nice job skitterwalk. sure looks like fun. hey, if you coat those dry flies in some floatant goop, the bream will hit them too.

i will look in to that because they have a hard time getting that popper into their mouth some times. But you can see that wasn't a problem today. :lol:

well i have much more stealth because it casts two to three times longer because of the weight forward line and the extra foot of rod length. I am pleased with my purchase :D

glad to hear it. also, i believe greg mentioned it, but in case he didn't. there's will be a fly fishing / fly tying / fly casting booth set up this weekend between 10-4 for the heritage day festival at the lighthouse. there'll be some good info out there.
