  1. What is the Tournament Tie. Upper hook snelled then lower tied on?
  2. Jim does tunas have a web site, also what reel did you do the drag on the Magna pros?
  3. ok I see a lot of you guys running a single hook above the treble, does this increase you hook up percentage? Which hook do the fish have in there mouth?
  4. From what I understand if you preordered the book you will get it before its out in stores, I was just charged for mine so it has just shipped , so I may have it before Christmas. Just Love reading Dans Books and watching his videos.
  5. That tree is just awesome , Something that would look great on our Charlie Brown tree we Have. Some one also showed flies for ornriments too .Welcome to the site.
  6. So what are the flies suppose to be imitating ? a fly or bait fish
  7. Jeeze looks like the top of my head.
  8. Well since my surgery money has got very tight, and I have plenty of mono around . Sure am glad that the boat sips gas , and with the kicker should hardly notice using any gas. I went over board last year on gear so no problems there. Is 20lb enough for a backer, or should I use 25lb , it's all big game . just different spools.
  9. Your deepest rod /board is the closest to the boat and farthest back, if they are going under lines it sounds like there setup backwards. Right?
  10. guess its time to charge up the batteries . Glad I bought a large spool this year, have to do 2-5 colors and 2-7colors , 4 rigger rods, and leaders on 2- 3 color. I always save my old spools to put line back on using the drill method. Had to replace part of a 5 color earlier this year , saved the 3.5 colors I could to use on swr or 2 colors. Stretched out the tangle on the city sidewalk and was able to save the lead. redid the mono.
  11. I am going through all my lead cores and I was just wondering if I should replace the backing on all the rods. its not to bad to do the leaders, just a pain in the butt to do the backing.An easy way to do it , is it even nessary?
  12. very nice fish, Do you guys mostly fish right at Standard Rock ? or do you go north east up the valley? I was looking at the chart and was thinking that looks like a good area also.
  13. Welcome from the other side of the pond.Enjoy your self
  14. ran out of money before the end of the year
  15. if its that bad that you are loosing fish because the fish is twisting the lure put a swivel in front of the lure, the whole lure will spin. If a fish gets air it will get slack line, a spinning hook will not stop the fish from jumping and getting slack line. It will however keep you from getting line twist. JMO
  16. Making flies was one of the things I was thinking of doing while I am off but I had no Idea how and there not that expensive to buy. I have 6 weeks to go at least ,but The boat is here and I have heat so I may skip the flies.
  17. Do you ever have a problem with the hook getting caught in the tube on the fly
  18. Chris can you also show a setup like that helps us understand better. thanks
  19. All I find is something to due with a movie.
  20. Phil can you show a picture of the hooks.
  21. whats the page?
  22. Just as if there are 2 boats both the same just different colors, one plain jane and one with super metalflake pearl . both will peform the same but one catches fish wile the other catches fishermen. different flies catch different fish at different times of the year. I have caught them on many colors , most have aqua and white in them. while others are completely different. what ever works that day.
  23. yellow over pearl white, moutain dew, lbb, aqua over white, green foil and aqua.
  24. Kevin Just remember that the name on the body shop didn't fix your car , they merely own the place, being a technician myself .give a little shot in the arm to the guys and gals that got it done. Also state farm is an awesome company. We do a large amount of work for them .
  25. Could be worse, you could be stuck at home reading going through lures no shows in site, for at least 6 weeks. And the boat just came back and was put in the garage. Come on spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doc won't let me know when I can go back to work yet. so still restricted to not lifting more than a gallon of milk.
