I just looked up the exhibitor list for the show and it does not look promising. It looks like there are going to be a lot of outfitters there again. Darn.
The url for the exhibitor...

You win! :)
I am going to look in to getting a canoe. After thinking about it and doing some more research, getting a canoe seems like the best choice for me. Plus, it will be very easy to haul in...
I forgot to mention that I will primarily using this on small to medium sized lakes lakes. I will be fly fishing from it, so it needs to have good initial stability.
I found a picture of the...
Since it is winter time, I figured it is time to start looking for a new boat to fish from. Right now I have a float tube and a pontoon boat but my girlfriend has gotten hooked on fishing I need...
I have no problem with stockers especially if they are in the 3-5 pound range. Hopefully it will not be that crowded with it being the weekend before Christmas. You never know. This trip is mainly...
I will check them out. Thanks.
Rev Rob,
Thanks for the info. I knew there had to be someone local to Fresno on FAOL. Local knowledge is the best kind. :D
I completly forgot about Herb Bauer's. I will tell my brother to...
Eric,
Thanks for the information.
I looked at the regs and it looks like I will have to limit my fishing to the C&R sections of the Kings if I go there. No big deal to me since I do not keep any...
I am going to be in Fresno for Christmas and my nephew wants to learn how to fly fish. So, naturally being the great uncle that I am, I told him ok I will teach him. I am really looking forward to...
Jordan,
I really do not know of any places near Boulder or Fort Collins. I know of a couple places in Denver along the South Platte River though.
Give Front Range Anglers...
Streamers mainly.
I really can not decide on a particular pattern though.
If forced to choose one particular pattern then I would have to say half-backs. They are pretty easy to tie and great...
That is a neat way of securing the top. I would never thought of doing something like that.
Thank you for the information.

That is one nice looking rod tube.
How did you make it? I am thinking of making one myself but I have not figured out how to do the end caps. How did you do yours? Thanks.

I have been using the RIO Versa-tip on one of my 8 weights for a while now. The only complaint I have is that the connection between the running line and shooting head was a bit stiff. The lines...
Why build?
Just wait until you catch a fish with a rod that you built with a fly that you tied. What a feeling! Plus it is a lot of fun to do.

I have two of them that I use for salt. I really like them. The drag is smooth and will stop a truck. Plus it is a darn nice looking reel.
Paul
I will keep that in mind. Thanks.
Thanks for the info. I have a spool of 8lb florocarbon mono. that needs to be used and I was just going to take that with me.
Is there a diagram on how Jay does his tandem rig? I did not see...
I have been doing a lot of ready and have a question about fly fishing in the surf. What length of leader do you all use? How about size? I was think of using about 5 feet of 8lb mono for a...
Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. It depends if I remember to put one on or not. When I do tie in a tail, I usually use some KF.
Paul
Thanks for the links. I will look at them when I get home from work tonight.
Joe,
I can see the Gremmie working for bass, pike, perch and even rainbows in a couple of the lakes and ponds I...
Joe,
I did not know that the rentals were so cheap. That might be a possibility then. That Gremmie Fly looks like something I could use in Colorado. Thanks for the web site. There are some nice...
Bill,
Thanks for the compliment. My family and friends call me something else but I can not print it here. It goes something like bleeping insane. http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/smile.gif ...
