  1. Airdrie Trailer Use to make drift boat trailers but welding would be my first choice.
  2. I've never had a problem with bringing on a rod tube with both Westjet or Air Canada to Mexico. My tube is 4" which will hold 5 saltwater rods. Your rod tube however is classified as your carry-on so you are allowed a personal item but not a second carry-on bag. Sometimes people get lucky but I have never tempted fate. I also bring all of my reels in my personal bag with line on the reels flus one day of fishing clothes. Arrive early as security sometimes will make you take each section of rod out to be examined. You are also allowed to bring on flies that are 6cm or less so it doesn't hurt to throw a dozen Bonefish/Permit flies in a zip lock bag so you have something when you arrive. There was a law years ago on the Mexican Government website that stated any more than three rods and reels you could be charged duty on the value cuz they think you are going to leave them or sell them. To me it is pretty clear on the Catsa website that you are allowed to bring rods on board as carry-on along with reels and lures 6cm or shorter. Enjoy!
  3. Can't figure out how to do this cuz I can't upload any more yet it says i've used only 3% of my quota ???/
  4. People wearing neoprene waders when it's +30 degrees out!
  5. Good to hear and thanks for sharing. I have 3, 5000DD's to send in with issues.
  6. I use two lines on my 6wt streamer rods. Rio In Touch Streamer tip. 10ft intermediate sink tip for low flo clear water and Rio sink tip 15ft 6-7ips for faster murky water.
  7. I'm tired of the straps on these disposable masks coming apart. If you put a small dab of thin UV resin on it then hit it with your light no more broken straps. Simple easy fix so I thought I would share.
  8. That is an awesome video! Great watch.
  9. Last week my wife decided to take over the bar downstairs to start her planting. Garage too cold and workshop full of renovation supplies to keep me busy during the pandemic. I guess I'll just have to suck it up but if she encroaches on my fly tying area, I will have to put my foot down!
  10. If you can source a used TFO TiCrx 8wt salt rod, that is an awesome pike rod. The 9 wt I don't like. Virtually impossible to break IMO. I have a few TFO salt rods along with Sage and Loomis and sometimes I almost prefer the TFO rods because I never worry about breakage.
  11. Try Amazon or an aftermarket truck shop. Hyde could care less about Canadians or their orders. I've tried to order in the past and it is one screw up after another. Damn Republicans!
  12. I am in the same boat as you. I've stuck to buying good used boots and just re felt them. I have not found a single quality boot for a narrow foot.
