, but it sounds like an awesome show!

    Nextcast Core 30

    Ditto what happened to me . . . guessing your 600gr F1 will be back in stock late January per what Simon told me.

    The Fly Fisher in Olympia Is No More

    Mike @ Lost Creek has a great selection of flytying materials. Like Waters West, he's picky about what he stocks. @Stonefish, I remember last time I was there looking at some bucktails in his shop and marvelling at the length and taper of the hair. And Spawn Fly Fish - I've bought a bunch...

    Do you participate? - WDFW/ODFW

    Curt, you and Steve were amoung the leaders of an outstanding example of when a group of anglers band together and initiate some positive change in fisheries management. Every time Facebook reminds me of our OccupySkagit protests at Howard Miller I smile.

    Do you participate? - WDFW/ODFW

    I've continued to participate since my first experience in Olympia testifying before the Commission in support of mandatory wild Steelhead release statewide back in 2000. I have low expectations that my participation actually moves the needle but will continue because the alternative is to give...

    EDC…

    Probably a good idea - your EDC is a flyfishing klepto's dream. 😄

    Streamlining my boat options - NRS Slipstream 96??

    Hey Creatch'r, I have what Catchercraft (RIP) used to call the SeaRun Bull. Basically a Maxxon 10.5' raft with a nice frame with anchor, rod holders, standup bar etc. The selling feature for me was very stable but I could fit it inflated into the bed of my pickup. Wanted it for similar rough...

    Nextcast Core 30

    Who did you order it from? I just ordered one from Nextcast and got a reply that the F1 is backordered until late January.
