FloatnFly

lol i woulda put on my cloth glove and started hand lining or try to snap my fluoro leader

hehe nope, have only caught 3 out of the creeks, river mouths and piers i have caught quite a few more

sorry but i have never 'flossed' a salmon in the creeks,all my hookups have been corner of the mouth on the inside, i have a couple of pictures that show this as well, i use pink worms when float fishing, for flies, throw in some intruder patterns for fly fishing, an 8 wt will be fine, just make sure your leader is heavy enough

if you're burning 200 litres, you're travelling a big distance. i'll put it to you in caveman speak, i can travel in my 5.3L v8 engine truck, 350km and only use about 50-60L of gas, if i was pulling a boat, might be 80-100L, now,my dad has an 86 searay, with a 4.3L V8 merc, 220hp I beleive, 21ft boat, a full tank of gas will last a little over a week, and thats boating every single day. bass boats are feather weights compared to that, they have 200hp motors, they get to a spot quickly, and then shut down and switch to their ELECTRIC trolling motor. the big motor is used only for travelling from spot to spot, as the saying goes, time is money

I'll go with the tape over the knot idea, since this is my salmon casting outfit, i'd like to keep as much braid on there as i can

so i got out to the pier last night to see if any salmon are lurking yet, no deal. but i did have an issue with my line, the spool of line started to free spin on the reel spool, 15lb braid p-line has anyone else had this issue on a spinning reel? on a side note, unspooling and respooling line with no flashlight and then trying to tie a surgeons knot in the dark, is nomt recommended lol, had to use the light from my ipod to try and see, only lost about 20yrds of line due to the birds nest from unspooling

so you're sayimg the females get smaller as they GAIN 5-10lbs in eggs???

don't be surprised to see more 40lb + salmon this summer, specially when they start to produce eggs

you can fly fish from a boat, just picked up some bass poppers lol

haha, sorry misfish, my next rod will be a 7 wt switch, either that or a 3wt for resident trout on the dry fly

you'll never be done, you have the grand and notty around you, eventually you'll have every weight rod, including spey and or switch rods

i know that they are a good product, ijust can't support them, even though they are buying out the competition ie ross reels/rods and SA

as much as that is a good deal, i can't bring myself to use an orvis

looks like it already does....won't be long before mnr handles it

LOL talk about large arbor

a 200k boat ride isn't abnormal, trent severn waterway anyone? just not on the open waters of georgian bay lol

not only this, but imagine loading your boat with all your gear as well, if it was only a 20km boat ride, go for it, 200km forget about

been hearing from the charter guys about the abundance of baitfish this year. could lead to some 4olb+ fish this summer, can';t wait to hit these guys and gals in august/september

personally i'd require them to have a valid OFAH card as well

their online customer service has been great, it the way some of the employees treat you in store that has me not wanting to shop there

just make sure people don't gut deer where you want to hunt, its a death zone and any future deer will stay away

if thats the case, then they'll have to escort me out of the store

keep in mind you will have food plots, tree stands, armed people in the bush, cleared shooting lanes and little use of your property during the hunting seasons (turkey, deer) anyone that i know of that has property they can hunt, will offer up part of their kill as a thank you

its now being forwarded to the store manager for further review
