This. Missed my only opportunity Sunday as a nice fish hit mine the second it landed and I still had some slack. Was hoping the hook was sharp enough after filing it. Nah.
I ran into a 10' foot version of the "hero" when I was on a Pike trip overseas and liked it quite a bit, though the 9' footer agreed with me more. Has anyone here used them and have opinions to share? I'm conscious that I'm probably susceptible to the "story" and branding, but am considering the...
Purple hazes and general attractor patterns should crush in September once nights get cool. Drop something small off the back and enjoy.
Also, how "upper"? If you're talking paved road still above Avery, then I'd go with a 5 wt. I haven't gone much further than where it hits dirt, so can't...
Thought I'd circle back and let folks know how things are shaping up. Two factors that changed travel plans 1) We decided to cut back some countries a bit ... RIP Scandinavia and 2) We couldn't find any lodging on Isle of Skye (whoops to booking this portion a bit late).

It depends on how accessible things would be generally. If I only had one day to get out, I'd probably look toward a guided option, but otherwise I skew DIY.
Great call. This sounds silly, but I'm most interested in the vibes / scenery / wet lines. Would it be great to lip something in the old country? Totally. But it isn't required by any means. It will be quiet time away from the fam (don't tell them I wrote that part).
Hey y'all. Haven't posted much over here, but was semi-active in prior years over in the bad place. Realize this may be a bit of a shot in the dark, but my wife has a bit of a unique opportunity for a work sabbatical this summer and we are planning a six week trip across UK - > Ireland - >...
