I like Zap-A-Gap Gel, easy to apply, and dries pretty quick. Duncan

This is Abby, she's really good at putting fish down, but a great fishing companion.

There are plenty of lodges, and guides in the Punta Allen area. Pesca Maya does day trips, and will pick you up at your hotel. I've fished with them twice, and had great guides both times. You could also stay here,http://www.shardon.com/index.html, and the owner can get you hooked up with one of the guides out of Punta Allen. I've been told this is a cheaper way to go. As far as real DIY fishing, the area around the Boca Paila bridge is good, but I believe that area is in the Sian Kaan Bioshpere Reserve, and you would want get a fishing license before heading out. I'm not sure where one would get a license in that area. Here is a pic of the Boca Paila bridge, and a link to Pesca Maya. http://www.pescamaya.com/fishing-ascension-bay.html I will also be in Mexico in november, maybe we can split a boat. Hope this helps.

TM, thanks for the link. What are you guys using on the Bow, long belly, scandi...? I'm looking to pick up and recast the whole line, rather than stripping in to the head, and shoot.(I think??) Duncan

Well I decided to join the club, and picked up my first spey rod off ebay. I bought a Lamiglas CST 12 1/2', 6/7 wt, 6pc. Anyone have any experience with these rods? I am wondering what line would be a good match for a newbie spey caster to start with? I would prefer a multi-tip set-up. Duncan

Building a driftboat is a lot of fun. It can be a fairly big time commitment, but it is worth it in the end. The nice thing about building your own boat is that you get to customize it. As Brunsie said, this is usually where all the extra weight comes from. Here is one that I rebuilt after it was run over. Before restoration After Restoration Duncan

When using silk thread, you will want to tension the spool, and not the thread. The silk thread can fray very easily. Duncan

Renzetti presentation, picked it up last winter, love it. Duncan

cdock, I have a copy of "Rod -Building Guide" by Tom Kirkman that you are welcome to borrow. It will give you a good idea of what is involved. Another good resource is http://www.rodbuildingforum.com/, tonnes of info, and experienced rod builders on that board. You can build a great rod without buying all the tools, and gadgets. PM me if what the book. Duncan
