The Gulfstream, when that reel along
with my ten weight are out it means the
wind is blowing.

Mike,
What all have you heard on these? I’ve had my eye on one, but since they’re fairly new to the market; haven’t read or heard much on them. The $ looks great. I’ve been going back and forth on a Torrent or a Nautilus CCF

The guy wearing the visor in the link is a good friend and guide here in KW.

Awesome!!!!!!

Thanks Olle, DB, Zach, and Dave.  I was talking to a friend about this image and wondered what kind of message it sends about proper fish handling.  The carp is more than 12″ above the surface, inverted, and appears to be under too much grip pressure.

It was then pointed out to me that at least the fish is being supported with both talons, so it’s probably OK.   🙂

I like the Orvis LA. They’re not expensive and fairly lite. I’d also consider a Lamson Lite.

If you’re speaking of the Mach series, that was the reel that
convinced me to quit screwing around and buy Tibors.
