  8. Flies no, rods depends on carrier. Seen a guy had a couple of 4pc rods in tubes carried in a packback on Alaska Air and he had no issue
  9. Without having a close look at it, I might think that the rabbit strip might be turning it over due to being top heavy.
  10. How about the Jamaican bobsled team.....they had to be the favourite underdogs.
  11. Spaniels are my preference we have two of them.
  12. Have you tried hitting enter/return a couple times first after pasting the link? Another option could be is post it and then edit your post after posting. I haven't had it happen yet but I'll look into it further.
  13. You have to resize using an external editor or have your photos hosted by a site like photobucket. The forum software doesn't resize just sets the limit of the file size that can be uploaded.
  14. I worked with something similar a while back,maybe 4yrs ago and it work well. From what I can tell from the photo the stuff I used had a sort of mesh covering on the topside while the foam you are using doesn't seem to have it.
  15. Check out all the shops you'll being doing yourself a favour. Besides look at going to the shops as a treasure hunt of sorts.
  16. After seeing this photos, the warmer wearer can't get here soon enough.
  17. That would depend on what you want to fish for and the length of the season. Notice in other thread of yours that you would like to winter down south.
  18. Nice nymphs Matt
  19. It will give you a segmented look as the hair has a very nice taper to it, I usually soak them in warm water for a bit as you would for a feather quill. I find that they are moe durable tan feather quills.
  20. Never dyed it before but it's natural colour is a good match for many natural bugs that are out there. Many of the hairs are actually two toned, light and dark.
  21. Ever try porcupine guard hair as a quill body?
  22. I fully agree with you Taco, shaw has many interruptions in their Internet service
  23. If you don't agree with the poster take it up with him/her via PM. Causing a p.....ing contest will get you in trouble
  24. Wonder if it could used in much the same ways as llama or alpaca? If so you'll have a great new material.
