u got it dude.. pelicans seem too have them nailed down in regards too catching them... have seen it done many nights... im sure there are other problems too but its amazing too watch on te bow.... drives me nuts personally.. wish we could take the pelicans down legally..... i hardly see whites compared too my youth... useto be easy too get dozens of them.. now only certain time of year when they are stacked up can u get a decent number of them....

dope flies! i liked that clip in skagit master.. and the link from speypages is badass! i prefer seal fur for the bump and polaebear for te collar aswell!!!! but its all in waht u make of it! look at all th bugger varients out there... same dealio!!

i like how they talk aobut the bow in that one too .. sure the bow is blue ribbon and has the higher amount of guides on it but they are all catch n release.. so why would it matter whens in the flesh???? i kinda like the hyp tho! make all rivers catch n release only!

u make a excellent point dude.. wonder if they have done any studies on these water bodies too see if the mercury gets into th resivoirs fish too?

biggest ive seen barnes is about 3 lbs 21 inches... big browns can behave similar before they wake up! ive bin in a pod of cracker fish before then hooked a big brown who played possum for a minute then finally burned me on a good run/jump/roll!

drive the highway too hell up too ft .mac dude.. had too pull over for halfdozen cop cars leading the way lastyear for a mega load being brought up .. was the biggest object trucked into that area on record i guess.. was all over the radio.. had 4 semis hooked up together on front and 4 hooked up on back in a box formation with a couple hundred foot load, not sure how many trailers of a spaceship/refinery looking thing.. was unreal.. took up 2 lanes!!! crazy co-ordination too them truckers all on radios too make sure tehy didnt break the braces bolting all the trucks together!!

u could try manning up buckaroo! i stick 5 or 6 laters of duct tape n kick back watch te flames game n wrap em in my hand!!!!!!

its all in what you like dude.. all i do is production tie.. started the year off with 200 chenille worms n 200 leeches, then too 300 midge pupae n larvae, onto caddis larvae n pupae 200 of each, 100 stone nymph, 550 copperjohns in a few sizes n colors, 150 princes, 75 boatman... and a few other things.. then did close too 1000 dries for the bow n cutties.. whenever i get burnt out i tie random stuff for a night or two.. then back too work... hardest part its staying focues.. it does get hella redundant.. but if u only take out those materials n hooks n foce it u can have 50-100 flies a night done in no time... i recommend too any of my budies too force yourself too start with a pack of 50 hooks n 50 beeds n just make that one fly or maybe 25 of each 2 different colors.. so on n so forth.... u get really good at doing flies quick when u jsut did (25 copperjohns 12 in black n 25 in copper, then do em in 14, then 16 and progressivly work down too get good at te small stuff) i fish around 15 different nymphs and 25 different dries but my n my clients use lots of them... do a search u will find out that the "top 10" nymphs dries streamers etc has bin covered a few times...

remeber too hang your fly lines.. 10 feet or so from the rafters in your basement... by some heat.. but not too hot.. i find it helps seap out the water soaked into the core and u dont halfto chop off some of your taper if you give it a good week or two~! then u can seal up a dry core!

lmao that was a fun day!

bang on flyon!!!!!! they are way more active in the winter and fight better compared too winter trout!

congrats bezz for winning decembers fly of the month contest!!!

how many goals did we get the last 3 games? were are our top 3 lines.. almost 120 shots in 3 games n we only get 4 goals..... 2 of em by a d man... not kippers fault......

hey norm i will be in the whistler flyfishing booth! i will bring a care package!!!!

last day too vote yall!!!!!!!!!! shes a tightrace so far!!!!!

sad too hear.. keep me posted on your werabouts norm i got a line or two forsure and a bunch of flies/boxes too..

if i dont really need it that day than its unusual too carry it! like my lucky coyote tooth!

yea they make it wes but it has a new name!!!

for me nymphing the bow/ hopper dropper and any single handed spey casting and overhand shooting line i love would be the loop opti stream and airflo 40+ my top two dryfly lines would be the loop opti stillwater and the rio gold! for streamers the only line i use in 3 different sink rates would be the loop pike booster!i find tips on floater sink if u dont take care of them.. on any line! if u dont seal the end water will seep into the core!! its not the lin emakers fault! even after a hour or two of fishin it will sink!

im with jj here.. i dont really fault kippers play at all.. how many games has he kepts us in a 2-1 (3-1 with a empty netter) till we get the empty netter.. every couple of games he does let in some weaker goals.. but he dosnt play positional as much as tries too track the puck.. if he cant see it he dosnt really react (like other butterfly golies who just play angles regardles if they see the shot or not) with that style he does let in some goals that make u want too smash teh tv! it can be frustrating too lose a game like we did against colorado and a few other teams this year.. but kipper has won us more than a few games this year and will continue to do so.. by far our most consistant player all year!!! imho he is worth teh cash money!! if kipper went down te flames would be F*CKED so why harsh him so much?

hey dude like others mentioned they are just a cheap line.. i have fished those lines for a little while in highschool not a bad line for 30 bucks.. personally i havnt liked any of the nymph tapers or the pike and bass tapers from a few brands... but mainly for speycasting with my single handed lines

from what ive seen fng the peach classic taper is the same as the mint classic taper.. most line companies come in a few different colors.. one line make i use the most would be airflo.. they are probably the most durable lines out there!but i only use a few of there line tapers! so im not sure how the rest fish

it is a pretty dope system dude.. it offers a great spectrum of fishing thats forsure all in one line!

here are two pics of danhunts flies i will be using in the poll..

nicely done dude! thanks for posting!
