Pretty amazing that the “fishermen” were such jerks.

I have never used a shooting head, and really have no need for one where I fish, but I do have a question.

Zach, we need to have a discussion about cholesteral, son.

Very nice report, but I’m with Carter.

Did anyone see “Grizzley Man” about Timothy Treadway.

Hopefully something can be worked out, but complaining about it on the internet rarely works.

I’m with MassBass.

I keep saying I like fast action rods, but then I look at what I really like to fish with.  Two favorite rods are the Scott SAS and Scott Helipy, both medium fast rods that are comfortable to cast.  Next is a custom rod from a Rainshadow Xcel blank, a fast action rod, but very light on the cast for a 6wt.  Following that, and probably because I don’t get much chance to use it, is a 4wt on a limited production custom PacBay blank, that I would classify as medium action, but so light on the cast, its like casting air.

So what I say I like, i.e. a fast action line cannon, is not what I really like, as evidenced by my favorite rods.  What I really like is a rod that is comfortable to cast.  So, looking at what I really like, not what I think I like, I would rate the rods much differently than they did.

Oh well, now I wish I had never brought it up.

I really didn’t want to get into the fairness or objectivity of the “shootout” since that was beat to death on the 5wt “shootout”.

There is one sure thing about an unsupported chimney, eventually it is going to fall.  Just make sure you are not under it when it does.  Other than that, I have always found abandoned chimneys fascinating.  They just seem to stir the imagination as you try to conjure up what used to be around them.

That Bobby always was a dork, and you know what they say about Mary Lou and the football team.

I tried the Marlwalkers on at the store and they felt OK, but trying them on and wearing them wet for hours are two different things.

[Bob Riggins]

I think you are right.

[Bob Riggins]

I have known Zach for a number of years via the internet.

[Bob Riggins]

Be careful what you wish for, you might get it.

[Bob Riggins]

Thats great.  Well worth the time to watch it.  I’m ready to pack the bags today. I would love to see the full production.

[Bob Riggins]

I don’t know how to access the podcasts.

[Bob Riggins]

Bob, are you in/around Sarasota? Heard you mention the gulf, and I am in New Orleans. But then we don’t have snook, so . . .

I’m in Dunedin, Florida, which is in the Tampa Bay area, just north of Clearwater.

One option is to put your “handle” in the comment section that shows up under the avatar.
