Lee,
I don't use "bulk" thread but I am assuming that if you do you have to spool it onto smaller spools whatever bobbin you use as
I've never seen a bobbin that would accept anything larger...
I've owned and used the two auto bobbins that I know of. The first required winding thread onto a special bobbin then placing it into the frame of the tool (making sure that it is placed in the...

I have a very fast, tip action Gatti rod that is rated for 6 or 7 wt lines. I plan to use it in salt water targeting schoolie stripers and blues. Which of the rated (intermediate sink) lines should I...
Any thoughts on 6/7wt Bauer Reels for use in the salt. I have a 3pc, 9ft, tip action, 6/7wt Gatti Rod that I will be casting a 6WF line with as large a fly as it will cast at schoolie stripers.

J.C.,
You're going to have to start a kayak fishing forum on this board. It's getting big.

Jim,
There are opportunities like false albies and blue fin tuna that present themselves suddenly and just as quickly disappear. Chasing them with a kayak so you can make a "short" cast to them...
BFR,
Some thoughts:
I don't have nearly as much leverage when sitting on a yak with my legs straight out in front of me as when I'm standing, therefore I can't cast nearly as far sitting in a...
BigFlatBrook,
Kayak fishing is a hoot!! especially in the salt. Welcome to the "Dark Side".
Before you buy a kayak know what you want to do with it because that will determine what kind of yak...
Reg,
I havn't used it but I have been told that U-40 Perma Gloss by Trondak is an excelent alternative for epoxy. It is durable, flexable and won't yellow but requires several coats to build up a...
Gentlemen,
Thanks for all your replys they are all most welcome. JC, I agree with you that this rod, or any rod, is too important to build wrong. I did contact Gatti USA and had a very plesant...
Buzz,
Its a Gatti, and both my Gatti's have spines. My 2wt is the best fishing, most fun rod that I have so I bought the blank in 6/7 wt tip action for salt water.
Thanks for the reply.

I have a rather expensive Italian 3pc blank with 2 spines in each section, they are 180 degrees apart and equal in intensity. I am about to put the guides on the blank but don't know where to place...
Old Geezer,
If you are "old", as I am, it is important to consider the fact that it is a lot easier to get on and off a sit on top (SOT) kayak than it is to get in and out of a sit in kayak...

Think about a Sit On Top (SOT) yak. It's a bunch easier to get on and off than it is to get in and out. I have a SOT it's easy for me(210 lbs 62 years) to get on and off in water that's up to 2 ft...
My Nor-vise is a wonderful thing!! I love it. You gotta get one.
I bought the midge jaws very shortly after the inital purchase and would suggest that you do the same. I found that I was used to the...
smgfish,
Your wife took a class. Go to the Becks store, talk to Kathy about her casting ability and purchase the rod that she recomends. You can't go wrong, your off the hook, your wife is being...

My home is Massena N.Y. on the StLawrence river, any more upstate and you would be in Canada.

Check with the airline, it seems that they are all different. Those kind of surprises aren't usually good ones.
