    calling something a “fly fish website,”

    One of the good website optimization strategies is to incorporate the most popular keyword phrases used by your targeted audience throughout your web page content. The more precise you are to matching the phrase exactly the better the odds on improving your natural search engine listing positions. So some will use the phrase “as is”, even if it is poor grammah.

    Also, if you do keyword tracking you would be amazed at all the variations that people use when searching.

    Randy –

    While you worked for the old company, you were their agent and in their employ.

    Hey Kat –

    Compound words have always been with us in English – that’s our old Anglo-Saxon roots coming out.  Personally, I like to compound words like rodmaker together.  However, I think technically, you’re supposed to use them separately as an adjective (rod) modifying a noun (maker).  This doesn’t bother me nearly as much as the stuff I mentioned in the initial post, which is a an adjective modifying another adjective modifying a noun (“fly fish fisherman”).  

    If someone claimed to be a cane rod rodmaker, I would probably roll my eyes, but just plain ‘rodmaker’ doesn’t bother me (or even ‘bamboo rodmaker’ or ‘cane rodmaker’ which are at least adjectives modifying a compound noun).

    The Simms Dry Creek Roll Top might just be the best of both worlds.

    Matt,

    I too am interested in seeing the setup you are using for those fly shots. I have been researching off camera flash and thinking about shooting some of the surf flies that we are using on the left coast. Thanks in advance.

    There is a guy who has linked to here who has a website on fly fishing in Singapore – if you Google a bit I’m sure you can find it.

    Yeah, here’s the original article I read:

    “Watching the animals as they returned to the same spot to collect food each night, Mr Rodriguez decided on his dream shot.

    He eventually captured it using a photographic trap…”

    It really is a budget Helios.

    Paul –

    Maybe it would help to describe a little more of what this film tour is about.

    The big shop in Jackson is Jack Dennis’ shop on the square, which can definitely handle it, but I had a great time floating the Snake with Westbank Anglers’ guides when I was out there in 2005.

    High Value Item coverage is likely to be more expensive than a simple personal articles policy.
