Re: Pyramid Lake.... any suggestions?

Float tubes can work especially at Warrior Pt but if the slightest wind starts picking up and you don't head in in time its a LONG walk from the other side of the lake.

Are you coming for the Everything Stillwater event? A 6-7 wt is ideal for nymphing I use an 8 wt for buggers and beetles. With the sizes of trout coming out this year I wouldn't use a 5 wt. A sink...

Re: SBS Decorative Wraps

Amazing job!! I would be afraid to fish that rod because I know it would break on me and I'd be stuck having to do it all over.

Re: Would you have 2 rods?? question for you all

Fly rods are like shoes to women. You can never have too many. If you can afford to keep both I would do it.

After breaking my 6 wt I am contemplating rebuilding it with a wood grip and I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts or comments on using wood vs cork.
