I have a new 13' Speycaster I bought out of England and had it shipped to me here. Long time ago. Never used it....so tube will show some dust but the rod is brand spanking new and is a beauty. I do...
Will the Castwell knot work and be sufficient to tie the tippet to the tippet ring of a furled leader?
I believe a message from something called Margaritareero in my PM is a bad or dangerous message. Looking for that name in FAOL does not exist. I have put it on my ignore list. But how do I delete it...
Thanks Uncle Jesse.....but I know Loctite is a super glue....I said that iin my message.
I am thinking about Goop now. caibill suggested that in another post.
I had totally forgotten about goop....
Is there that much difference between 20lb and 30lb? I was thinking about buying some 12lb....
Thank you caibiill....I like that. Didn't think about that one. Good tip and thank you. I had forgoten about Goop,.

I watched Lefty Kreh about tying an Albright knot and he recommends in his book to use Loctite 406 on the knots. I don't have any. Was wondering what I wanted to secure my knot with. I have used...
Sorry....re-posted it in Learning Experience Pass it on......

I have a small 3wt reel and a 4wt reel. I only have 30lb backing but I have lots of braid. My 4wt reel took all the line and very little room left for any backing. The Stealth 25lb is so much thinner...
Wow. I never expected that....thanks
Opera has been my favorite for a long time now.
But I am going to commence using Brave.
Thank you again for the information.

Curious when I try to get to FAOL using Opera it responds "FAOL refused to connect".....or something to that affect. Can't remember exackery what it says....

Bluegill Budd and Ohiotuber....enjoy your posts. I am sort of new to Maine.....been here a few years now but not always fishing. So not good at fishing here. I would like to know where you went...
Thank you all for your posting opinions. I expected to get some harsh comments.....this is good so far.
Appreciate DaleW taking the time to post all his knowledge icw leaders and such. Good info...
What is the purpose or reason for a leader and then tippet?
My 8wt furled leaders looks just as visible as the fly line.....with a 2' tippet?
Why don't I just tie 2' tippet to my fly line?

I appreciate all the feedback. Thank you one and all for the comments. I like your vaccination message Rainbowchaser. I agree.
I'll have 3 modes of transportation on a 14' Starcraft aluminum boat. I...
I have been told one can cut the shaft size down. Now I see mine at the head looks like it simply has a bolt thru it to mount the head. So I guess I can remove the head and cut it to the size I...
Some website said get a minimum 105ah battery as a "minimum". Ok at 52a draw that would run about 2 hours at top speed. But man a 105a is so heavy.....
Does anyone have an idea of how much Amp Hour...

I appreciate your comments. I guess I am a bit anal about things. I do not need all the bells and whistles. But I always search to get what seems to be the best one.....in a given price range.
