  1. Danattherock Great post. If you want a decent outfit look at the lowend Stcrox about $100 for a 81/2 ft 5 weight Okuma makes a decent reel for about $45 spend your money on your flyline lowend lines give highend headaches RIO makes a great trout line. Fly fisherman can on your local water will be the best help they know whats working best in your neck of the woods.As for as fly's find a few that is working in your area learn to use them well then expand on them. At the same time remember a slite change can make a differance. That will come in time. Meanwhile if anyone makes it down to Alabama (or anywhere else south I may be headed that way) give me a shout and bring your waders and trout rod i'll tie up a few more midges and we'll fish for some Dixie Rainbows. Ps: Dixie Rainbows are the same as all other just you have to say Dang when you catch 1 and Darn if you lose 1 LOL
  2. Anarexic Wooly bugger : Use a 12 or 14 steamer hook with olive tread tie on the xx small chain eye's. You can use bead head or cone head but here I find silver chain produces the size and amount of fish. Then whap thread back to the bend then tie in a small amount of olive marabou let stick back 1/2 to 3/4 of a inch past hook. Now tie in a peice of xsmall red wire and 3 peacock herls then carry thread back to the eye's. Now coat thead with head glue. ( If herls arnt glued down fish will brake them and they will come unwound) Now wrap herls to the eye's and tie off. Now wrap wire to the eye's giving about 1/8 of a inch or a little less between wraps tie off. Now make a head with the eye's and a collar right behind the eye's. We only have one trout stream here in Alabama but this little bugger has produced fish for me in North Carolina and Wyoming it almost makes it fell like your cheating. PS: Sorry I have no way to post a pic.
  3. Anarecksik (Cant spell for sh--) wooly booger size 14 trailed by a size 20 brassy Myself and 2 others landed 62 total sat. on this. im me ill give you the set up to tie this bugger
  4. I've just picked up a 81/2 ft Steelhead Conv. rod I want to use to throw 3/8 to 5/8 rubber and plugs. I'll use it mostly in the river for stripe and some flats fishing for trout and red in Florida. I'll also spool it with 15lb braid and would like to get 200 to 300 yds on the spool. I've got $100 to $200 to spend on it. Thanks for any Help.
  5. I've had Labs most of my life and about 6 to 8 months they start acting up like most teenagers. This what i do and it has worked on everyone of them. Start every training session on the lead and start with heal, sit, stay just basic stuff. I do this till the pup starts to yawn ( he bored). Then I leave the lead on and start letting him retreive if he acts up I get the lead bring him back to where I was standing and make him heal right there. When I think he is tired of this then I start the retreive again. If he acts up again then we go all the way back to the basics. Then back to retreives. I have a lead and collar that is just for training and the feild they will learn that when this collar is on it is time to go to work I try to buy 3 of these collars 3 differant sizes and all the same so as they grow the work collar doesnt change. Also I go at the pups speed not mine if at any time they sit or lay down with the dumby and play or chew it I remove the collar and dumby and we just play. If I have to scold him I grab the skin on each side of his neck look him in the eye , change the tone of my voice and let him know i'm not happy ( never shake the pup) I then sit on the ground and as soon as he comes up and trys to put his nose under my chin I let him then we play again letting him know its ok and I love him. ( If he trys to jump on me or put his head over mine I scold him and sit again) As for as the kitchen if they enter the kitchen I use the same tone in my voice and point the way out until the leave. I have never had to use a ecollar and have had some really fine labs but i've also seen some that needed it its a lot of work for the first 1 to 2 years but its worth every bit of time. The Lab is the only breed I know of that trained like this that you can put 1 coolar on him and he's a worker change it and he's a family member all others Ive tryed was ether a working dog or a family pet not both. Good Luck on Your Pups. Ps. You can spend a couple of years training a dog and have a great freind and 20 years training a Kid and they will still be a screw up! Give me my Lab any day.
  6. Ive decided to get into Kayak Fishing i've been looking at a Ocean Kayak Scrambler. It will be used in lake stream's for striper and in North Florida Bays for trout& redfish. Can I get your thoughts on the pro's and con's of this model and any rigging tips? Thank for all Comments

  8. Will you take 48 and include shipping?
  9. Ill take it pm your address and ill get you a money order out
  10. Set the spool tension so that when you hold the rod straight out and release the button the weight doesnt move but a slite shake of the wrist will start it dropping and when it hits the ground the spool stops start there and it will be less frustrating and take baby step.
  11. If it falls through with OD ill take them at asking price
  12. Will you take $25 for the 4 small poppers and the lower left black plug black plug ?
  13. If no agreement is made with C-5 will you split out and sell the 4 smaller poppers?
