Thanks guys!

Update: I still can't find the kits. I've tried a few shops in Calgary and Wholesale no longer carries them. The felt sole kits at Springbrook are for small boots, maybe max size 8? If anyone else has any leads on where to get a felt sole kit I would really appreciate it!

Can anyone comment on the action of those Rainshadow blanks in comparison to other rods?

Very cool spot on Bloomberg. Saw this on the Orvis news feed http://www.bloomberg.com/features/2015-made-super-fly-pat-cohen/

Nice shots, some beauties in there!

I'd like to give that 8'0 4wt a whirl one day!

While we're on the topic... looks like the diamondback rod company is making a comeback! http://thefiberglassmanifesto.blogspot.ca/2015/11/diamondback-rod-company-pre-order.html?m=1

If you're in the market, give this UV Resin Shootout column from Fly Fish Food a read http://www.flyfishfood.com/2015/10/uv-resin-shootout.html

I found a shoemaker that did an amazing job on a pair of leather boots I own.. I'm going to buy the felt soles and bring him my old boots and see if he'll do it! My leather boot repair was $35, and if he'll do my wading boots for even double that price, it would save me a lot of hassle, glued appendages and the inevitable glue high.

Nice man!! Looking forward to seeing more shots!

Definitely does the trick! Great shot! I don't think I could ever give up my full frame though haha.

Awesome pictures Marc. Really dig your "artsy" brown trout pic!

Great work guys

I just needed to call the doctor! Thanks Lornce

FYI: 500-999 posts will get you a daily shudder every time you look below your name and see the blatant misspelling of our beloved cutthroat trout...

What a beautiful fish, thanks for sharing the story

DougC, I ended up buying that exact combo! Thanks

Picked up a couple cabelas cgr rods half off the other day

Whatever, I think it's bush league, you guys think it's awesome. Go Royals in the ALCS, and if they don't do it, then go (insert NLCS champ here) in the world series.

Dude he stares right at the pitcher while he's in the batters box!

One more thing... Fleury didn't pot that goal, stare down the goalie and then flip his stick.. I'd say his reaction was more like Morales'; cheering toward his fans and dugout.

Ya I'm talkin' baseball, not hockey Rangers lost that game, Jays didn't win it Edit: and thanks for assuming I don't "get" baseball

Some see it it passion, others see it as bush league arrogance.

Sounds like I'm alone here, but I'm hoping for anyone but the Jays or Dodgers.. I prefer the type of guy who hits a game finishing 3 run homer, doesn't stare down the pitcher, doesn't flip his bat 10 feet in the air, and gets on his horse and runs around the bags. ie. Morales last night (http://m.mlb.com/video/v523220783/must-c-crushed-morales-pads-lead-with-mammoth-shot/?affiliateId=clubMEGAMENU) To the rogers centre fans, this isn't hockey.. You're at a baseball game to drink your beer, not throw it at babies! Even your team was asking you to stop! At least only 8 out of every 10 people I talk to in Calgary say "Baseball sucks" instead of the usual 9 out of 10
