Good job today guys ! Was a fun day on the water looking forward to the trout derby !!

Looks like a tiger trout ....

I had a warranty issue with a Loomis , and they sent Canpar right to my house and Delivered a new rod back in 2 weeks , with zero charge to me ! Can't beat that.

I have the Loop Opti speedrunner as well , its 5-1/8" diameter and an 1" wide with lots of porting , but that reel picks up like no other , I use it on my switch rod in the lower niagara ! You do have to be careful not to step on it for sure , I could see it bending but I have had no issues with mine , I think you'll like the Hardy my Dad just got the 9000 I believe, for a switch rod but I haven't had the chance to play with it yet but they are kind of the same idea as the loop I think it will make a great trout reel , I'm not a fan of the Lamson reels though I've never owned one . Annnnd the Hardy will look pretty wicked on that custom without a doubt

My next reel will be a Nautilus NV 10/11 with the G-8 spool , buuut I have to save my pennies . Currently I use a Loop Opti runner on my 8 wt single hand and its been a great reel fairly good line pick up and a smooth drag it handles screaming bonefish and trout . I'm not a fan of loud click reels myself

Thanks Fang Not really looking for bonefish though , more looking to cross some more fish off the list , I have 2 maybe 3 weeks planned next year chasing bones, permit and tarpon again in cuba . I've been to Mexico as well but didn't get to fish much , I want to do the florida thing cause I only want to go for 4 days max not a whole week

.

Thank you for the help !

Without a doubt the Fl-12

I have the Itch to go fish the salt again , so at the end of october I'm planning a 4 day weekend to the St.Petes/ Tampa Bay area If anyone has ever been to the area or has done something similar can share some Info it would be great Cheap Flights ? Good guide experiance ? Good place to eat? Places to stay away from ? I will be mainly Fly fishing , but will be bring some gear rods as well , mostly interested in sight fishing Flats and mangroves Thanks for any help !

How about anyone of the ones at say a bank or grocery store ? If it's electronic it can be hooked up to a timer just like any indoor lamp timer no?

tarpon on the fly rod had my chances but got tarpon fever LOL , permit on the fly, Cobia with the fly, GT annnnnd a Mako shark http://m.youtube.com/watch?gl=CA&hl=en&client=mv-google&v=DoHXPvc5y3Y

I've seen about half a dozen boats come off the trailer onto the launch at queenston launch in the winter with ice , but never in the warmer weather , make sure you don't have those easy load teflon strips on your bunks they are pretty slick as well

Ontario residents need an Outdoors Card to fish in Ontario if they are at least 18 years old but have not reached their 65th birthday. http://www.mnr.gov.on.ca/en/Business/LetsFish/2ColumnSubPage/STEL02_164832.html

Another hit buddy LOL

Nice tank ! We were out today and was a little bit of a tough bite as well , 5 bows a sucker lol and a smallie . Water was perfect but didn't see many guys on lots of fish , we picked away but the weather was awesome so pretty tough to beat that

Thanks guys , ill have a look at my chargers and go from there , I have been there before but didn't charge anything cause I was told not to . But ill be gone for 2 weeks this time and I just wanted to be prepared

i 'm looking for a step down transformer for a upcoming trip , i know nothing about these things and im afraid to buy a cheapo and have it fry all my electronics i need to go from Cuban 220v down to 110v , something for charging cameras and stuff like that , anyone have a brand or something they have used without issues? thanks for any help

I Agree with this as well !! Ryans a great guide and works hard out there , already booked wih him again this season

Ah Man I just wrote for 5 min on my iPod about lines and rods and then deleted it as I tried to post . I'll try again on my pc another time

Graphite no way where would you ever get an idea like that .........
