pm sent...hit me back!
I've got the 8'6 5 wt. I've noticed with Cortland 444 that the rod itself sometimes feels like a wet noodle. I would classify mine more of a medium rod. It loads well in close quarters if you're...
Does anyone have a picture of a Hiromi Kuboki Crab fly? or even the recipe for it? I saw it in an old saltwater flyfishing magazine, but don't know which one and how to see it again.
Hey thanks for all the helpful tips. Yeah I guess for me, I like the solid white color that I can get from bucktails because most of the waters I fish aren't too clear.
Pere, I will try that...
Hey guys, I've been tying a bunch of streamer flies for stripers, but most of the different types of white fibers I try out tend to go transcluscent in the water or gets matted down! I've tried...
A couple years ago, I saw a crab fly that looked exactly like a blue crab. I can't remember what magazine, I'm thinking Florida Sportsman, but I do remember that the tyer was asian (like me). Has...
a BEAD HEAD ADAMS! That's hilarious! never heard of one, I get it still works though!
Was looking at a lot of patterns of crabs and realized that most are made with yarn or something like it...what about closed foam? would that generate too much resistance or line twist?
I'm getting an Orvis TLS with the Battenkill large arbor reel for a 9 wt as was suggested in the Saltwater features section...Gonna be fishing primarily for freshwater stripers, bones, stripers, and...
Congrats grumps...so when you inviting me over to try the rod! lol Hope you enjoy it! If not, you've got thousands of eager FAOL'ers who would love it!
Don't know if LF and JC got back yet, but was wondering if someone knew who won....PLEASE LET IT BE ME!
Oh man gotta love FAOL...whoever wins this month's drawing sure is gonna be lucky! Without bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all lol!
Yeah if you wade wet in summer then I would go neoprene. Sure does feel good to able to fish 3-4 hours without your legs going too numb.
Also DO NOT GET FELT SOLED boots for winter fishing. I...
anyone know of a website that selling them off that cheap...looked @ cableas but they don't have it up on their website
I've notice a huge difference in Fast and medium action rods, but was wondering how a person should adjust the timing in the stroke or should it not matter? Pretty new to flyfishing, and after...
Works well for me! I have it for my 5 wt. Only thing is that it is a tad bit bigger than other reels so it looks kinda awkward, but works great. Haven't gotten into any big fish so I really can't say...
The only time I keep trout is if the hook somehow gets lodged into their gills...I feel sorry for the lads and don't want any fish to go to waste. Other than that nope, usually don't keep them...
Can't say anything about the crosswater or redfly rods, but the RS3 rods are awesome... I've been on some kind of weird search for the best fly rod for me. I agree wtih Devil because I started out...
Hey chubs, I made mine out of a block of wood laying down. Just cut out some groves so that it would fit properly and then sawed the groves accordinglty. Then put a wooden hing on the oppposite side...
Jargo, I love my Redington..casts like a dream. I had a TFO TICR and even a pro, but the 5 wts just seemed too heavy for me...the rods loaded alright. The Ticr were too stiff for me, but the pros'...
Yeah Castwell, I was surprised too when BPS had a bunch of Redington Rods there, but yeah they carry them now apparently!
So no warranty card then huh?
Anyone have any experience with Redington's warranty? I just bought a rod, but it didn't come with a warranty card as many other companies have. The BPS guy who sold me the rod said it has a...
If a manufacturer A puts a rod out that has a larger diameter and weighs more, and labels it as a 5 wt, but another manufacturer B has one out that is lighter and smaller in diameter at the same wt,...
LOL...you guys are hilarious...better stick with a 2 pc...lol
Can anyone direct me to a site that will show me how to turn a 2 pc rod to a 4 pc? Is it doable? What would you need?
