  1. i lack disciplin...u dotn watch southpark dude...need too visit the "shittywock"
  2. yea i here ya TM...but all around im lovin the elixer for my switch 7112 and both speys 8116 blue and my 8126 alchemy...the rods are really starting too rock now...exspecially with the poly leader kit too match!
  3. bang on harps bang freakin on! i yaka dissaprin
  4. check ur pm's dude
  5. sounds great don
  6. hey dude i foudn that with my single handers i had too tape them mainly because they were designed for more overhand casting and not twisting the blank while rolcasting so they fell apart on me..with the spey rods i taped for a while but stopped latley mainly becasue i feel my mechanics are getting better and im gettin lazy when the fingers are numb....with the switch i cant see it being a problem but if u notice that your rod sections are twisting ide strongly recommend taping....it makes the blank never twist and casts 100% everytime..and you dont halfto worry abotu snapping the ferrals......i really like the tape...looking into wax...will keep ya updated...wax have tons of grip so i could see it being hard too take apart if ur one too jam the rod together and make it "stay there good"...
  7. definetly the most memorable fish this year was "angus"! i will never forget...i lost this brute several times for the past 2 years...took the red midge size 20... all teh tence screamin, cringing and yellin as he swam/flopped over teh dipped net..then silence once he was in the net a few seconds later.... as for most memorable trip.....theres too many too count..had tons of amazing days with good friends, new friends, clients, family, board members etc....thanks
  8. i stopped gilling fish holding them horizontal or not mainly because you are stressing and bending ligaments that are not suppose too be ebnt that far...bass like mentioned above in rule 10 in the ontario regs. are the most abused..there mouth is a quick open shut joint not mega spread and let the whole body weight straing the jaw...back too holding trout in teh gills..if tehy struggle your fingers are thrashing around behind the gillplate and in teh gill tissue thus damaging there breathing system....once you stick ur finger in the gills and let teh fish rest u are stressing the fish...try it on urself dude
  9. you could try knotsence but i would say stick too glue..
  10. nice work dude
  11. hey harps jstu picked up a few clw's and they looks great...lightweightr with tons of backing/ line capacity...they look pretty tough too me and are a steal at the price...
  12. liek brent said adding glue too teh tail will give it more of a "backbone" and have a better fishy profile..i dotn use glue because i like all the action "twin" tails give off the back end...its a preference thing i suppose..sometimes my tails swing around teh hook bend but its no big deal if u check ur rig before casting...
  13. lmao freakin awsome..my a nd a few cousins one summer did something similar..we were "prarie gull fishin" tho....chesapeak fishin was hilarious too!

  20. hey al swivels are no problem on teh turn overs with me..ive bin using a taped leaderat about 6 ft indi to swivel....as for sink tips your intermediate will be fine..t 6 and 8 are good in swinging down and across situations in teh 9 and 12ft range ive bin messing around with if you are casting more upstream giving the fly more time too sink you may be finding bottom faster...i find it really slows down the swing fishing down with a longer sinktip tho..when im doing some stripping when streamer fishing i use 3 ft of t14 too get it down and have a nice sink on the pause, i find longer sinktips stripping generate more slack and have the flies ride off the bottom a little more....
  21. sneak one more in there....
  22. heres a few of my fav's....
  23. hey dude i like too fish them in a 16 and 14...black rubber leg cj's are the cat meow...winter blacks sallies and little greens yellows and browns are more long and slenger..like a toothpic...nice ties dude!
  24. hey norm i dont have one but a few friends of mine do and they are great..one thing i liked better was it had a higher "shock" resistant casing comapred too teh pentax..1 metre versus 2 i think or something like that...has a killer macro and all the other functions....both are amazing cameras.........
