I normally tied the tippet ring while still in the snaps then take it off once tied...

I’ve had them all over the years and have settled on the Fishpond Tacky boxes for 2 things- first they’re waterproof, more than once I’ve dropped a box in the water and had to take all the flies out to dry so the hooks don’t rust. Secondly I like the silicone slit over the foam slits, the foam tends to wear from use and doesn’t hold the flies as tight. If you’re looking for light weight only then the fulling mill boxes are great.

Apart from the Simms tippet threading slot which is a new one on me they are all over priced junk for tackle tarts. Still using the same nippers I brought over twenty years ago and I fish 200 days a year, my secret? One sheet of 800grit wet and dry paper. Nippers get dull, put the paper on a flat surface, I use a piece of glass, place the flat side where you do your nipping against the paper rub for less than a minute and they are good to go again.

Do you still use the wind river? I have the thunderhead sling and im looking to upgrade. Just checking to see how itd holding up

Two or more silicone boxes will make you feel like you’re carrying bricks around. The weight puts me off. I go with the foams.

I just bought the Wide Mouth Hand Net. I am having an issue finding a solution to attach it to my net tender. The hole in the handle doesn't accept any of my carabiners.

Thank you, Mr. MESS! Terrific review!

Materials list?

I bought this caddy to match my Guide Vest. Rubber stoppers too small for Cortland Tippett. Disappointed.

Fun review 👍 thank you. Shop seems sweet!

No one shows tippet holders on a vest. Driving me crazy as I outfit my new Simms guide vest

Nice nets I need to get a longer handle so it will stay in my Fishpond 2.0 belt system ! As far ass the digital thermometer what a load of crap I can put my finger in the water and tell if it's cold enough and if it's to cold for me where I'm standing then so is the water !.....what the temps a few degrees off so your not gonna fish there ? You might as well strap a fish finder to your wadder boot ! Fly Fishing is a intuitive common sense state of mind sport not a scientific positive or negative !

Are these as durable as the fishpond nomad riverguard nets

What are your thoughts on orvis vs fishpond nets?

Greetings . Would the simms pursuit wet shoes go with these ?

Great job Justin on the Scott session!

Great job Bobby on the Umpqua Northfork packs!

Do more videos Justin.

This fly shop is the best in WNC.

Great job da boys! Lol!

Great Job Bobby on the SIMMS FREESTONE ZIP waders!

Great job Bobby!

Swivels for my polyleaders when Spey casting

Wow !! Great !! Could you tell me the name of the town where you fished?

I really like my new Helios 4, but overall my Loop 7X is a better rod. Better in the wind, every bit as accurate, easily as strong, and way less torsional flex when fighting large Atlantic Salmon. Both are 9’ 8wt rods. That said, the Helios is an incredible rod that will make any fisherman extremely happy to fish with it. Bringing back the white stripe was a bad idea, imo it looks awful, but that’s not an important complaint about a fly rod. It’s absolutely the best rod Orvis ever made, without question

It’s not hard but it’s too many steps. Orvis makes better tippet holders and plus I have the Simms Tributary sling pack and there’s no where to put a tippet holder. Great pack but Simms dropped the ball by not making a certain location specifically for your tippet instead of storing it inside like a caveman.

Swiss Army Knife w/ scissors

Black reel knob, please! Wonder if this guy likes Lamson. The most hideous looking reels made.

UGLY REEL

I don’t know if this video was good or bad because I couldn’t last through the four minutes of BS and advertising in the beginning. If you’re interested in seeing what they actually have to say you might wanna start there, or it might have lasted even longer. I shut it off at the four minute mark.

Not denying the design or craftsmanship, but this reel will do absolutely nothing to help you catch more fish. If you have money to burn, fine. If you don't spend it on casting lessons, a guide to teach you how to read the water, better fly line, etc.

Straight up “88 out the gate”

I just picked up the 904 session and haven't had a chance to fish it but it cast great.

Thanks !! Very helpful!!!

nice

Is the chest pack smaller than the overlook?

I prefer the 1st gen Recon…..I’ve got a 4wt, 6wt & an 8wt., beautifully casting rods.

It's illegal to use these rods on anything but Scotts creek

They do look nice. Here & there, I've thought about a sling pack, I only have a vest right now. Thank you for sharing.

Hubba hubba hubba, biggun’s in the house…. Hoooly, dude.

these wings are outstanding.

What review?

No closed season on trout or bass there??? Lucky buggers.

The reel is no good now. I'll take it off your hands

How is stocking handled on waters that are posted?

They should have magnetized them if they wanted to reinvent the fly puck

If sage wants me to buy their fly rods then must come down to be priced less than 30% of the currently tag and most importantly must be either two or three pieces not four to cheap any rod build on four pieces period.😅

I'll take a Liquid any day, a total work horse of a reel. By no means would I call it sexy, lol however it is beastly functional.

so i'd need a norvise bobbin for each thread i'm gonna use in the nearest future because there is no easy way to un-spool unused thread. nice "sales strategy" but thanks.

Put a pair on my wish list !!! 👍
