This is a really nice frame. I cherish it but want to still use it. I bought it in the Catskills probably from Harry Darbee. I don't want to cover it up. Thank you all for your replies. RR

Hello, I want to replace the trout bag on my net. I bought this net from "Guy Rich" about 30+ years ago. I bought a "Catch and Release" type replacement bag and while it's true that I have been a...

Thanks eponymous, I've been reading about Bass Lakes near Mickeyland. I would like to try redfish, snook, tarpon if possible. Thanks again for your response. RR
DShock, I have to admit that when I first read your response I thought you were pulling my fin. I pictured myself trolling from the monorail, foul hooking robotic hippos. I checked it out however,...
Thanks SKIBUM, I'll check it out. RR :lol:
Thanks Lucky, I'll check it out. RR
Let he who has not goofed cast the first nerf ball!
Hello, I'll be in Orlando in early June (2007). What are the fly-fishing opportunities in the area? Also, is there a guide service that would pick me up at Disneyworld and bring me back to where we...
Hello, I'll be in D'world in eartly June. What are some of the fly-fishing opportunities around Orlando? Also, are there guiding services that provide transportation to and from the D'world motels?...
The Owhyhee (in nearby Oregon) is a tailwater stream rich in vegatation that reminds me of Big Spring in State College, PA. You might really enjoy this gem. RR
Hey Ol'Bill, Like the old song goes "Old age won't kill you but it slows you down...". There are a few knot tying tools on the market but I have no experience with any of them. I would like to...
Hey Benjo, rest that ankle now and soak it in water. A pontoon boat will be good therepy. Stick a couple of paint stirrer sticks down your Munster boot. Tight lines. RR
howdy boys and girls, has anyone heard of this fly? rr
I used to have a beetle with a radio that would not shut off when the car was turned off. It ran my battery down after about 10 hours of Atlantic Salmon fishing on a North Shore Gaspe River. I was by...
At the risk of ticking off all of you that convinced yourself that spending $600, $700, $800 and up on a glass (oops! I mean graphite) rod, why not save for a bit longer and buy a bamboo? The only...
We have a Sweet William in bloom in front of the house and spring peepers chirping. And, I might have heard a turkey gobble last weekend on the Owyhee. Now if I can just smell the Cottonwoods in...
Hi Flying, I think that you will find some of the patterns RS Jones is writing about in "The Art of tying the wet-fly" by Jim Leisering. Happy tying, RR
Well there you go. Thanks, for the info. RR
I was looking at some of the Previous Flies and came across the term cross-cut rabbit. I don't use a lot of strips of fur but I liked the leech-mouse. Is cross-cut hide different from cutting a thin...
Lots of good info on the Redingtons. I don't know anything about them but I was thinking about the 2pc 10ft for a 7 wgt as a smallmouth/ largemouth rod. Your replies will allow me to scrutinize the...
I'll bet that Mike Cummins at the Red Shed Fly Shop would know for sure. I think I remember him saying he was buying some the TRA close-out stuff. You can reach him at:...
Wal-mart or Madame K's, Scientific Angler, 9 ft. 5-6 wgt or 7-8wgt same length, for $19.95. I use the 5-6 wgt as my night rod. If I fall on it and it breaks, oh well. Now I need to find a really...
Thanks for your responses. Tim, I have been trimming my barbs for 30 + years. Poop-bah, I know that dog but I'm talking about 2 rods in and out of the carrier 10+ times a day while on my float tube....
