Cameron MortensonMemberAaron…welcome.
Cameron MortensonMemberBilly…I just have started using furled leaders this past summer and finding them to work really great.
Cameron MortensonMemberI thought thats what these are for…

Cameron MortensonMemberBrett…that is good news on your daughter’s casting skills.
Cameron MortensonMemberWelcome jsentell.
Cameron MortensonMemberIf that was faked…then they did a good job putting it together.
Cameron MortensonMemberBrett…have a great trip with your daughter.
Cameron MortensonMemberAaron…great photos…I just need to see them BIGGER!
Cameron MortensonMemberGlad to see that you’re putting the net to good use!
Cameron MortensonMemberMark…check your email.
Cameron MortensonMemberBrett…which model did you get?
Cameron MortensonMemberWell, since my partner for the event was already in Jackson Hole today for work he stopped by Cloudveil to follow up on a couple of phone calls and they decided to sponsor our team for the Cuttie-Thon! Cloudveil committed to provide two pairs of 8X Pro Waders and two pairs of the 8X Stealth Boot. This really is quite a donation to our team and it is certainly appreciated.
Cameron MortensonMemberThanks Joel for the donation to the cause…and the hats!
Cameron MortensonMemberWhat a beast of a fish.
Cameron MortensonMemberI am pleased to announce that the Cuttie-thon 2008 now has it’s own coffee. It is roasted by Salmon Fly Coffee Roasters, in Butte, Montana. Salmon Fly is a small fledgling coffee company owned by a husband and wife team who jumped at the chance to help with the Cuttie-thon.

The coffee is a blend of fresh beans which are roasted, blended and packaged in Butte. I have sampled the coffee and for those of you who like a dark French Roast, I think it will be a big hit. As with many fundraising efforts, over 50 % of the proceeds will go to the cause. The cost of the coffee is $15.00 plus shipping. If anyone is interested in supporting a great cause by drinking a splended cup of coffee, please send me a PM and I will get you the order information.
Cameron MortensonMemberI finally had a chance this week to look through the box that Petzl sent while I was gone to Michigan. Petzl really did us right and sent both a MYO XP and a MYO XP BELT models. I didn’t notice that they had sent two different models until I had the packaging open to the XP model taken apart and batteries in the light.


MYO XP
MYO XP BELT
These are a serious headlamp and I know that they will be able to do the work for the night section of the Cuttie-Thon.
Hard to tell in this photo…but these lights can get BRIGHT!These lamps are extremely well designed and have three different brightness settings, flash setting, a boost setting which gives you 150 lumens, and then a front cover over the lamp that will either give you a flood beam or a spot beam.
Battery life is also impressive. LED lights have revolutionized light sources. The headlamp has the following burn times on a single set of batteries:
Economic – 180 Hours
Optimum – 100 Hours
Maximum – 80 HoursI’ll be carrying an extra set of AA batteries but it hardly looks like I need to.
Cameron MortensonMemberI feel bad that it has taken me a couple of days to update this but I spoke with Matt Cassel of Cliff Outdoors this week and he was so excited about the event that he is taking care of our fly box and floatant needs.
Cameron MortensonMemberYeah Zach…I could see that expose being one of, if not the, last article you write for the industry.
Cameron MortensonMemberZach…have a great trip and we’ll look forward to the photos.
Cameron MortensonMemberI didn’t know that they had steelhead in Africa!
