The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF forum is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads and reply to old ones. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Mooching and trolling for salmon in Puget Sound was easy - I need some advice and explanation of all the types of Spey lines available. There are so many brands to choose from our local fishing supply dealers.
I think there are six different types of Spey lines - but under what circumstances do you uses each and how different are the brands between themselves?
The titanium fly reels I am making can be made heavier or lighter than the aluminums- but how do I determine the spooled weight between each type of Spey lines? And which weight or length of rods will be "best fit" for each?
Mooching for 60# Kings off Point No Point was all strength of gear and arms - this is quite different - please help me figure this out.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this. See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.
