Entertaining replies but not what I meant. Here's a link of what I mean... http://www.ginkandgasoline.com/fly-fishing-gear/10-inexpensive-fly-fishing-life-hacks-from-the-home-depot/

After building my own fly rod holder for the truck, I'm curious to see what others have hacked together. Post some pics! http://flyfishcalgary.com/board/index.php?showtopic=22022

Indeed it is ABS.

Love my 3 Tand bought from IronBow. Solid reel for the price.

$20 in materials and this is what I came up with. I needed it to work with the tonneau cover down and have quick/easy access to the rods.

My intentions are to keep the rod fully intact when jumping from hole to hole down the ftr @ 50kmh. I don't have a rear window but I do have a tonneau cover. If the tonneau cover was metal I'd do this... Some good suggestions, but I'm gonna get crafty I think.

Does anybody know if they make a fly rod holder for a truck bed? I know they make mounts for the hood and roof of your vehicle which would work I guess, but do they make something specific for the back of pickup? They're also pretty pricey. I thought about hacking something together with magnets and pvc tubes. Thoughts? ... and go...

Thanks for the info Feather... Will golf courses let you fish their ponds? I imagine you'll have to ask for permission. We'll be golfing Mission Hills and Indian Wells and PGA West. How does one figure out which ponds have fish? Sorry for all the questions.

I'll be in Palm Springs golfing next week, and yes I know it's a desert, but is there any fishing around the area?

Aloha

I don't ever want to encounter a "big cat"!

Will you be at Dutch next week, Monday to Wednesday? I plan on camping there those days and fishing the OM and Livingston as much as I can. Maybe fish a run together as I'll be solo?

Gonna camp around that area during the week and wanted to let friends know where I am if they decide to come and fish for the day. Or anywhere on 40? Thanks.

That sucks balls!!! Don't know if you tie flies, but if you need a certain pattern(s), I can whip some up for you. I'm sure there are others on this site that will do the same. Let me know.

I too was wet wading this weekend. Well at least my left leg was. My right leg was dry. I hate it when you discover a hole in your waders when the car (with duct tape) is 1km away. I had a productive weekend with dry flies. I only resort to nymphin' when nothing is clearly rising and only after prospecting with a dry. Cuttys, I find are not as selective in what they go for. Either a flashy red or orange fly is usually the ticket when they're rising. An orange foam rubber legged stimulator pattern was killin' it for me. Also had luck with a Royal Wulff style dry fly.

Haha!

I will need to spend $$ on guitar lessons then. Will I be able to serenade fish to my net with that guitar?

Haha... Are you a hand model?

Stonefly Nymph... There are always Stones in the Bow.

Ummm... I don't cast that far at night so not sure how those would help me fishing.

Already have a pontoon net and a smaller for rivers and creeks. hmm... didn't think it was this challenging. How about something like this...? http://www.abelreels.com/store/Abel-Pliers.html

That's the thing. I really don't need any fly fishing gear. I have two inflatables, a quiver full of rods and reels to match. It's one of those questions, "what do you get a guy (as in myself) that has everything (fly fishing ie.) that he needs?".

Sold a lot of my old gear and made a tidy profit at the craps table last night. I'm a gear head so looking for something to blow it on. Any suggestions?

Yup. I knew I'd get some flack.
