BIDDEFORD, Maine -- An autopsy has been scheduled for Monday on the body of a man who was found dead Sunday evening on Hills Beach in Biddeford. Joanne Fisk, spokesperson for the Biddeford Police Depa ...

Gartside Gurgler will light it up. You Trout guys are silly.LOL

Nope. Two days after I got the package from Dana in the mail I got stuck on 12-16hr. shifts seven days a week.

That is my rendition of a RM Soft Short. The one I want you to test is located in the Wanna fish San Diego thread.

I was drooling over the flies he had in. Well worth a stop for you and any others looking for some really well tied flies.

The lobster fly will go into its testing phase this season. You wanna give ...

While Julie was having here eye surgery today I skipped on over to the Tackle Shop to see Dana. I managed to find some tying stuff I just had to have. I also remembered to get tickets to the FF Film t ...

Matt, my buddy Gilly and I purchased a Gheenoe last fall. The previous owner did not want to haul it back to Fla. so he got rid of it for a song. I think we gave him $700 for it.

They are a very st ...

I recently made a purchase of a used Orvis Zero G. Unfortunately UPS lost the rod in shipment.

So, here I am looking for another used rod. Hit me up if you got one to sell.

Jeremy,
I picked up my orders yesterday so its etched in stone. Well, at least the start of the trip is.
I leave Portland early Monday arriving in SD in the afternoon after a short stop in Atlanta. ...

One added feature to the Bimini is this. The guy that taught me the knot used to leave his tag end long. Like about a foot.
You can imagine the stress on a sport that sees a stray line hanging down t ...

Whipped loop at the end of the line attached loop/loop to a Bimini Twist in the backing.

If you ever get a chance to read Rich Murphy's book look at the chapters covering Marshes. Do it. It is by far the best.
Lou Tabory has also penned a couple of books that will greatly shorten the lea ...

Do not worry I got about 20 variations of that very fly tied up and ready to go. I also plan on doing some Squid up just in case.

This is something I been working on lately. Its a combination of Mu ...

Thanks for stopping in Drydocked. I/we appreciate all the help we can get.

Capt. Brian Horsley (Nags Head, N.C.) also tossed a plug out for Paradim Charters. They are the west coast rep. for Mako r ...

LOL scratch the Mako on an 8wt. idea. Watch this video. For the record I think the angler should be bowing to the fish when it clears the water.

On a side note I have been putting together a bunch of materials in a Fishpond Coyote tying bag for the occasion.

I hear Mako like baby Gannett flies.

I was out there this past October for three weeks. Unfortunately it was all work and no fishing. Sixteen hour days seven days a week. I did make a boat load of cash while there and that is always good ...

Wanna fish the San Diego area?

I'm slated to be there for 10 weeks beginning 2/23. You can use the place i'm staying at as a base of operation.

If you can travel on short notice this might be wo ...

I'll be in San Diego from 1/20 thru 2/27. I plan on taking along tying gear to get a jump on Striper flies. Should I slide a rod and reel into the luggage or not?

That is what I consider part of my home water as I live here in O.O.B.

I'll give you my most productive flies for the entire season in that very area.

May-June

Sink tip shooting head lines.

Have not stopped by in a very long time. My bad. I've been doing some lurking and have been nothing but impressed.

I'm looking foreward to a great year in '08.

I must report the the old Whaler & ...

Goshhawker, your best bet would be to hook up with another fisherman to learn the double haul.
Jeremy has one of the finest casts I've seen in some time. I bet he'd help you out. Heck, if you can sta ...

Jeremy,"Dude, I just burnt my fly line in two when I dropped my lit butt in the bottom of my stripping basket!"

Linesides,"That was freekin stupid Jeremy!"

Jeremy,"I gue ...

If the fish are on baby bunker, often called P-Nuts, fish an Enrico Fly in Grey over White. A Tabory Slab fly, a White Snake fly, or a White Gurgler might also work.

If the fish are on Sand Eel's f ...

I'm gonna alter the next one a bit. It will have a little bit of Skok's Slobster influence in it.

After the moon in July when the molt is underway.

Rich Murphy created that fly. He's a guide in Mass. and an absolute awesome fly tier. His talents are in the realm of Skok, Popovics, et al. I am on a kick this winter tying up some of his stuff.

...

OK how come they can't be seen?

Shaq thanks for the line. Here are a couple pics showing what it was used for.
Jeremy eat your heart out!!!!!!!!!!

Got up early today. Searched the archives for Striped Bass vids. A cup of coffe, smoke, and some great memories. Great way to start the day off.

Just wanted to thank you for putting together such a ...

If that is the case then I'd stretch a length of bead chain between two vises and tie up several different bottoms. I've seen Bob Popovics tie like that using heavy mono. The heads are finished as if ...

You are right on track. Try some Enrico P-Nut Butter flies. They are a great immitation of Baby (P-Nut) Bunker.

I like the idea. I can already see me working on a Squid tied simple style. One question.... Will the clip hooking the two together land a fish the size of the one you caught on my Pollock variation? ...

Although, I can't say that the strip set is my automatic reflex just yet, I am familiar with it, having strip set several rocks and weeds this past summer. Recently, I enjoyed the power rush of stri ...

Linesides:

Thanks for adding your thoughts on the striper situation. I was hoping to hear from you, since your name seems to clue us in to your devotion to stripers. Didn't you give Jeremy a big ...

I think Jeremy has given you great information. Probably the best advice I could add is to remember to use your sweetwater knowledge and apply it to the salt. Purchase and read books authored by Lou T ...

Who makes the over the shoulder bag you had on the day we were on the Whaler?

The above fly was tied by a guy on Reeltime. He goes by the name of David Strout. Check his stuff out cause he's tying exactly what we ar ...

First off let me tell you I know very little about Spey style flies. I can tie a Rhody flatwing but in all honesty I know many others that are far better than I at it. But what the hey I tied a fly fo ...

One more question. What about Rhea feathers?

No problem. I think flatwings are the ticket Jeremy's looking for. They will be light enough to spey cast with yet also have the length and breathable materials.
The only downside is the inability to ...

Mike, what do you think about flies tied Ken Abrahem's style like the Rhoddy Flatwing? They have the length and are light so casting should be easy.

I'll need to look at what you folks typically use for flies when Spey casting. The lead in the fly serves two purposes. First, it aids in the action of the fly. Second, it aids in rolling the fly over ...

I must admit that I am primarily a Sage rod fan. I recently sold two Orvis HLS rods. I enjoyed them while I had them but they did not compare to the Sage in performance. The Orvis rods felt more like ...

Nice site. I notice some familiar names. Fish King sent me here.
