Bah I am too lazy for that I need to see the color change. Building a switch right now 5wt 10' 8" so once that is done then I am going to start playin around with lines and see which one preforms better. I'm personally looking for something that will shoot out with ease for ME. The thing is I don't want a think line cause I do plan on using it for hooper droopers and skating stones.

I know with my 40+ there is a black marker, kind of looks like shrink tub around, does your not have that?

I only call the people that I like to fish with. Just joking, it was on a Sunday and I know you usally spend the day with the kids plus it was cold and most people don't have the guts to go out and catch only one fish in a 4 hr time span of freezing.

Np I was actually using my Loop 9126 GASS, was glad I had my Two Hander cause it put up a wicked fight, at one point it got into this super fast current, and I had to up the but end into my hip and forcefully turn it back into shore, whew was shakin for a long time afterwards espically when I saw it took my little #14 red midget, perfect hook in the cornor of the mouth.

They are fine till you get them wet.... I believe that they were designed as Stripping gloves for streamers and what not. I usally don't get the glove to wet but this time I was holding the brown in the water and tring to get andy to snap some underwater (too murkey)

I assume we can get back to the original post and not the hijacked post

topeti, if I could get my hand on one of the new zpey I would diffently give it a fair shot, espically hearing about how the caster is in no pain, blowen out shoulder that could dislocate at any momment I had to put down my single hander (I still do use my single handers for select things) and go with the two hander. Beeing a student of the underhand casting style and looking at the way the zpey handle is designed, I am pretty much sure I would really enjoy using this new inovetive handle design. Someone bring some over for us to play with.......

I had a double Mac and nuggets yesterday, didn't get the craps till this morning but man where the farts leatheal last night, twice I tell you I gaged on my own stench.

I might be wrong, but I thought it was a draw every month and was for your choice of a rio gold line. I could be wrong though

Jeremy, Happy Birthday hippie

Hmmm good question, how many can my bag hold? I usally tie mass amounts of flies all the time and just fill my boxes then dumb them into my bag. I think I got 2 or three nymph boxes, 2 streamer boxes, a streamer box deadicated to bull trout flies, a dry fly box and a couple misalinous boxes.

Well lets put it this way, I think there is something wrong with the wii's as I usally ship back 2 to 3 a week. Also I know with our laptops we have a 1 time no fault replacement warrenty, what this means is that within three years (First year beeing manufactures warrenty and two additional years through the store) you can litterlly take the laptop throw it down the stairs and we will replace it and that only cost 150, pretty good eh. Also on our laptops with the basic three year coverage at 150 you also get a one time battery replacement, I am pretty sure you will kill your battery in that time span and for genuine batteries from the manufacture 150 is a steal of a deal espically if it is a 12 cell battery. Here is the kicker though, to stop fraulent claims we have to send it to our depo center here in the city and they have to test out the battery and the system to make sure the battery needs to be replaced. All in all there is some money savings on it, but like you said you have to do some reserch on the iitem, and to label all compaines the same is just unfair and unbasis. As beening in the industry for sometime now I can totally understand where people are coming from, what service come and see me and I will always lok after my customers, cause without the Extended Service Plan there is nothing I can do for you after 14 days (laptop and desktops) and 30 days on anything else, and dealing with manufacters are the biggest headach I have ever had.

Hey Mark, I have been selling electronics for the last 4 years and I will tel you this, I get absoultly NOTHING for selling an extended warrenty. Some places they do get a commission for it or something else but not my work. You would be surprised at how many people come back in after a year wanting it replaced and I have to shrug my shoulders and say sorry nothing I can do for you. Also to weedy, if you come back in and buy the same printer from someone 2 years later I wouldn't be buying from them as it is old technology and I know at my work, most things are replaced within 6moths of it hitting our shelfs, and if we don;t have it we give you your money (what you paied for it at the time with absoultly no deprication value on it) so you can get new technology and a new printer for less then the printer is worth at that time and not two years later. I do agree that some places are scams, without a doubt but know who you are buying from and what you are getting. Its up to you to get it or not, but I know when I am dealing with customer I go to the length even helping out with the manufacters warrenty. Does it make the company money sure, but why doi you think a company is started, to make money, duh. Across canada I can see it beeing a bit of a profit but on single units it is almost a diffent lost. For example, a laptop over heats due to poor ventalation and blows out the Montherboard, you take it in, and even if you have to wait two weeks for it to be replaced a motherboard cost around 300 and then labour in putting it in which is around another 200 so you are sitting at 500 and you only paied 145 for the extended service plan the company is still taking a loss. Also if you think we are replacing parts on computers and laptops with OEM parts you are sadly mistaken as we order parts straight from the manufacture and replacing it with the exact same part. Do what you want but remeber not everyone is out to get you so choose wisely and make your descisions based off facts and experinces and not what others have to say.

I've seen it snow here in August also, note only once I have I seen this since 1988

Aswome fish. Only thing is your name kind of reminds me of back home, I have a uncle that was named festus and he is kind of a little off, I guess that is what happens when you are raised in the swamps.

Steve, Have you ever thought of selling some of your work? I wouldn't diffently buy a couple if you did.

I really encourage everyone that owns a spey rod to try and make it out to one of these events as it will not be a waste of money. At $200 this is a chance of a lifetime and should not be missed out on, and to get a free DVD with it diffently makes it worth your time and money. Just borrowed Scott's DvD from a friend and watched it last night and man was I blowen away. The opening scene alone is worth taking a look at (the link gordy provided) My fav part in the bigging is either scott walking acropss the bridge with the ominous music playin in the background, or the airal veiw with the big massive loops scott is doing. Can't wait for the class I feel like a crack addict needing his fix.

When wearing beer goggs on everything is hot. Reminds me of a shirt I once saw, Went to bed with a hawg woke up with a pig (please note it is a Harley Daivson shirt and the hawg was in reference to a motorbike, but take it how you want, lol)

Hey gil, On the flip side to this you say if you catch a trout on a fly that is relaistic then it was due to good ting skill and not random luck, what about good skill at fishing? I absoultly refuse to spend long then 5mins on a fly and I seem to not have much problems catching trout and I say it is due to good fishing skills and not dumb luck.

Its st. patties day girl, we all have our beer googles on and she looks hot

I tend to disagree with you on this Rick. So what you are telling me if you buy a computer and the power supplie dies on you because of a electrical surge, or the ball bearing (made out of nylon) wears down on your hard drive, which generally happens roughly two to three years, and dies on you then having a exented serivce plan would be a waste of money? Howabout on printers, you buy a printer that is worth about 200 and has a LIMITED MANUFACTURE warrenty of 1 year (note most manufactures that I have delt with only warrenty defective parts and not wear and tear) and dies on you on the second year then you have to spend another 200 dollers? At my work we have something called a replacement plan, anything that is 200 or less we cover for two years (1 year manufacture, which we handle and 1 year additional) and what we do is we replace the unit, we do not send it out to be fixed. Some people like myself can not afford to be replacing machines every two or three years and most MANUFACTURE WARRENTIES generally are the life of the machine.

OMG, Ben is driving, the sidewalks are no longer safe. On a serious note I have to agree with what most people say with Speeding is Speeding plain and simple, weather it is 1mph over or 100mph its all the same. Also speed limits are posted as IDEAL conditions, so if the road conidtions are shitty you are responsable as the drive to adjust your speed to the conditions. I had a friend years ago that was going down a hill and hit some gravel and slid into the back of a bronco, even though he was doing the speed limit he was charged with following to close.

Well all of the mc crap talk I had to have one this morning and man 1hr later it feels like I got a ticking timebomb in my pants. Usally when I go to Mc Craps I get a double Big Mac Meal and a 10 piece nuggets and I am usally good to go.

Back to Mc Craps (LoL I love toilet humor) Anyways who remebers the BLT, I use to love that *hit.....
