Hello all, Thanks to Courtney Ogilvie from Nile Creek Fly shop for bringing his knowledge of 2 hand casting to our shop this past weekend. We have some of the Beulah switch in 6/7 & 7/8 wts in stock now. What a beautiful rod for the Bow. As well we are stocking some of the Beulah Tonic heads in different grain wieghts as well as some of the Elixir lines. This combination does not break the bank and is well worth checking out. Thanks, Dave. SouthBow Fly & Tackle 403 873 0744

Great rod and line combo, it is the cats meow. Dont mean to highjack this thread but the Beulah rods and lines are all in the shop starting tommorrow and thru the weekend. Lots of demos to cast out on the lawn, I just finished talking to Courtney and he said that they were also available to fish with for a few hours. If you have not cast these rods and lines, this weekend is your chance, they do perform well. Once again sorry for the highjack. Thanks Mike

Right now we have 3 spots left. The June 13th spot should hit it just perfect. If you haven't sight fished to these big gator's it really is a rush. By the by folks Mike & I have been tying pike flies all winter so we have pretty good stock of some great patterns. Lot's of long polar bear too! Thanks, Dave.

All though we have only had their product in our shop for a short while, 6 months to be exact we have had limited warrenty returns, so good news on that front. If the product in question is in stock from our supplier it has been shipped back within a week to 10 day's. Pretty good service I would say. A few of the oddball no longer available products are a little tougher to come by. We had a customer break his out of production Trout Bum 5wt in his car door and we had him back up & running a week later thanks to the folks in Ontario. Thanks, Dave SouthBow Fly & Tackle
