    Curious. Best integrated spey line?

    The ONLY reason to chop the running line and back taper is to add a mono running line, otherwise don't fuck with it. They cast great as an integrated as is.

    Curious. Best integrated spey line?

    I love the Gaelforce Equalizer Switch and Short Spey line for rods under 12 feet. For rods 12 to 13 feet the Gaelforce Equalizer Integrated Shooting Head would be my choice for a true integrated Scandi. Rods in the 13 to 14 foot range, I fish a Gaelforce Equalizer 54 foot Spey line. For rods...

    Short Belly lines with changeable tips

    The EMT is pretty much a scandi taper, so a long leader or a poly will improve your casting with the floating tip.

    Anyone doing sous vide smoked ribs?

    I've been doing ribs carnitas style lately. Season ribs and pressure cook for 45 minutes in OJ. Finish on grill for 15 minutes while thickening sauce with corn starch. Quick, tender, and way better than traditional 3-2-1 ribs. Want some smokey flavor, add some chopped chipotles in adobo to...

    The floating and intermediate tips cast and fish real nice for summer. I tend to overcomplicate stuff, but in reality, I could get away fishing the EMT and the EEMT year round, and be happy.

    Arizona?

    The best fly-fishing for stripers is done in the late summer and early fall when the are aggressively feeding on shad in boils. It's surface action hunting and fishing. You pretty much need a boat to chase the boils around. Nothing fancy, I bet it would be very doable on even a paddle board...
