Re: 4 weeks of chaos! It's a race to the 22nd

Re: I'm so tired of getting ripped off!

It's not the topics themselves that cause issues. It's the intensity with which people defend these two particular beliefs that that make them topics better left alone.

Re: 5-Weight Revamp

LOL, yes you are correct. It's a royal PITA. Try wrapping the first side with less tension, then wrap the second leg with more tension. If the first side is too loose cut it off and rewrap it.

Re: Rod Love; the Fly Rod Picture Thread

Do you know how hard it is to get a rod delivered to your office at 10AM and have to stare at it ALL day while it's sunny and 75* outside? BVK 8wt for my Redfish trip this Fall, I'll have to break...

Re: lifetime warranty rods / outfits?

I don't make my purchase decisions based on warranty, but it does add value if your already buying a rod that you like. If I'm looking at two rods that perform well in my hand and one has a lifetime...

Re: Cork handle filler falling out

I generally use cork dust and wood glue. A wine cork and some 100grit sandpaper will do. If you don't have any cork laying around the Elmer's filler works just fine....
