  1. I love the slow motion takes. Seeing the line tear off the surface of the water, fish on, Awesome..
  2. Good info. Thanks for the heads up..
  3. I assume Max didn't blow the deal of the century? Nice...
  4. How about a brief breakdown on the basics of the setup? The various types of heads (I've heard Skagit, Scandi, etc.) and the differences of each, as well as running lines, etc? I assume belly, etc is the same as with standard flylines? I was looking over Flyon's rig when he let me toss it, and made a few mental notes..
  5. I KNOW I'm a freak... But I'm always open to new ways to solve problems...
  6. I agree, but tying into a big pike is a pretty good time I can assure you... Other than that it doesn't hold alot of interest for me either. As for the current to take out the slack in the line, that's the problem I was wondering about and if it could be worked around in still water. Thanks for the advice. I am all ears..
  7. For sure... Yeah, kind of interested in the possibility. Whether it's realistic or not I don't know, but I did read somewhere that one could use such a setup on lakes (??) Any advice would be appreciated. The main reason being is it can be pretty tough to chuck an 8 wt single hander with a big streamer into a stiff wind. Loop sticks, you bet, got a 4 wt multi from Whistler a while back. Ordered on a Friday had it on Monday. Just in time for days off and a trip to the West Castle. Beauty rod. Jayhad, That is definitely on my agenda someday also. I'd give the left one to tangle with a few of those...
  8. That's awesome.. Kinda reminds me of "What part of the chicken does a nugget come from?"
  9. I'm kinda curious about the whole spey game, how do you figure out the proper line for the fishing one would be doing? Also, what is the best way to decide on a length and weight of rod?
  10. A wee garter snake I think (??)
  11. Just to make things a little more pretentious? Oh, wait. You need no help in that department. Would discussion of nymphing/streamer techniques be allowed? I suppose not... And since I don't live in Calgary I DEFINITELY need not apply. ( And for the record, I too have a hard time being an ***hole. But sometimes people just bring it out. )
  12. LOL Thanks alot man,, now I won't sleep for a week..
  13. God I'm incompetent... Click here if the movie does not play.
  14. Click here if the movie does not play. No kidding... Another one I like, still amazed Cash covered Soundgarden.
  15. Thanks,, just figured it out. Must be the metal plate in my head..
  16. Since I'm stupid, how do you post Youtube clips properly????
  17. Good old Robert Johnson cover, kinda like it a bit better.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxuFc-QnfK4
  18. Hehe, if it makes you feel any better we headed out into the South Sask. a few years ago for sturgeon, a good jaunt across the prairie then a 20 or so mile river jaunt to the spot, caught decent fish all day, got some good pics (with film also).. Got home, took the pics into the local "Photo Development" establishment, returned a few hours later to a completely vacuous woman (same one I dropped said film off to) that proceeded to tell me that she "couldn't find" my pics. It was all I could do to not bounce her head off the counter a couple times to jar her memory. Never did get them back.. or did I ever find out what happened to them. Looking forward to seein' some steel man..
  19. I think there are alot of guys that don't think twice to keep fish out of there. I can't imagine they taste great, but f it's there, people are gonna be taking 'em home, I guess, just because they can..
