  1. I, on the other hand, will stay waaaay the hell away from those bugs.

     

    On a side note, I have used Intraspecific mimicry with a lady on a date when we were playing cards and the loser had to drink shots of vodka. She drank them, and I chucked them over my shoulder (we were outside on a picnic) and made a face like I just drank it - it was a tactic that paid dividends. I got to remember the events that followed! There was no mate-guarding to be wary of, and I have since returned to my own territory thereby eliminating the competing male's territory claims.

  2. I have fished the DC 5/6 and think it is an excellent rod. With that in mind, I just purchased a Snowbee Torridge 5/6 and it is a wonderful rod although not in the same price range. I enjoy fishing the Rio Windcutter line on my other Spey rod & have no complaints with it. I purchased the Beulah Elixir line for my Snowbee, but have yet to really fish with it for comparison. I do not have any complaints with the Rio Windcutter line. I hope this is of some help to you. Remember, anything can be shipped anywhere, so don't worry if something's not local.

  3. That's what I'm talking about. You have to pay for everything these days - I am reluctant to 'offer' any more of my money. We need to convince the Gov't that the resource deserves more funding from the funds it already collects (all sources). We already have to pay stupid amounts for gas to go fish in the mountains. If you want to fish in the national park, you then have to pay for a National Park Pass as well as a national license. We already pay a lot in various forms of taxation, and I am not inclined to offer any more of my money to the Government when I cannot trust where that money will go. There is no guarantee that the money will go where it is intended. Like I said before in a previous thread that was very similar to this one, I would rather take part in fund raising for more C.O.'s to pay their wages and then there's a certain amount of accountability. I could be wrong, I've been wrong before, but to me it's something that fits better for me. The Gov't must be convinced that our fishery deserves more money and attention. How to do that, I am not sure.

  4. I don't favor an increase in the resident license cost. I wouldn't mind seeing the stocked vs. all waters license, it sounds like a reasonable idea. I already pay too much for other things that our infinitely wise Government has decided to charge more for, so no increase in fees is my vote. For more revenue, jack-up the non-resident license like everywhere else.

  5. I'd say buy from Icky. Save yourself some $$ and support a board member. Besides, they wouldn't sell something that doesn't work well, they are a good bunch with good product. Thanks a ton to the board members who suggested using board members based on experience.
