MemberZach’s right, at this rate it doesn’t look good.
Carter Simcoe
MemberWe did it Steve, ha ha.
Carter Simcoe
MemberWell arguing with the reel designers is like telling someone they gave their children the wrong name I suppose, so they are definitely inherently right but I do still think its a bit like selling an El Camino as a truck.
Carter Simcoe
MemberYeah, thats a pretty good buy on a budget 8 wt set up.
Carter Simcoe
MemberAnd if ya’ll are all that bored get a carpet cutter and start ripping apart torn up and poorly tied flies to get back nice hooks, dumbbell eyes, and other stuff.
Carter Simcoe
MemberOh and if anyone wants to keep that recipie close but still feels a little pitty for me then feel free to PM or Email me 😉

MemberI think Davy made a good point about fly tying in general though.
Carter Simcoe
MemberYeah, If all we are talking is accuracy at 35 feet I’ll take you up on that too.
Carter Simcoe
Memberhey whats a good place to read up on tripod features and whatnot Zach?
Carter Simcoe
MemberAn intermediate line will help, I suggest it.
Carter Simcoe
MemberThat is a good name.
Carter Simcoe
MemberMan, I think the right 6 wt can make all the difference in the world from the average 5 wt rod.

MemberI’ve never tied an egg pattern simply because I never fish them (not an elitism thing though, just with as little trout fishing as I do I’ve never had the opportunity), I’m kind of surprised to hear there are so many variations, I thought it was all pretty much one basic style.
Anyway since you guys are talking about breaking thread I think you should give mono thread a shot.

MemberCan you set it to warn you when are about to drive off the side of the road, then lean back, close your eyes and take a nap, that sort of thing?
I what you are looking for is out there, I know someone with one, but I don’t know enough to recommend anything.

MemberWell the D80 is just really out of my price range as much as I hate to say it.
Carter Simcoe
MemberHell, somehow I just managed to make about $300 more than I usually make bartending on a Monday night so I think I’m just going to call it a bonus and spring for the D70.
Carter Simcoe
MemberThanks
Carter Simcoe
MemberYeah I still might wind up going with a D70 but I’ve completely ruled out the D40 for numerous reasons, the most noteworthy being the lack of and LCD screen on top of the body.
Carter Simcoe
MemberNo Steven, I’ve never seemed to gain much from the whole club thing; but then I’ve never been to one of that particular group’s meetings so perhaps I’m just being stubborn.
Carter Simcoe
MemberYes, I have that vice (the Barracuda) and its hella sweet.
