  1. Icky seems to be out of stock quite a bit. Has anyone tried: http://mrffstackle.com/ or can recommend another place to order them up from?
  2. note i also have a cheapo pflueger 5/6 wt with a purist reel
  3. Ya'll are gonna get sick of my posts now that I have fully caught the fever. Ok this 9ft rod is my starting rod. Can I use this for dries, emergers, nytmphing, and streamers. Keep in mind im not gonna spend money on seperate rods until i learn more about all. Ive seen suggestions I should change the fly line on this nxt package. Now to leaders. Ive read the nymphing primer and am going to follow rickr's advice and try a 2x leader. Any specific recommendations for this and strike indicators?

    Boiling Fish

    Thanks i'll take a read. So how does one get a nymph or emerger or nymph to stay just under the surface. Sorry this site is just a lot faster than me struggling via google to find the right answers. Do you need a specific leader?
  5. Hey Guys, If you see fish boling like mad but not apparent insects on the surface what kind of flies should you try and throw? (PS Very new to fly fishing)
  6. Unfortunately, the 360 is notorious for beating up on discs. If you play a game hard (like I do with madden) you should always consider installing the game and running off the HD. The disc has to be in to play but its not constantly moving. Now with a scratched disc, before you go out and spend any money you can try a gamer home remedy by scrubbing an abrasive toothpaste (like something with baking soda in it) all over your disc with your fingers or a cloth. Sounds barbaric I know but it works if the scratches aren't too deep.
  7. I read a post a while back but cannt find it now. I talked about the +/- percentages of browns/rainbows in different parts of the bow. All I remember was a 70-30 split for browns in the NW. Any help or input?
  8. Thanks.....what about Police to Legacy? about 10? Is there anywhere to launch between policemans and Mac?
  9. Hey All, Well we have an annual beer league sodtball tournament in Carseland on Sept. long weekend and really want to try a float with a buddy before hand. Was thinking Mac - Johnson but maybe Mac to legacy. First off how long to the float take +/-? Secondly if we decide to go to the weir do we park right at the weir lot or is there somewhere else more advisable? Thanks in advance.
  10. Its says its a 5/6 wt. Can I use this for dry and nymphing? Sorry for the newb questions but do I need to reels with different lines to achieve this or is it all in the leader/tippet? or maybe splits shots. Basically I am asking what I have to do to nymph and dry on the same rod on the same day.
  11. well what are you doing? All decks dont need permits.
  12. Ok now for a little revival with a twist. Can you compare the NW (where I often fish) to the south. I obviously know that the souths vegetation blah blah......but how much. Of a difference does it make on the numbers game in your opinion.
  13. Can you pound the banks (never tried this) with rising water or is it smarter to wait until a steady state is reached? I know there are fish to be had during murky water just need help on the timing.
  14. Hmmmm well obviously there are so many variables and changes season to season but if you averaged out of your last 20 trips to the water then 2-3 per hour to hand seems reasonabvle I suppose. Who can claims they RARELY get skunked.
  15. What would gents consider an average day on the water in terms of production? Say you spend 3 hours on the water. Then share our best number on the bow to date and how long you were out. I am sure I will see manny "any day on the water.....".....please spare the sentimate. Quantitative here for curiousity sake.
