  1. had a stellar month dryflyfishing.. got out prettymuch every night and found some nice fish feeding on caddis and sometimes mayflies.... wish it wasnt coming too an end but what can you do... found a few brutes ever few nights but there was always tons of teenie boppers too play with! got out too hunt bullies a few times with LK... past few days have bin stellar chuckin streamers aswell... ended teh month with a bang wiht a brute broonie just before dark messing around with a few new ties! hope everyones august went well and ehres too a dope september!
  2. that looks pretty dope cam.. was thinking about checking a cde store and getting a cd wallet with zipper pouches or check out hwolesale or suomehting and get a spinnerbait wallet.. serves the same function if u can find one at a local shop
  3. the 2 and 4wt multis are unreal stick for the price of 300+ ish.. i have 7 multi single handers so far and dig em all.. most of my main single handers and client sticks are loolp multis! buddy has teh 3 wt.. bin diggin em all year for dryflyin in teh bow with the 4 or 5wts and cuttty streams with the 2... would strongly recommend em and holler at brian at whistler fly he will get one out too ya in a few days after ordering no probs!
  4. that vid creeps me out.. seen i tposted a few times on this board and others.. never ever wear glasses and i wana pick up a pair of clear ones for after dark.....
  5. sck with the 3 and the 6wt dude its the feeshin rods u will need too target the feesh u fish most often.. if u find that u may be going steelie fishing salmon fishing or down south in the flats go pick up something down the road when taht trip comes...... tfo works if its what u want IMHO but sages are nice g-loomis makes great stuff too i love loop and there are half dozen other companies that make sick sticks too!
  6. a fun time... loave that opti coast.. never thought i could toss a whole line almost with one switch cast! gotta get one soon!
  7. lmao! c u there tommorow taeke!
  8. DOPE report taeke!!!

  10. lmao dope dude! naps are dope too! took one last week mid day after i got sick of dealing with the rafters
  11. lmao lets jstu do it at bankside bridge then dave and i can holla atcha out of harms way from up there...... p.s. whitetail sucks! fish teh bow!
  12. yup ide abe game for a few rounds aswell.... if not more
  13. tons of beer! just kidding....... jsut show up dude and toss a few lines!
  14. will try too attend this one.. got a switch, scandi and skagit all rigged up too toss
  15. try setting up with a shock look... (some slack in oyur line by your rod and reel) once u get teh hit drop the slack then set.. give the fish a chance to suck the fly back.. it could be the lateness on your hooksetting too. i prefer a strip set when streamer fishing.... but there could bea bunch of factors why u arnt hooing fish... it might jstu be a territorial responce too.
  16. had good luck with the hopper dropper today tight too the banks but once the rain stuck around i swung some streamers with some taps btu it wasnt stellar like the morning... best ebt is too rememebr fish's metabolism will drop with colder water temps.. baro pressure does affect fish to but they are still feeding u jstu halfto switch up your tactics and possibly location.. focus on teh slower water...
  17. ahh come on smitty u should know what it means being a former teacher .. have any younger teenage kids or grandkids kickin around? ask them... but really... i totally dissed dryfly because he take the worst photos

    Pics June/july

    looks liek a doep trip dude! some sick lookin water tehre.. thanks for posting
  19. i will second that! take care and tightlines dude!
  20. super phat tight dope dude! amazing shots.. htanks for sharing
  21. yup they both ahve the rapid fire functions MTB .. LK is talking about interval shooting.. i use it alot.. u can set it up too take a pic every 10 seconds or 15seconds or 1 minutes etc anywere from 2-100 pics.. so u dont gotta do much other than set it up take the first shot then start fishing.. the digi will take the pic automatically every (how every many seconds u choose) automatically, hten turn itseld off n start back up take a pic and so on and so forth... get some sick action shots that way same with casting photos...
  22. i ahve the w30 optio and love it.. have friend who have both are they are both sick digi's one things the optio has like LK mentioned is the interval shooting same with a bunch of photo editing/picture stuff in teh camera that the olympus dosnt... same with teh macros way better and easier too do...but the olympus has a better shock proof, does take a better night shot and has a way better zoom if i had too do it again i would probably take the pentax but the olympus does have a few things iwith i had so its a tough call they are both sick cameras IMHO
  23. thats dope dude! thanks for sharing
  24. working at a shop for hte past few months it blew me away at the different poundage for the X system the tippet and leader companies use. so from what i have gathered the manufacturers are using the x system too rate the diametre of the tippet on tehre tapered leaders and there tippet spools too keep every the similar... and the biggest difference i have found is what you see iceman, pretty much all leaders and tippets have the same diametre for 3X or whatever use wish too use as your control... but! the poundage rating can be off from company too company by as much as 3 or 4 lbs. we have about 5 or 6 different comanies in our shop and on one 5x tapered leader pack the difference was huge ranging form 2.5lb too 4.4 lb depending on what tippet you use with the rest in between like 2.7, 3, 3.4 , 4.0 etc. long story short its best too buy the same leader tippet material as your leader so you dont have a huge difference in the LB test... its best too scan all teh packs by every company and pick the "best" for yourself... its not suprising either that some of teh cheaper stuff is the weaker material while the expencive companies are the tougher material with teh same X grade... hope that helps dude
  25. hells yea brother! a friendly hello goes a long way
