I had a Renzetti Traveler and sold it because I needed money at the time. When it came time to repurchase the Renzetti (was my plan), I saw the Peak, tied on it and fell in love with it. That was 4...

X2... The Frequent Flyers arent bad sticks and wont break the bank either.
Thats about what it looks like here on the west end of the Great Lakes Phillip, a few cohos hanging around too.
Pretty good numbers in all the streams flowing into Lake Michigan on the WI side. All are wading friendly.

Nicely done Scott! Its a great fly too. I used to tie a variation with a squirrel wing. For some reason I got away from it. Thanks for reminding me of an old friend as well!
8'6" 5 weight midflex Orvis Helios2, should be here in a week or so, then I just sit here and look at it all winter.... And yep, I did cast one of the demo rods. Just awesome!
Gadzooks! I gotta get to tying. I have tied maybe a dozen flies since I got my new desk in late September. This is about the neatest you will ever see it again...

I think the Superfine Touch is a better dry fly rod. And for slightly less money at retail than the ZXL is on close out, my choice would be easy. Of course opinions are, well we know, everyone has...

You know, I would still end up tying flies.
I have a Hydros 3D bass line, I like it a lot. No problems as far as sticky coating, keeping it clean or anything. The taper is very front heavy (its a bass line after all) and does a nice job...

I'm pretty sure that Clarks was one of those Yuku message boards. A lot of them jumped ship. I know that Ultralight Fly Fishing and the fiberglass one changed locations as well.
Sorry I can't help you on the rod, I didn't even know Airflo sold rods. I did however google it, what a cool idea! A little 6 weight with downsized grip for small hands. Cool! You have me thinking now
