  1. Sorry to hear .. slimy SOB's, I had all my fishing gear stolen a few years back , 2500 bucks + worth of gear .. lucky they found the guy and it was returned .. good luck ..
  2. Thats been my sig since the start .. only quote i could find that truly expresses the way I feel about fishing..I'd imagine you feel the same way ..
  3. I totally agree .. as you can see from my signature .. Fishing is somthing different for everyone, for some it's about catching/hooking fish, for others (and this is the category in which i stand) It's about being out there fishing, in your own world, not worrying about money,work, health, anything.. I grew up (well, got older anyway) fishing salmon on the east coast where (back in my time) you got 10 tags a year to fill .. I can't remember a year where I filled them all, but usually released enough fish to keep your limit..It was about fishing with my dad .. being out there one on one with nature .. it did'nt matter if you caught a fish, hooked a fish or even seen a fish .. you'd fish just as hard and be back at it the next day, regardless of the outcome..a fresh fish for supper (or to land/hook one) was indeed a bonus but not the ultimate goal .. looking back on my childhood its alot easier to understand the values instilled in me by my father .. and I would'nt change it for the world ..
  4. very pleasing to the eye indeed ..
  5. Been using Maxima for a LONG time, both for my Mono and flouro needs .. no difference in the small/large spools .. If anybody here knows of a difference .. I'd like to hear it .. cause I think it's like ABC detergent .. price is the difference ..

  16. Scratch off the tying flies & the Porsche .. and I'm batting 1000 ..
  17. my 0.02, standard beadheads make little differnce for weight compared to lead or tungsten, I tie a some nymphs wrapped in lead with a tungsten head for my "heavy flies", lead with standard bead (the ones i use are not actually for tying so they are pretty light) for my medium flies, and just a straight bead head for regular or unweighted nymphs...however most times I use split to control my drift, unless its in shallow or slow moving water where fish can get a better look..then i use weight nymphs to try for a more natural drift..
