Re: Do you Woolly Bugger?

I thought this was going to be a Youtube video to a new type of dance. Kind of like "'The Dougie". I'm rather disappointed actually.

Re: Tiger Trout Video - 4 kinds of trout from Southeast Minnesota

Cool vid Jed. I'm with Diamondrush in that I KNOW I've fished the last hole in your vid, but am having a hard time placing the first. It's familiar, but I can't recall it the stream. It will give me...

I will be really upset if I find out you didn't knock on wood after saying this and it snows next week.

Can't say specifically on the Kinni, although according to USGS Current Conditions for USGS 05342000 KINNICKINNIC RIVER NEAR RIVER FALLS, WI (http://waterdata.usgs.gov/wi/nwis/uv?site_no=05342000) ...

Re: What have you been tying today?

Nice tie.

Although this could start an interesting debate over whether you're better off imitating natural food, or something big and flashy. I tend to lean towards the latter, because musky...

Re: My driftless trip

One thing that's really nice about many sections of the Driftless is that although it is often windy, it is also very sheltered by valleys heading in different directions. Even if it is really windy,...

Re: Drift-less South WI

When are you going to be coming up, smallie? That will largely determine what I can tell you about the hatches. If it's soon you should think black caddis. They've started to show up over the last...

Re: Large boxes for fly storage

I'd probably just go with some of those big old Plano utility/tackle boxes.

I also fish the BWCA, but would need to see a specific question if there is any.

Re: looking not to break the bank

Like these guys have said, the Okuma SLV is a great reel, as well as the Echo Ions. The Ion, IMO, is a more solid reel (it's also $50 more than the SLV's) with a very solid drag.

You really would...

Re: Two Days In The Alley

Eddie Vedder - Society. It's off of the Into the Wild movie soundtrack. The whole soundtrack to that movie is worth a download on iTunes, IMO.

Re: NuCanoe Frontier ?

I couldn't agree with jimp more. If it's possible, you definitely want to test paddle one if possible. Seeing it on a showroom floor or website is one thing. Being on the water with it is a...

Re: 10 and 12 wt

Another boom stick you should look at is the Beulah Blue Water series rod. Right around $400.
