Jay Hake
MemberHere is to hoping the Purple and Black make the Red Sox look purple and black!!! ;D Go Rockies!
Jay Hake
MemberIf you want a great all around 5wt, I would look at a Winston LT5.
Jay Hake

7’9″ 3wt Winston LT5 with Orvis Battenkill
8’8″ 4wt Scott G Series with Galvan Open Back

7’3″ 4/5wt Pentagonal Bamboo (self made) – Vogg 3/5
9’0″ 5wt Winston LTX Battenkill Bar Stock
7’6″ 5wt Dickerson 7613 Clone bamboo (self made) – Farlowe click pawl
8’0″ 5wt AJ Thramer Grouse Creek bamboo – Battenkill Mid Arbor
8’6″ 6wt T&T Horizon Series – Orvis Battenkill
9’0′ 7wt T&T Horizon Series – Redington Large Arbor
11’6″ 6/7 wt Batson Switch/Spey Rod – Okuma Large ArborHad a few other rods, including an SLT Sage and an 8wt Winston, but I am paring down to make more cane…
Jay Hake
MemberWhy not cane in that length?
Jay Hake
MemberMike,
Thanks for the great posts.
Jay Hake
MemberYeah, I actually kind of took it as a very backhanded compliment; I think this guy’s style is to provide Slashdot-esque services for the jaded, militantly-ironic set.
Zach
I certainly don’t feel old, but I guess from an “internet generation” standpoint I am.
Jay Hake
MemberNice review Zach!
Jay Hake
MemberThis trip is really something.
I am not sure how much more of it I can take.
You said it Seafood!
Jay Hake
MemberI am amazed that your friend stated that he had never seen a deer in the UP.
Jay Hake
MemberI would concur on the 3wt.
Jay Hake
MemberI would definitely say the Winston WT.
Jay Hake
MemberWorm = effective.
Jay Hake
MemberAwesome report!
Jay Hake
MemberCurrently reading two books, as usual.
First is: My Story as Told By Water, David James Duncan.
Jay Hake
MemberAgreed, this is a great trailer and an important subject.
Zach, this would also make a great Podcast discussion.
Jay Hake
MemberBad news Mike,
Sorry to hear you got blown out, that is a bummer.
Jay Hake
MemberI know Lauren wasn’t happy about me eating supper at that late hour
I’ve been there before Zach. I call it “The Silence”.
There is a solution to “The Silence” you just need to come home even later, so she is asleep.
Jay Hake
Memberahhhhh, a fix at last….
Jay Hake
MemberI would pretty much agree with Scott.
