We were owned by Max, a black lab mix for 15 1/2 yrs. near the end he was deaf, & mostly blind but still a bundle of love. When he had a stroke & I had to put him down it was one of the most trying ...
I think that all the previous answers missed the main question. Will this job cut into your fishing time?????
On a serious note if you want it go for it. If they were that happy with the other guy...
Whatever. I always compared it to the crack of a whip where the tip goes supersonic. I guess it's all relative because the fly usually goes off on it's own unattached.
Not as bad as bees in the neck just over the collar. I agree a fly must be moving over 60mph especially on a powered fwd. cast. It's not relevant to the discussion,but that dreaded snap on your...
Congrats on making it to your retirement. May you enjoy many years. I went out 2 years ago & have no regrets. I 'm working on my bucket list of fishing trips now & so far I did Patagonia for 2...

I thought braided leaders were hollow,with a space to trap water in the center, & Furled leaders are solid wrapped tight.

Eric, Best wishes & prayers from NJ for you & your son. I just got back on line or I would have responded sooner,,,,,
I have a 30" rolling duffle & I put my 4 pc rods in the bottom of that along with my flies tools etc. I've carried longer rods in tubes & once they took the longer cases at the gate & put them in the...
Years ago when my son was about 12 yrs. old we camped on the side of a river on opening day. NJ has one of those no fishing till 8 AM rules so my son went out about 7:30 to a good spot not over his...
Good Story...
You have to be careful with bats though. a few years ago a acquaintance was fishing late in the evening in maine & he felt something on the end of his line & stripped it in. He...
