Hi Wild One,

On the Cabelas website they mention that the leaders come in tippet sizes from 3X to 6X (mine are all 5X tippets for my 4-5-6 trout rods) but there's no mention of line size.

My...

Hey Doug,

Thanks for the classy reply.

Hi,

Just a quick note to say that I'd appreciate a bit more "specifcity" in the Subject-Lines on this forum ... please.

The simple truth is that our posts are often made at the end of the day...

Mr. Moose,

You, sir, are prescient.

As I was reading your post my right hand was (naturally) on The Mouse and my left (damaged) paw was reaching for a cold can of Black Label.

Only minutes...

My goodness, what have I started? :?

Spent 10 hours yesterday wade-fishing a remote section of the river ... each of us got some (two or three) nice rainbows and cut-throats on Green Drakes or their variations.

Took my first wet-rock...

Interesting thread ... you gotta love the Internet for getting this imfo out to the public. Unfortunately, there'll always be people who don't discover this until it's too late, and rascals like this...

Howdy,

The re-connectable Scientific Anglers L2L leaders provide the most subtle (and strong) little bump imaginable. And then you'll know (at least) that the problem is style/technique related...

Hi guys,

I totally agree. I bought about a dozen of them via mail-order from Cabelas just before I moved out to SW Alberta this spring, and I couldn't be happier. I also got some with the new...

Hi guys,

Warm sun, chinook wind, clear water at the right height ... and I got skunked.

I only met two other guys (local) in the four hours that I was there, and they were really helpful ......

Pete,

Good to hear you so pumped.

I gotta share ... I just got a retirement place/job (with a great landlord)on an honest-to-God wilderness 3000 acre ranch on the east slope of the Livingstone...

Hi Doug,

Billy Connoly? I don't think so.

I just checked ... you gotta love Google ...

Hey there Fellow Countryman,

Do you remember that Monty Python skit with two old codgers competing with each other to compare the difficulties they went through in the old days?

It was...

That's only the first half of the joke.

The next day the duck returns and walks up to the counter and says,"I'd like to purchase one condom."

The all-knowing pharmacist puts one on the counter,...

Haven't had a chance to actually use them yet ... still serious winter here in Manitoba!

Just curious why nobody's mentioned Scientific Anglers L2L connectors ... now reconnectable ... I just bought a few ... seems elegant and simple. Too new to have been tested-and-proven?

Hi Dudley,

Your recommendation to Gramps might be a good one, along with a Ty-Rite to finish the actual knot.

I'd like to apologize for my snotty comment earlier in this thread ... the BB...

Hi Ducksterman,

Yup ... me too ... just now. Let's substitute ... Darryl Hannah ... lives in the boonies ... very Green ... probably knows how to shoot and fly-fish.

Yes ... a much better...

Dudley,

I'm with Gramps on this one ...

Hey ... walk a mile in our shoes ... put on a SCUBA mask ... smear it with Vaseline ... pluck a 20 cm strand of blonde hair from Brittney Spears'...

Hi Pete,

I bought the nice brass cinch-tier, but found that I was still fumbling around ... I am really challenged when it comes to manual dexterity.

So I bought a Ty-rite, and for me it...

Hey guys,

Yup ... I was really dumb here. Pete was doing me a favour by getting some stuff (way overpriced ... in the cold dawn light ... totally my fault) and passing it along to me.

Hi guys,

I've been on here for about a year now, and I am just dying to share some good shipping stories ... wonderful ones (to which I'm sure you'll contribute) and some other really awful ones...

Hi guys,

I spend a lot of time (in occasionally rough water) alone in a Whitehall 14 rowboat which I've had for seven years.
