Absolutely true! Too much investment to lose to bugs. I've read to microwave the buggers to kill their larva. I prefer to use mothballs...........

Anyone have experience using fluorocarbon instead of "regular" mono leader material for dries? If fluoro is designed to sink fast because if its greater density than the obvious answer is to use mono...

Yes, thumbs up for Wholesale Fly Co. I've seen good prices at AvidMax too.

AMEN! Our history, both good and bad, molds us as freedom loving Americans and guards us against those who seek to destroy our way of life

Received 10 messages about a program for "captcha solving". Beware.................

Has anyone experienced "thin" resin that is slightly too thick, maybe because of shelf life? What would one use as a thinner? Thanks

I finally figured out the application of the rebates. Each rebate on the end of the stacker is for stacking a different thickness material. So if I’m stacking deer hair, I would use the deeper...

The term "rebate" is printed on the accompanying instructions only and Petitjean doesn't use that term in either your referenced video (@7:37) or mine (@10:00). The tool nevertheless functions as...

Recently bought the Magic Tool Stacker and there is a feature that only appears on the written instructions that refers to a "rebate" on the...

EUREKA! Much thanks Mark...........

Does any one remember/know Fran Better's muskrat nymph tie? It appeared on his site but his site is no more. It may have been a modification of the more well known tie. Thanks

The nature of bamboo is such that a number of weight lines within reason may be used. Depending upon the feel and skill of the caster, you may find a line one weight either higher or lower than the...

Thank you ALL for your advice. Received my spool of 4x Seaguar Invizx today. I typical use the drop shot method when nymphing and hope to get the line down faster and at the level where the trout...

I'm looking for bulk spool (200+ yds) of 4x equivalent, .007", fluorocarbon for tippet material. Any recommendations for brand(s)? Trying to save a few shekels where I can re-spool. thanks

I sometimes spend my winter months practicing tying mono fishing knots on 4X tippet, but not smaller diameter tippets. This year I bit the bullet and practiced tying the blood/barrel that almost...

When is it preferable to use loop vs split loop for hackling? Thanks

A suggestion: learn the roll cast and learn it well............I think its the most important cast to perfect. Best wishes

Yes, I believe Glo-brite #12 is the color I am looking for. Thanks

WOW! Didn't know this thread was going to bring out the ghouls and goblins hidden in the stream beds.............."HO" (no clue about its meaning either)

Is the glo-brite product a floss or is there also a thread? It seems all of the catalog listings for glo-brite is for floss. Looking for a fluorescent thread, if available. Thanks

Yes John Scott, i have seen hooked4life.ca videos and they have been very helpful. I was on the river last week fishing weighted streamers and because the waters were about 2 feet deep, I didn't feel...

much lighter than 4 lbs. the total weight including the box that it came in probably didn't weigh more than 2 lbs. the net can't be more than a half pound otherwise the net would drag you to the...

This is the one I ordered. Glad I did. Best wishes and tight lines

Just received my Frabill rubberized net. Really happy with it and hope to be on the river for its test run soon. The mesh is fine and should offer much less resistance in fast water.
