MemberThanks, but I doubt i will ever get to do more than fish for salmon once in my life, if that.
I will just use what the guide has at that point.
Salmon flies are beautiful, that is for sure, almost too nice to fish.keith b
Memberare there two hooks in that last one?
so why are salmon flies so detailed and why do they use so many different material.
I think that these types of flies keep some people away from the sport and from tying, justkeith b
Membercan someone help me to understand why salmon flies are dressed so much with the great detail they use?

MemberSince I coach baseball and baseball has been such a large part of my life I am sure we would have long talks about the game between tarpon runs.

MemberHoly Moly, 6x the life of felt?
I fish north of Atlanta, and some of the places I fish I have to walk a paved path to get to, that is why I am concerned about the wear of the vibram bottoms.
After walking several miles down these paths (over many trips) I just cant see rubber outlasting asphalt and concrete.keith b
MemberIf you guys need an additional tester please let me know. I would love to come throw some of these with you guys. If I were able to catch fish with them then you could taut them as fool proof. ::)

Memberbeen looking around at the Simms site nd hae a question for you guys, since I probably cant afford the Guide studded boots.
What would you think about getting the stream bottom rubber boots and adding the simms studs after the fact?keith b
Memberthanks Rob.
I guess the studs are protecting the rubber?
I will look into them.
I will not be in the market for a while since my others were just replaced, and GA has not outlawed felt yet.keith b
MemberI have been thinking about the non felt soles, and maybe some of you can answer a question, or concern, for me.
I had a pair (my first pair) of waders with boots built in and eventually the rubber bottoms wore down and my traction in the rivers and streams was lacking.
I am concerned that the new rubber bottom boots are going to wear out leaving a similar surface and similar results, which will mean I have to purchase boots more quickly than I normally would.
The felt boots I just had replaced had the inside tear apart before the felt even looked worn.
Has there been any discussion of this with in the industry?
Thanks

Membernot an expert, yet, but I would say if you are using the same technique then yes you are nymphing.
