Great clip! Thanks for sharing.

So glad to hear that you came out of this ok. Very scary experience I'm sure. Take care.

Interesting thread here. I hadn't heard about the Zhu rods and at the price it might be a perfect way to get my feet wet. Anyone have any experience with the 7'0" 4wt? Also, has anyone tried the...

Yup, Cabelas Three Forks 7'6" 3wt. A great bargain and great fun for around $50.

I'm hoping to make it up to the CW Fish-in this year. Anybody else from Oregon headed that way who might be interested in sharing a ride?

Dean

Looks like great trip that will leave both of you with a ton of memories to share in the future. Enjoyed the pictures.

Dean

Red and green ... sounds like Christmas colors to me. That reel will look great on a "boo" rod.

I'm thinking about going to the Idaho Fish-in this September and I'm wondering if anyone from Oregon might be interested in sharing a ride. I wouldn't mind adding some other destination to the trip...

A hearty AMEN!

Wish I could join Cary. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
