    I agree with a few points in this thread…

    Drag on light reels is really overkill in most situations.  To bad there aren’t more options in the click and pawl reels.  I think reel makers are just following what everyone else is doing and what the customers think they want or need.

    The tiny drag adjustment screw would be the ONLY thing about the Tibor Spring Creek CL that is at all a downside.  The reel is pretty sweet otherwise.

    I’ve checked them out before and the Abel Creek reels are pretty nice and not at a bad price point.

    Here are my suggestions…and I agree with Zach that with the black hardware of the rod…that I’d match it with a black reel.

    Old School Choice –
    Hardy Lightweight (Though it is a lot of money for a click and pawl reel)

    New School Choices –
    Ross Evolution (Some people on this board don’t like them…but I like the styling)

    Tibor Spring Creek CL – I’ve got one of these for my four weight…and it is a GREAT reel.

    Cameron knows we love those classic setups of his.  Big browns too!  Davidson?

    I am hoping that “classic setups” isn’t photo talk for “BORING”…ha.

    Big brown…  Yes…the Davidson River.

    Tim…you are forgetting that Moosedog is stocking a shop for the “privileged”!

    I’ve got a pair of Smith Toosters that I’ve used for a seven years or so and then several pair of Native eyewear glasses since I like their warranty.  I’ve had issues with their (Native) nose pads more or less rotting or falling apart.  They’ve replaced glasses each time without paying the warranty fee.

    Steve…what is the web address for the South East Fly Fishing Board that you speak of?

    Yeah…I found my copy as well in the mail box.

    Alright…here are my Top Five from 2006.    


    And to think that this trout was my friend’s THIRD trout caught…ever!


    The funky green J. W. Young Condex reel has to make the cut.  


    Most likely the largest trout that I caught all year.  A long fall afternoon of getting rained on was well worth it with this trout and several others.

    Paul…that blue line looks like a magical place.

    Hey…could you post a few photographs of the Loop Yellowline.

    in reply to: History Lesson #15955

    Very cool video and must have been quite ground breaking in the realm of fly fishing video back in the day.
