    Did I Get It Wrong?

    People use what they use to fish and target the fish that give them enjoyment. I have specific Sages that I only use for streamer fishing although they are only 3 or 4 wts, a small piece of t-12 (like 12") and you have a very effective sink tip, or just fish a longer leader. You will have to use some common sense as a 3wt isn't throwing a 10" double bunny for bulls, but a size 2 muddler or bugger... no problem. The only limit is your own perceived limitations.

     

    Well said! If someone wants to go "lob" streamers let em. Personally i could care less what gear a guy is using as long as its not killing fish, or interrupting my fishing experience. Too many internet warriors / purists put effort into criticizing others because they do things different. If throwing some streamers on a lighter rod gets the job done for someone and they enjoy their experience fishing all the power to them. While i choose to to focus on fly size in relation to my rod for that day, i have zero f***s to give if someone wants to do otherwise. If your that upset about it maybe you'd be better off focusing on why your not having a great enough time fishing to care what other guys are doing.

    Drift Boat Etiquette

    My biggest things is a general respect rule, I I'm on the Oars I try to scoot to the other side as quietly as I can, sometimes it's impossible to avoid drifting through the waders run, usually I just apologize, pull the lines in and pass and quick and least disruptive as possible, My favourite experience was a guy on a pontoon who would float through my run then drag his boat back to the top and go through again. On the third run through I think he got the message when I hooked his jacket with an articulated number 2 sex dungeon. Amazes me some guys train of thought!

    How Many Flies Do You Carry?

    usually i carry way too much, the last year and a bit ive started focusing on cutting back! got so tired of luggin all that stuff through bush and trees! i struggled cutting back at first cuz im a packrack but once u get used to it and are catching fish its nice being free of all those boxes! i suggest cutting to two boxes, it challenged me to really pay attention to the waters i was fishign and help learn and predict bug hatches and patterns etc. to be honest tho i still carry a giant soft bag with thousands of flies in the truck so i guess that makes it easier if i cant match the hatch, knowing i can run back to the truck!
