too cool.
I'd prolly come up with a back-up way to secure the rods. If the velcro lets go then its bye-bye rods

I think Hobies are better than the Natives in the pedal dept. The leg motion you use is back and forth instead of circular. You have more strength in the back and forth and won't get fatigued as...
I never tied or fished a spun hair popper. Seems like a lot more work to tie one. Are they worth the effort? They sure look nice but I haven't had a bass tell me they prefer the hair:)
Happy New Fly Rod Day for me! I worked out a trade with kbproctor and he made up this custom 2pc 8'6" 5wt for me. I love the handle on this rod. Really nice seat, simple yet elegant wraps on...
Heading to Naples and will have one day to fish. Heading to Chokoloskee with my 8wt. Any suggestions as to what flies to bring?
wow - how much do they get into the backing? This sounds very challanging indeed!
That's a nice looking pond. If it was in NJ then there would be overgrowth surrounding it and 5 guys fighting for the one clear spot to backcast. And 20 bobbers floating around.
Single hand spey cast maybe?
I did that once when surf launching in 2-3ft breakers. Total yard sale after I did a major dump. Good thing everything important was lashed. I also use a towel to strip into. Once an awhile the...
Anybody using them from the surf with a 9 or 10wt? I usually use straight 20lb mono.
I feel for you. Its one of the hardest things to do. But you have to do it for them.
I love Scotty's. I have one of mine mounted in front of me and with the extension. This allows me to angle my rod across me and this is a great trolling position. You have your eye on the rod the...
too bad you don't have time. $1 sheet of craft 1/4" foam from Michaels, Zap-a-Gap, some flash or feathers and a hook. 2 min a popper once the foam is cut up.
This one is a bass size one I made...
All I use now are a 6'6" Elkhorn 3wt, 7'10" 6wt and 7'10" 8wt off my yak. Keeping my eyes open for a 7'10" 10wt (last two are Redington Preditors). I find them much easier to control and less high...
You're in our thoughts and prayers. Glad it was caught early.
Fly fishing from a yak is my favorite past time. You can sneak up on fish and drop a fly right on them. 25-30ft cast is all that is needed.

I've had my Adventure for 5 years and love it. I use it mostly in the ocean and its very stable. Sailing rudder is a must and turbo fins work real nice. I use my paddle often when maneuvering into...
Thanks for the link Dave. Nice flies. I'll be trying mine out this weekend.
Thanks! I have two Redington Preditors in the 7'10" length. Ones an 8wt and ones a 6wt. Forgot to mention I'll be on a kayak so its more of a lobbing technique. I was wondering about the hook to...
What size hooks should I use for 2-3lb LMB. I have a small lake chuck full of them. I was thinking 1/0?
I'll put some in the mail for you. Wish I knew before I sent you your glass fish.
White or Chart/White clousers will cover most of your needs if you want to tie your own.
I broke the 3rd section (piece below tip section) on my TiMax 7wt. Anybody bust a tip on one and nolonger want?
You can rent a kayak just over the Marco bridge in Isle of Capri at the Capri Fish House.
