  1. ....the sedin line was -11 on the night - thelma and louise are softies and always will be.....thomas was invincible.....luongo average at best.....kesler a non-factor.....good work bruins.....now if only the damn rain would stop all would be well.....

     

    have to agree man, the alien brothers didn't show up.......WOW what a surprise!!!!!! Good on ya Boston!!!!!!

  2. picked up all sorts of new toys this year and im super stoked on getting a few more!!! rods on the way im excited about are the loop opti power 9130-5 and the evotec mf 8120 some deadly trout stick i got on the way that should be great too are teh loop xact 6126-4 and evotec mf 6126-4!! finally reasonably priced loop troutters!!!!!!

     

    my all time favorite stick is still the opti 8124.. can cast that rod all day long no doubt!!!! wether it be with a 510 airflo skagit or loop scandi head in 31ish grains float or full intermediate i just cant get enough of this stick!!!

     

    had the pleasure of fishing the pieroway metal detectors alot this year mainly the 510 it is a sweet stick fished it lots for trout on teh bow this year.. i dig a 480 skagit on it or a 31gram scandi.. used it for steelhead lots this year too swinging wets, dries or tossing big bugs with the skagit!!! but i cast the 720 quite a bit too for fun and got one small steel with it! that stick can cast any tip and any fly as far as i want it to go for the most part totally awsome!!!!!

     

    glshooter i have the evotec 8136-4 mf and totally dig the stick with a 540 skagit! 570 will be best for most people i think but i wanted too speed the blank up a bit.. never got too cast the `f`blank... i dig the new evotec handles.. its exactly like a hockey stick in shape!!! feels just right EH!

     

    a rod i had a blast casting for only a few days this year and will be using alot more in some situations was the GASS 9116 .. used it in squamish for chums.. its my double barrel sawed off shotgun loaded with slugs!!!! lined with a 570 skagit this stick it awsome for big flies and tips in tightplaces!!! such a fun stick to cast!!

     

    a few other rods i enjoyed this year were the sage tcx series got too cast a few different lengths n weights n i enjoyed them alot same with the g loomis nrx series!! i just dig the tip flex fast action i suppose!!!! both series are light responsive with tons of power!!!!

     

    like silver doc said! wish i had more cash flow too toss around too!!

     

    Double barrel sawed off eh....I like the sound of that!!!! I'll just have to subdue the wife in order to get one!! lol

  3. I was lucky enough to be able to cast a few rods in 2010 as well from Sage, Beulah, Snowbee, Pieroway and Loop. I am still lovin' my Loop rods though...9132 Yellow, 9140 Multi, 7132 Multi and most notably my goto stick an 8124 Opti (my fav!). Another rod that spent a bunch of time in my hands this year was a 510 Pieroway Metal detector, a super sweet and smooth rod (the coolest looking spey on the market imho!). My wife mainly uses her GASS 9126 and the 510 Pieroway as well. I would really like to get my hanks on a Loop Evotec there Toolman, especially the the 12 or 13'6 8wt!! Good to hear that you like the big 14 footer. Have you tried any double handers from Vision? I would like to get my hands on one of those as well....as you know one can never have too many spey rods!!
