  1. I never really thought too much about it. When I was learning to Fly Fish, they said to have it just tight enough so that it doesn't free spool when you pull line off. Like some of you, I do tend to adjust it during the fight. If it's running too easy, I tighten it up. I also find that when I have my rod under my arm, the drag gets loosened from flopping around under my arm that I have to re-adjust when I am done tying my flies on.
  2. I tried the TFO Special Delivery Line. I got it for free (plus $10 shipping or something) when I purchased my 8'6" 5wt last year. Really didn't like it at all. My Cortland 444-sl was WAY nicer to cast, floated better and was easier to shoot line with. Used the Special Delivery for a total of two days on the river.
  3. Awesome shots! I particularly liked the one in B&W of the sunken ship. Must not have been as warm as it looked judging by the winter gear you're wearing.....
  4. Nice Birchy! I hope the first fish you catch on that beauty is an absolute HOG.
  5. Awesome vid as usual Jay. Thanks for posting. And please, keep them coming! I need vids like these to remember the "good old days" of summer and warm days long past.....
  6. I'll be going for sure. Likely on Sunday as I work Saturdays. Thinking about signing up for one of the workshops too. I'll be sure to stop and say Hi to some of you guys I haven't met yet.
