What does one do when it’s single digits out? Well let’s break out the camera and start working with a new fly rod. As I mentioned in previous post, I have a new 1108 T3H Scott and it needed to get wet. Can’t share the video yet, need a couple more hours behind the lens with Erik, […]
Just found a new site that let’s you check the health of your lakes and rivers. http://watersgeo.epa.gov/mywaterway/ , is the link and I found out that a lake near my house was deemed polluted with mercery, good information to know. Check out your local area to make sure that your stream or lake are clean.
New rod just arrived and can’t wait to go play. Had the chance to fish the 12’8″ 8wt T3H for a couple weeks and all I had to say was WOW! So went to www.scottflyrods.com to see what other rods they made in the same graphite, and found myself a new switch rod, 1108 T3H. As […]

This Skagit line comes with a 12 foot section of T-12 seemlessly blended (no loops). In addition the running line is integrated as […]

The Titan Taper has been a standard line in my boat for a couple years, and now that it’s coming out in a new color, I have a list of waters that are going to get the Titan treatment. Thank you SA! This heavily weight forward fly line has been so good in the boat […]
