still for sale

steve, I sent you a pm.

I have a 3-rod Titan Rod Vault for sale. It is new in unopened box. The current model retails for 350. I ended up getting it as a very nice gift but have one already. $175 firm. It's a great deal. I love mine. It can hold my 10'6" rod without breaking down. It is too big to ship. I am in West Plains and would go a reasonable distance if needed.

I talked to Tyler this weekend. He is a really quality person. If you are down on the NFOW you might offer to take him out he is just starting and is looking for some fly fishing pointers. If you don't have his contact info, I could probably get in touch through his parents which are my neighbors down there. I'm glad Tyler found your rig and not someone else like the rigs I've lost.

I think I reaped some of the rewards of your labor this weekend. Very much appreciated. I caught several browns and returned them to their rightful place above Patrick. aaron

I will be wet wading if the sun is out. I think it is going to be low 80's and cooler with rain, though. I to be honest don't find so much it is the fly but the day and the location as far as the fishing goes. sometimes, I cycle through flies and I finally come up with a winner. most days it just pertains to being where they are when they're active. so try the standards and move a good bit unless of course you can visually see feeding fish that are ignoring your stuff. i'll be out maybe we'll bump into each other have a good one aaron

I haven't fished nofork dam in a couple of years due to the changes in the runs and that it gets so crowded so easily now with the lawn chair crowd. if you cover different types of water you will probably note the pattern. And, they will probably be in the same spots next time. The runs have changed a lot up there since i was fishing it regularly or i would give you some spots to try.

I seriously hope you are just trolling for responses. I can tell you with great certainty that it is not safe to drink from the rivers/springs. if you love the water just buy a 20 dollar filter that fits on top of your water bottle and knock yourself out. it may save you thousands for a hospital stay getting over bloody foul diarrhea. i see beavers up and down the river all the time right where you are talking about drinking from. hence the "beaver fever" post earler. past results are not an indicator of future performance as the stupid mutual fund commercials say (as it pertains to) the "i haven't gotten sick yet argument." and as for the "you drink water every time you swim" argument, you have a much greater chance of fighting off a small amount of a bacteria/virus/protozoan than a larger amount. there is always a threshhold of the amount of orgamisms it takes to get you sick. that is why generally people don't get sick from swimming. I say generally b/c when water is heavily contaminated people do get sick simply from swimming in it (read lake of the ozarks and their e-coli problems) and when i say "ecoli problems" read "someone elses or animals S@#$ inside your body. it takes something like 1-3 cholera "germs" to make you deathly ill. keep that in mind. it doesn't take very much of the wrong stuff to be wishing you didn't drink from that pretty little spring that drips out of the rocks.

Agreed a second downstream horn would be great much needed on the norfork at ackerman.
