All Activity

Moosehead lk Maine, Champlain, Wallenpaupack.

Make sure it has good internet if you plan on working from home. My buddies homes in the Adirondacks have no cell service and crappy land line and internet. Things I like, but might suck for working from home lol.

X2 on Lake George! I go up on July 4th but I her the place is deserted the last two weeks of August!

Cape cod ! Look on “ we needa vacation.com “

I will be out with my son. Good luck!!

Garlic and kale are growing good from the fall planting seedlings are starting to look like plants

Woodbridge Arms and Archery, central jersey but definitely worth the ride.

It's been many years, but I took my 9/10 year olds to Simon Peter for their first hunting bows ... really great service and people.

Lake Champlain , always a great ! Rangeley lake in Maine , a great choice too .

Still? I haven't been there in years. Rob the owner always treated me and my dad great so I never dealt with anyone else.

The Adirondacks would be my choice

Nice job, congrats!!!

Terrific! I went Sail fishing in Ixtapa, Mexico. Big Pacific Sails. My kids caught and landed two. They did not jump at all, and I was filming it. The captain must have thought I was a real idiot because I asked him what we could do to make them jump.

No, just the opposite. I never use a two hand rod in a boat. I stick with a 9 foot conventional fly rod, typically in 9 or 10 weight.

Exactly 36' of shooting head which is just beyond my tip top guide plus the length of leader I'm using which is as short as 3' if using fast sink and as long as maybe 8' when Albies are around or I'm using intermediate sink line/tips. My 120' running line is sitting in my stripping basket on my backcast.

Yes, and within Spey casting are several techniques. The two handed fly cast is just that, and it is different than other casts. BTW, you can cast any fly rod using Spey techniques. Just remember to "anchor the D loop". I strip all but the 36' shooting head, leader and fly into my stripping basket and then make my backcast and send the whole affair out to sea in one forward cast. No false casting unless I feel I didn't properly load the rod on my first backcast and then when that happens, I only make a second false cast and never more, unlike traditional casting. The key for any and all types of fly casting is to load the rod fully.

You are giving away secrets............

If im fishing from a boat, is there an advantage to using two handed rods?

Ok, I get it now; how , much line you got out behind you in your backcast would you say, roughly.

Thanks for all the replies and pms I found something.
