I got broke in the right way. My friends Dad, WWII Jar Head, said to me: I'll take you in to this place but if you tell anyone else about it, or come back there with out me I will kick your A**. I...

I grab the maribu at the thick end of the quill and peel down the side of the feather to rip off a strip of maribu/quill, then I rip off the remaining bit of quill from the fluff. Its just a gob of...

I don't know off hand what 6011 grade alloy is used for or why, there are just too many AL alloys to keep track of. I suggest looking first at...

No simple answer for this one. People want all the good qualities in a reel material, high strength, tough, lightweight, and attractive. There are many grades of extruded aluminum bar stock for reel...

I thought the state was broke? Financially, that is. Pun intended. sad indeed. Harely

Thats a trophy fish on this water! Beautiful colors and markings with few spots forward, very nice. Harley

Why build in the desert ???? David, Mike Darian permit me to blow off a little steam here. Bugsy Segal, Meyer Lansky and other westcoast Mobbies, being crooked but optimistic learned that certain...

Do It!!! Jay I finished testing the braided loops tied your way and have not had a single loop or connection fail. The fly line always breaks first. I also tried Max Garths coaxial loop for making...

Hey Ed, The same thought went through my head too. But then its the DFG that is doing this and Bill is only stating the fact. There will be some fishers standing by to take advantage of the feeding...

Well we got their attention now and they are focused right on our weak link, the Striper. Call it a surge if like, but this is just the start of new and dirtier tactics to attack us through our...

Ed, Alls well that ends well. Glad you told about it, it will keep all of us a little safer. Experience can be a heavy handed teacher. Harley

Thanks Jay, Earlier today I tested two of your loops for tensile strength. I tied these before I got your instructions. I put your loops on the ends of a 30 inch piece of fly line. I don't know what...

Hey Jay, I need a few hints for how you make your loops. My experience: After pushing the needle up the braid and out the side I hooked the end of the braid and pulled it back through its self to...

Jay, Your ideas are good. Fly tieing from a master is hard to beat. I can't wait to see you video. Harley

Hey No problema, Your opinion is as valid as anyone elses thats the fun of it all. But for me the second nail knot is so easy to tie on that is certainly not over kill any more having a spare tire....

Darian, I don't think banket statements apply here, grin, unlesss you know exactly how the other person goes about forming and placing the loops and knots on the line and braid. There are plenty of...

First, Thanks to all for your responses they were exactly what I wanted, Tony, I used CA glue for its penetration properties, and very sparingly. But, now I see it can do harm, so no more. As far as...

Well, it's mid-winter now so there is time for tackle question or two. For those of you who hunt stripers and find the need to change lines or heads frequently, you might just be putting braided...

Mike, I am impressed that your boat planes with the 8 hp motor. This will indeed open up new fishing opportunities that only a wife could regret. Tight lines.

Mike, You all done good at the meeting, I am glad that people are asking for reparations and future relief. Whats next, is there further meetings scheduled or forums planned to mitigate or are the...

I wish to thank David Lee and also the others who helped saved fish at Prospect. As you know, I was more than a little pissed with the BoR, and complained to them directly like a lot of others did, I...

Their mea culpa was followed by threats to those public would be fish rescuers. Trespass llaws would be inforced. Its an attempted coverup. They don't want us to find any dead endangered species in...

Hey Ed, I hope you found a solution to the line fouling problem while fishing from your pram. i think each solution has plus and minus to be considered. A trick you can try if you still need a fix is...

I am with mike... We need to be together on this, and Ed, your rant was great stuff. We need to stay mad about this for a while. If we keep giving, soon there will be no stripers left to fight for....

Mike and Ed, I too am saddened by our fishing community, save for a few right minded people like yourselves. In panic, I contacted news 10 by email about this late last night and have not heard a...
