Where do you manage to get these strips of foam from? I can only ever find blocks, thanks

I picked up some lon

I picked up some long shank, offset, size 2 hooks which were not specifically fly hooks. The offset bend needed to be straightened but they are a perfect length for what I wanted - basically a topwater gurgler lookalike for Bass. Using a yellow one I snagged 4 Bluegill in rapid succession when nothing else would work at all (dog days of summer and all that). Curiously the Bluegill don't care that they can't fit the Plipper in their mouths! Have yet to entice a bass but it's early days. Can't believe how simple these are to construct, yet the action both on top and when they dive (coz of the lip) is excellent. Let's have some more off the wall ideas.

That's a really beau

That's a really beautifull trout!

How many turns for v

How many turns for various sizes of mono or line? How about when you are attaching a 50# test "bite" leader to a 12# test "class" tippet?

Thank you

Personnaly i have been using a Sage RPLXi road #6 for the last years. I like this rod because it is a little bit a stiff rod. You need that to play the fish and to cast when you have a strong wind. I mostly use floating lines or intermediate, depending on how deep I want to fish (can als be controlled by the weight of your fly). My leader is about 6 ft of .50 and next 6 ft of .25/.20.

A for reels I used a Dragonfly (lots of plastic so no rust problems). Most importance is cleaning (directly after use in Saltwater). Cleaning and greasing.

I tied some of these

I tied some of these up, went fishing on the South Fork of the Snake River south of Jackson Hole, Wy and caught quite a few fish in an afternoon. Nice pattern.

Jay - actually it wa

Jay - actually it was a bamboo rod made by a friend from Naples. Great Rods with a flamed finish. Medium fast action - it's a 4/5 weight but I was fishing with a 3 weight silk line.

Wow, that was a beautifull reports! And the pictures of those "red dots"...brought back tons of memories of the little rivers I used to fish when I was younger, in Italy.

Thanks, Dave

Hello everybody,

Hello everybody,

Yes! I have my new saltwater #8 rod.
I have bought the Sage Launch. It casts very very nice and it's very nice made.

The Sage cast a lot better than my old Orvis Deschutes #7.

Thanks for all your posts.

Bye,

Martin,

I am looking forward to your article about Fly boxes.
I've been looking around to buy a nice streamer/saltwater/sea trout fly box but so far I can't find the right one.

Finally got the chance to try

Finally got the chance to try out these little blue Chroni's today on Bellos lake. Although the weather was a little off and on all day, overall it was good fishing. I caught a number of rainbows that topped out at around 20 inch. The largest on the blue chroni's was about 14 inch.
