RE: [VFB] Any VFB'ers communicating presently via email?

I haven’t been very active for a while, whether it’s posting to the group, tying or even fishing. Looked @ my tying station the other day, thinking about tying some bass streamers. Only got out on the water a couple times last year, hopefully that will change. I’d be up for a virtual swap.

Re: [VFB] Sage Fly Rods

I had the same great customer service w/ St Croix. When my 2 piece 5WT cracked landing a 11 lb catfish, I asked them that if they were going to replace it I'd prefer a 4 piece. They called me when they got the rod said not only would they replace it w/ a four piece, but they'd upgrade the rod for

Re: [VFB] Sage Fly Rods

Most of my fly rods are St Croix Legend Elite, but I've fished w/ Sages other rods. While I don't own a Sage now, I will @ some point. As w/ any high end product, there is a name component to the pricing, but it is also true that w/ a lot of fly fishing equipment you get what you pay for. There

Re: [VFB] Strange fight for this lake

I'd be interested, but it's a little longer than a 40 mile trip for me. ION, the Firehole is a great place to fish, but I was casting in 30+ mph winds all afternoon. Never saw a rise, like you the biggest fish on of the day we never saw. wasn't as big as yours, but I had to work to bring it up

[VFB] nevermind

It appears that there was a problem w/ my e-mail address. I didn't realize I had an account w/ my business address too that's the one that was banned. Don't know why but oh well. As to the pond, my 5wt isn't the best rod for casting into a 20 knot wind. Crosswind, I was almost God-like, but
