  1. Last time I had an issue with Smith glasses (my wife's pair) I was directed by Smith to go to a "Local Retailer" (Abominable) to send them in for me... The manager was less then impressed that Smith did this and was very rude (rightly so as I did not purchase them there and was not there to buy anything)... I guess chat with Smith and see what they suggest...

  2. I'm getting a little fed up with Photobucket! Way too many pop-ups and then I have to log out then in again... I'll look at flicker after they lock me out!

     

     

    DON'T TRY THIS. Photobucket is eliminating "3rd party hosting", which is what monger is suggesting. They blocked me this week and they're gonna get around to you very soon as well, monger unless you pay. :argggg: Open a Flickr account (free) and do the same thing.

  3. Murray Don't cheap out. You get what you pay for! Over 5 years of over 30 days walk and wade plus drift fishing on a pair of Simms G4Z. Only pin hole repairs. I've owned both Redingtons and (Older) Patagonias and I've had better longevity out of the Simms. Deb has had great life out of her Patagonias (but not as much wear out of them as I have had with mine). I also have a pair of the Simms Freestone pants. Definitely NOT the same quality of their "Made in the USA" goretex models!

  4. Empty boat, those NRS drifters ride high! Apparently, Josh in his Clacka made it through, but a fibreglass boat is much heavier!

     

    Yeah, I don't think a weaker swimmer would have been able to swim out to the eddy and would have been in trouble!!

     

    Not sure what the flow is and how that effects the size of the rapids.

     

    I betcha there will be quite a few flipped boats after it opens!!

  5. What can I say Jason... I admit I was under gunned... Yeah it's a BIIIx, but a 6 wt can only do so much!! I wasn't expecting to be using as large flies as what we found to be working...

     

     

    Them's fightin words. I'm surprised Pete has let it go as long as he has.

     

    Very nice photo Deb!

  6. Deb and I got out for a little pike action today...

     

    She recently purchased a new camera (Olympus EM 10 Mark II - mirrorless ) and was playing with the settings... This one turned out pretty good (though I probably should have brought my 8 wt)!
