I totally understand your point. An option to this to register your real name and have it so that only administration can view it

I'm interested in seeing what comes out in this thread, personally I like to see us hand out more permant suspensions instead of warnings

have a good one Chris

Cool looking forward to meeting you

The main line I intend to use with the rod I would like is Rio Nymph......roll casting will the main type of casting being done if that helps

Thanks Jack but it sounds like it may be too heavy for what I have in mind.

PM me I have a special enlargement program that should help clear up some of the distortion.

Tail is too long for lynx and too short for a cougar.....I'd say coyote

Did you get to test this rod Jack?

They were at the show in January so I would imagine they are still around

Thanks to those that sent me pics but unfortunately I did not receive enough to do the project the the way I had hoped to complete it. I will be deleting those that were sent to me

what about lead tape? ......golf shops carry it

I like the top one Mike.....I'll take a dozen please

3 words Shane Stalcup patterns

No you keep the rights, selected photos only to be used on Flyfish Calgary forum and/or website

Any subject matter that you find post on the forum here....I want them to represent the board overall itself

Anyone ever use this tool before? http://www.willowreed.com/ Looks interesting......wondering if it is any good.

If you can find them Kasaman are decent hooks.....almost alll my dries are now tied with these

Still looking

Depends on what your looking for: technique or patterns? Technique - The Flytier's Bench Rerference is a must have in my opinion and as for patterns I wouldn't look for a book, just search web for patterns. To my knowledge there is no one book that covers trout , salmon and steelhead very well.

Lynn's revised

I liked it at first but after playing with other combo adding E to GHIJ might look better

My personal thoughts are to go with no more than 5 colours but which 5 is the question.

Thanks Jack. Let me know how the test goes. I might be able to settle on 11ft but would have to try it first. The 13 ft I got in Germany back in the 80's, sweet rod and light for it's size as well.

Here's a gradient of the sample swatches I posted earlier in this thread; it contains all 10 swatch colours. To me it seems a bit too much.......opinions?
