  1. I have No boat knowledge to add, but if you do want to use a fly rod in it get a stripping basket. Not the kind that sits on your waist. A kitchen trash can works just fine and works as "storage" when your not stripping line into it. Hot gluing some stiff weed eater cord into the bottom will help prevent line tangles.
  2. I'm not going to cheat everyone and will try to sort it out all that if together send nine you get nine. If you send twelve you get twelve. I only say nine Because other than yourself there are only nine other tyers. You'll be getting duplicates if so.
  3. The only issue I've had with putting ostrich in a loop is I can never get it super clean where I tie it off, but with practice I'm sure it would work. However that would be cutting a ton of fibers off to put in the loop.
  4. Oh, a fly rod can cover a lot of water, just not at the sheer speed of a guy through lipless cranks or spinner baits. They never stop running the trolling motor. Maybe it is just me though but I have tried it, and I was having to cast as far ahead of where we were going as away from the boat just sothat I wouldn't be dragging fly line half way into my retrieve.
  5. well... looks like if I ever tie these up I'll be taking a swim if I snag one.
  6. This. This is cool. How many flies can you get from a plume up front?
  7. The only close call with a CM came a few years back. Some friends and I were fishing the current and were pulling up to tie the bow of the little jon to the base of a rootwad sticking out of the water in the middle of the river so we could fish the area. I had reached in and grabbed a piece of root and looked in to see that mouth wide open just a couple inches from my hand. I think I jumped the length of the boat all the way to the back.
  8. You can, but with only ten people 9 total should do the trick.
  9. No kidding. It's a freaking fly rod Senko. Anyone could literally "make" these. Why anyone would drop $15 on a dozen of those turds needs to re-think some life priorities... However if you look at the ads pictures, some SERIOUS Gill raping going in. For reak, I love fly fishing but that just pisses me off. Was that one guy nymphing with one of these with at 8wt.?
  10. From my understand, and not being an expert in theory the rods under eight feet are allowed in some tournaments but even them some tours fly not allow fly fishing. The original idea wasn't to rule out fly fishing but to keep guys from flipping with really long fly rods with a casting or spinning reEl on them instead. Though even if it is allowed it'd be hard to really covered enough water tl be practical in a tournament. But with the nature of flies and fly fishing some of those guys could probably clean up during the spawn in shallow water.
  11. RFD's are in!
  12. Except most tournaments don't allow fly rods.
  13. Why not take both lines? they don't take up much space.
  14. I saw one on Saturday that was actually in pretty good shape cruising along. Sunk back deep when it saw the boat
  15. They are flat out playing good ball. Plain and simple.

    They did look crisp, at least the first teamers did. We will see. I think they will have a pretty good season.
  17. Even worse.... I still had a lone eye that remained with the packaging. There was only one missing. Biggest. Pet. Peeve. Ever.
  18. My buddies dad and uncle rented a G3 from lilley's on Saturday. We had a lot of fun. They were catching fish drifting gulp eggs from fall creek down to Lilley's. I had a half dozen follows on streamers when I could get a cast all the way to the bank. Was a lot of fun, and moved quite a few fish.
  19. One left to tie. Out of thread and eyes, of course.
  20. I almost did, but the subject has just been beat to death. It doesn't sound like I would agree with you, or you with me. So back to the topic at hand.
  21. If we were to motor up to fall creek or so and drift down we would probably be good then?
  22. Don't be starting all of this again.
  23. SW MO has just seen a stupid amount. Like it's crazy for real.
  24. If they do end up pushing a ton of water through and we are going to fish any way from the boat. Where would you guys recommend putting in at? I've never boated taney but, the guys are bringing down a boat and want to fish with it, sounds like it might be necessary any way. I figure they will be just drifting crawlers etc, and I'm probably going to throw some bigger streamers and see if the high water has anything stirring.
  25. These guys are starting to make it happen. Fortunately, and I guess unfortunately ESPN still has yet to really take notice. Let's keep it on the DL!
