I just add a bead onto my rigging to prevent wear and the hook entering the tube as well as melt the ends.

for a streamer line i use the sa 5 wt streamer express cut back to a ten or twelve foot head but i keep the extra piece for lake fishing then i attach the second piece loop to loop. I use this on my z-axis 590-4 and it casts great.
-
I would not hesitate going with a 4wt/ 6wt combo(or 3) z-axis but i would recomend a nine footer.

Exclusive to Country Pleasures Fly Fishing, the brand new Orvis Hydros is really something to behold.
Built on the same blank as the world-renowned Helios, the Hydros is the lightest rod for it's pricepoint (and up to 22% lighter then other manufacturer's top end rods).
We have to admit, it is far away the nicest casting rod we've ever seen for under $600.
It was also awarded the 2009 Midcurrent.com Best Of Show Award, and available in 3 through 12 weight configurations.
If you have any questions about this rod, be sure to stop by our booth at the Fly Fishing Expo this weekend and give it a cast, this rod will turn some heads.
Check our post in the Sponsor's Announcements for an update on what we'll be doing at the show.
really nice casting rod!!!

its not just the bait fisherman ( but most are targeting fish to keep) who take their " limit " ive seen many a guy walk into a pool on the bow using flies ( generally on spinning rods ) and take their " limit ". it all depends if they understand/are educated whats going to happen in the future if they keep taking their limit or not.
I just think that a limit of five or ten on a river with a city of 2 million people on it is crazy.
Quote Daxlarsen:
"I'm thinking we should do something to raise awareness, and possibly do something to completely lift the bait fishing session on ALL rivers, and lower the whitefish limit to 2 fish, which is more similar to most other fish species and give them a fair chance."
I agree and i do not support baitfishing or taking any fish out of our ecosystem. I think the lack of whites is directly linked to the decline of their native predators, bulls.

i get hooks pretty similar to tie czech nymphs on.
-
my problem is finding them cant seem to do it at policemans.
-
will have a dozen nymphs tied and can meet you at the show.

Absolutely LOVE!!! my 300 grain sharkskin streamer express i use it on my 8 wt and it sinks like a rock and casts unbelivably.
-
A fish is a fish is a fish. theyre all great to catch, even though id rather catch a rainbow than a white ill take the whites when i can get em.
-
What flies are wanted? Will tie dozen or two
