I’ve been seriously photographing for ten years, done most of my business for equipment and supplies online, and I’d second Eric’s comments about sticking with B&H, Adorama, and Amazon.com as your sources.
I’m headed to NC early next month to see my first grandchild for the first time and have resolved to shoot some film along with the digital, just to see how they compare.
I have a Nikon 300/2.8 AFS that I use with a Nikon 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters for sports action photography.
I received several spools of this product in a very generous sample pack from Uni earlier this year.
Love all of Gierach’s books, and re-read them.
Nick Lyons’ Spring Creek, three times.
Currently making my way through William Tapply’s Brady Coyne series (fly fishing Boston lawyer), though think I prefer his First Light and Bitch Creek.
Pale Morning Done was great, as was Nail Knot.
Now reading Bill Bryson’s memoir, The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid.
Loon has a similar product, UV Knot Sense, which they market to seal various FF knots, but I use as an epoxy replacement on Copper Johns and similar flies.
A real job, aka one that pays you money for practicing your chosen profession vs one that pays a pittance for writing fishing articles and taking photos?
