Great information, thank you for posting!

WOW what selection. Thanks also Lornce for your help at the sale ( and for posting)
-
These fines need to be significant to be a deterrent, NOT same price as a speeding ticket.
-
Sure hope this can be contained.....
I for one will begin the light bleach solution on my wading boots that Lornce suggested last week.

Another who has joined the " vision club". I used to wear my Kaenons then switched to my Costco +1.50 readers to tie flies. Worked ok, just kept readers in my sling pack.
This Spring I bought Maui Jim sunglass readers. Perfect to use as sunglasses for majority of fishing but small portion in bottom that have +1.50 readers built in for tying flies and tippet. ....no swapping back in forth. I bought the Maui Jims at my optometrist office in Calgary.
(I brought a fly and tippet to the optometrist and tied it on to ensure they would work, took about an hour to get used to and no falling issues as they are not as aggressive as progressives )

Thanks for posting....great initiative!

You're probably going to get 10 guys who own TFO rods tell you to get a BVK and same goes with other fly rod brands. But none of those people are you and might not have the same rod preferences. The better option is to go to one of the fly shops in Calgary and tell them your price range, where you plan on using it, etc. and they'll grab the rods that best match your criteria for you to test for yourself so you can pick the rod that best suits you.
BC is correct but I'd echo DHurst's suggestion and cast the Orvis Recon as one of the short list. Amazing rod for the dollar.

I was where you were last summer and Rick's primer and focused practice has really helped this summer. Now I struggle with quality presentation of dry flys LOL

Great tribute to him....classy
-
Awesome thanks guys. Will some shops actually stick some line on them and let you go cast outside to see if it fits your style?
I typically bring my own reel that I plan to pair with the rod for test casting, balance, weight and feel.

Orvis Recon 5wt....brilliant rod. You can cast them at several shops in Calgary. Pieroway Element is also good value and a little slower than the Orvis Recon.

I've had great luck with my Orvis nippers. Lightweight and stay quite sharp.

Sorry to hear that fishinglivin.....Windows 8 was awkward to use and not hearing any rave reviews on Windows 10 from my IT department at work either. They use the term "unstable"
No critical errors on my Macbook Pro and the Yosemite OS. Apple provides Free OS upgrades (that work and are not buggy). Bought it in 2010, Runs like a top!

Stunning colour and markings on that Brown!!
