    current mens journal (vigo dude on cover) has a thing about dirt cheap flights to australia. maybe fly there and get a charter to nz?

    let us know if you find a deal, the wife is heading down that way on business soon and i’d love to go with

    Umm a charter to NZ would be tens of thousands… it’s further than it looks. Commercial air has very cheap flights Aus to NZ but LAX to NZ would be the most economic option.

    Yep, what Morsie said… it does sound like you are using too much weight for the length you have between the nymph and the indicator… either lengthen the tippet or lighten the fly depending on the circumstances… this can change from pool to pool, run to run and riffle to riffle and is half the fun of nymphing.

    One of the best things about my fly tying crap is delving in and finding out what’;s in there,. I’d hate having a computer

    Anyone know if you can check stove fuel (propane, etc.) in checked luggage on an airline.  I could definitely see why they might ban this particular item, but I am going to need to get propane to Yellowstone (or get some in Jackson), somehow.  

    Thanks,
    Zach

    Just don’t mention rugby at all… our moods can change without a game, just a news announcement on team selection can put the country into a state of depression… we’re not fanatical… just a little fanatical! 😀

    Give me a call when you get here and I’ll put you on some water. Fresh or Salt. There are trout in the Auckland area, both North and South of it, but you will find, as already said, better trout fishing as you go South. My contact details are in my profile if you want to get in touch… Oh yeah and I’m easy on the eye and easy to understand… Anderson is just jealous of his little neighbour…

    GREAT casting site that many of the finest casters and anglers on the planet frequent, also quirky, irreverant, and at times right out there in discussions on politics, religion, whatever – and best of all its not cliquey and regional, its definitely world wide. Sometimes its like being in a pub at about 11 o’clock at night. Many world wide friendships (and enemies) have been made there.

    That’s funny Will…

    The other day I was in a car dealers waiting room while the car was being serviced, there was myself and about 5 or 6 mums.

    They were talking about having contracts with the boys who want to date your daughter and I got a good laugh all around when I said the contract would be 100% you touch it, dad kicks the crap out of you – end of argument and saves on lawyers (sorry, Zach ;))..

    I always used just one small sentence and it seemed to get the point across.

    “If you make my little girl cry, I will make you cry”!
