    Another Drift boat Moron

    Just purchased a DC Skykomish Sunrise ST, used but in very nice condition. All you wading anglers better keep your head's on a swivel as I spin out of control while trying to figure out how to row while bouncing off every rock as I head down river, stealing all the best holes that you couldn't...

    Thinking of trying out a float trip this year on the WB. I have never been on a drift boat yet, I prefer the solitude of wading, but this year I really want to spend more time investigating and learning the WB. Any ideas on who to use would be helpful, though I am sure they are all great in...

    Sinking Tip and Leader/Tippet ??

    I am putting an extra spool together with a 5W sinking tip line. I have never used a sinking tip, so I am not sure of how much leader I should use. Is there a heavier leader I should be using so it sinks also? Or just attach a shorter section of leader? 5x, 4x, 3x? I guess the x size depends on...

    Catskills this weekend?

    Thinking of heading up to fish Saturday or Sunday this weekend. Any advise on where I should fish, ie Esopus, Beaverkill, W. Branch, or Main Stem, I will be wading, and imagine levels should be fine. More than likely the Beaverkill just because I am not as familiar with the Delaware and what is...

    Landing a trout???

    General question for the board.... When hooking your fish do you strip the line or reel in the line to land your fish? I find myself stripping most of the time and then having to much line in the water, sometimes I will delay landing the fish to reel-in the slackline and then begin stripping...
