Bah. The old IMX graphite has such a high modulous that they can become quite brittle, especially when exposed to heat or cold. Lifetime yes, unconditional no. I hear Sage discontinued their unconditional lifetime warranty as well.. Guess they got overwhelmed with repairs.. Did they at least give you a new pole? cheers HD

I hear ya. I recently brought a friend of mine to one of my steelhead holes. We had brought some refreshments, and I had stashed my empties in my tackle bag. When we returned to the car, I noticed that he didn't have his empties with him. I had stashed mine in the trunk and he casually grabbed them and tossed them into the bushes.. Not something I'd make a huge fuss about, but I can tell ya, the next spot I take him to will have trash bins, and I'll point them out to him. Hey that felt great. Let's get a load off our chests! cheers HD

Excellent! Very thorough. cheers HD

Swweeeet. I'll take those over the sight of dead grass anyday. cheers HD

Nice. Ders pike in dem waters. Hope they keep at it! thanx for the read! cheers HD

Oooh that's a major pain in the arse. My sympathies to you Rick, or anyone who has had to go through with it. It's like tossing a photo album in the fire, you won't get em back! What about a partition?? I've still yet to figure it out... I'm running on Vista Home Basic and had the blue screen of death the other day because I had turned off my computer accidentatly while symantec updates were being made. I was able to retrieve pictures that I had saved since my last back up, but everything else was lost! Do I need an IT background to do this? I'm told it's pretty simple. cheers HD

Now that's what I call gettin 'er done! Sweet sweet perchies... mmmmm cheers HD

Excellent! All you need is a stout 9ft 8 or 9 wheight (you can cast longer with an 8 wheight, but a 9 wheight packs a better punch for casting those wet socks). Leaders may come with a with shock tippet, but making your own is fairly easy. 80lb Flurocarbon is a good replacement, but adds a bit more bulk and flies may not be as boyant in the water. Flies include bunny leeches, deceivers, zonkers, surface and sub-surface deerhair patterns. Get 'er done! tight loops HD

Tiger Fish?? What did I win?!

Horrible... but awesome too!! Here's to many future succesful hunts and BBQs ahaah cheers HD

Excellent! That's a huge taimen. Good to know it was released, considering where it was caught. I've seen reports of such fish being caugnt, one such report in the Post, to which the angler had claimed to land on tackle, but it had the obvious scars from a gill net, so I don't think the brute made it back to the water... An encouraging sign.. Thanks Solo! cheers HD

mmmmm.. He's quite dextrous with that right hand no?... oooh and quite the lion tamer in that tank top isn't he Grant?! (ensuing guffaws) P.S. Did ya get my message budday?

Sweet! But ya might wanna be cautious when it comes to specifics... I know some float fisher folk who are exremely protective of this creek.. That one doesn't need any more pressure than it already gets. Might wanna save yourself the flack.. I can feel tremors! It'd be nice to see some fins though! tight loops HD

Hey Brian! Long time budday.. Do you have an Airmiles account?? If you're looking for hotel accomadions, ! may be able to help ya out! cheers HD
