    That is precisely how you get to an AFTMA rating, Lou.

    The most interesting thing to me about that article is not that they conclude any particular rod is better at any particular thing, but that no rod was more than 10% off the norm in any category.

    The only thing I preach is this: they all get the job done.

    Pancho –

    I ordered them online, through Simms’ website.

    I got ordinary felt – they work fine for me.

    I just ordered the Simms L2s.

    Probably either the Simms Freestones (and save you some money), or the Simms L2 or Riverwalker or whatever, or the LL Bean hiking-boot style boots (don’t know name) if they had a felt bottom, which I don’t think they do.

    I am currently only about 50% ready to play thanks to my Cloudveil boots.

    Tim –

    You should be able to attach them at the bottom of every post window (although this software only allows one pic per post currently).

    Hey Dunfly –

    Probably either November, when the browns are spawning and all the fish in the river crowd the shoals to eat the eggs, or in February, when the shad kill comes through the Dam and the big fish rise to flesh flies.

    It’s a great looking logo, but watch your complexity.

    If you guys read the editorial section of this month’s American Angler, the second angler Phil is talking about–the one who was able to catch a fish–was me, and I caught it with the Zuddler. That fish is in the photoblog, too; it’s the one that is shot from above and with me wearing a yellow shirt in the grip n grin from my Yellowstone trip.

    You’re correct, Billy, there’s no conversion.

    I know two of those guys; Jackson Streit is locally famous there and his main assistant manager is a damn cool guy.
