Looking to buy myself a 2 wt as a grad present. Wondering if anyone has any input on one?? Thanks

yup, that was us. were you one of the three pontoons that were by them islands?

Was a good time for sure. Nice to finally get a pike or two... My 1st pike again... Almost time to leave... One of Brents fish when I was able to kick over to him in time with the gail force winds...

Thanks. Just used 5 min epoxy, will have to look into that Tuffleye. Its actually saltwater yak hair, not buck tail. And the curse of tying them the day after didn't work today...was slamming them again.

Tied a bunch of these up. Probably a bad omen as I caught all my fish on it the other day, so it probably won't work next time. PS I hate epoxy...

thanks bud

That is was. Take it you were one of the 4 guys out there. was at the creek, but left before you guys made it my way. Here's some pics I took. Grayling: Sunrise: Sunset @ upper (this didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped):

lookin good bud. ill take a few...if it was me id add a little bit more maribou for the tail (more so for the 1st one)...but those are better than the ones i tie

beedhead, i was out there yesterday. was the guy in the blue truck and backpack. should have figured it was you when you said you fished bullshead as much as you do...nice to meet the two meet you

A friend pointed me in the direction of the HMH vises. I like the looks of them (haven't used one yet), as you can adjust the angle of the jaws. I have used a renzetti one (not sure of the model) but found the angle, and how the jaws were quite low, to be quite difficult. These vices look good and are reasonably priced. May be worth checking out. You can check those vises out at: http://hmhvises.com/spartan.html

Congrats clyde!!! Great ties by everyone! Thanks DBT for setting it up along with all the other contests!

missed out...was out up here in the NW for about 1/2 hr..

nice ties man. you can also try throwing some krystal flash over the thorax area...I've had some good luck with this fly recently on the bow:

whats it at...100 shots and two goals....unreal game. best of the playoffs so far...

ya they did

Just got an update. one of the guys who stole my vehicle got 2 months in prison and the other 11 months!! bastards

dope fish man!! congrats

haha thats not bad.....last month i had a 530$ bill!!! couldn't believe it. same as you...women. making installment pmt's....no way i could fork over that much money.....

Just think though....come after the 5 yrs, the gov't will get another 10k when they do it again for spending it on whatever they want..... I agree, growing up in a small town, I found that many hunters/fishers poached with complete disregard for the laws.

right on. glad to hear it!

wow. thank god i didn't make it past the 1st round . unbelievable ties everyone!!!

that would have been nice if mine was that when my vehicle was stolen....my home owners was $2k.

sorry to hear man. 3 board members with stolen vehicles in the last year...me, birchy and you. Hope you get your gear back. I had all mine in my vehicle, but was there when they busted the guys. Check with your home owner insurance. my deductible was too high, but you can claim it under there as its not covered under vehicle insurance (at least mine anyways).

Fixed it.

good job dude!
