what size would you guess the one in your palm to be? I've never heard of the way you tied the one with stretch tubing over the hook and then ribbed, but it does sound like a very effective method, thanks for sharing.

This is a great tip, thanks for sharing.

It is hotter than... well, lets just say that on the 10 day forcast the lowest high temp is 102. Please send rain. The weathermen are comparing the current drought and temps to the dustbowl of the late '30's.

I've used the Bass Pro Flouro down to 4lb and had good luck, but I prefer the Orvis 7x

Fishing Hurts - Peta Link on OA Homepage
BWO replied to gonefishin's topic in General Angling Discussion Archives
OK, I guess it is blocked at work, I can see it from home. Funny, count me in for a nickel. -
Makes sense to me, I have never seen a trout at my feet in a "wild" stream.

Fishing Hurts - Peta Link on OA Homepage
BWO replied to gonefishin's topic in General Angling Discussion Archives
OK, I don't see the add, I have looked on the home page and must just be missing it, can someone be specific with where it is? And the People Eating Tasty Animals (PETA) is FUNNY, where do I join? -
I too had never heard of this tactic until this thread. My $.02 on it, it's kind of comical to read all the theories on this. I'd put it up there with kissing your sister, it may not be illeagal, and that doesn't make it right, but if someone sees you, you could be in for a good ribbing.

In Oklahoma, all stations are now pre pay because of drive offs.

Hooking Mortality of Trout: Barbed vs. Barbless
BWO replied to SilverMallard's topic in General Flyfishing Topics
Imagine if we put this much energy and thought into pollution or hunger, we could eliminate the world's problems. There is a time a place for everything, and while it adds to the challenge for adults, it only provides frustration for kids. Be a great man and build one another up, don't tear each other down. -
I agree with OnTheFly, I'm also in OK and all I have seen are rediculous billboards and traffic congestion around the casino's. There hasn't been any talk of civic improvements resulting from these "entertainment locations".

Wow, those stamps are amazing, her in OK all I can remember is something that looked like an S&H green stamp, no colorful artwork. They are really something to look at.

Favorite Taneycomo Dries?
BWO replied to SilverMallard's topic in Fly Tying Discussions & Entymology
I have to second the mosquito. I have caught more trout at Taney with this fly than any other dry/emerger. I find it works especially well in very overcast conditions near the bank. Here is an example: Here is an example: Here is an example: Here is an example of the effectiveness of the mosquito:

Thanks everyone, I now have a 9' 4wt. Sage to go with my 8.5 5wt and 9ft 8wt TFO's. And as luck would have it, I am heading off to the Carson National Forest in New Mexico tomorrow to break it in. The trip is one that was planned earlier but cancelled due to restrictions in forest due to lack of rain. WooHoo!!!

Question - As an out of stater, I have always purchased a non resident license, however I was told by the person at WallyWorld that I didn't need a trout stamp even after I told him that I would only be fishing for trout and asked him if he was sure about this, is this true or untrue? I have not been able to find anything that contradicts what I was told. I know in Oklahoma, a non resident must purchase a trout stamp in addition to a license.

My lovely wife has decided to get me a new rod. She's the best!! Anyway, I can't decide what kind to get. I have decided to get an 8' 4 wt. model, and have looked at the Winston Vapor. I currenlty have a TFO 8'6" 5 wt. One thing that I am concerned with would be the fast action of the Winston. Another possible rod is the Sage Launch with a med-fast action. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Good Morning, A former lurker here, I have to say that I appreciate the clean content and readability of this site, also that this is a family friendly site. I do enjoy a little banter now and then, but in a fun way. It is more important to help build up than tear down.
