Re: [VFB] Rene Christmas Swap

2014-12-09 Thread Rene Zillmann
Hi Tony,

unfortunately I've never hosted a swap from Europe. Postage back to the
US is appr. 10$. However, I created a couple of pages for swaps.
I have all of the flies in a database, and from the database this must
be your fly. Tied for the xmas swap on 2003, Iain Short from the UK did
host the swap.
I attach a picture of your fly.

Best wishes

Rene

Single foot guides will keep the line further away from the rod surface, It 
might help for long casts . I just can't accept single foot guides, I guess I 
am too old fashioned and feel better with the standard Snake guides. I have 
made several Graphite rods with single foot guides but did not like wrapping 
them. I will not use them on a bamboo rod.

Hi Don,
to the snake/loop guides. When I look at my forecast and with the snake
guides, the line sticks more at the rod's blank, than with single foot
guides. they ensure a bit more distance. Fo the backcast I see no
difference in this point.
your thought?

Re: [VFB] Rene- guides

2010-09-21 Thread Don Ordes
Wow, Scott, that's a lot of good info.  This gets saved in the gear/rods/lines 
folder.

Why slick guides would matter to me:
1.  When it's really windy here, like 70% of the time, to get any accurate 
distance, I have to really speed up a short cast, power up the last cast, and 
then shoot the remaining 1/3rd or so distance.  I use 10# flouro because 
anything less would make the weighted fly snap off with the inertia (change of 
direction).  A looping cast will be blown to who knows where.  Yeah, everyone 
deals with the wind, but they all say Casper's wind is ridiculous after they've 
fished here any length of time.
2.  When I lake-fish and those spooky buggers are rising like crazy 100' away 
and won't take anything closer.  And if I'm fishing from the shore and I need 
go get past the weed-line, or if I have to shoot distance because of back-side 
obstructions.
3.  When I saltwater fish and need long casts. 

With Casper's wind, I find that the rod's power is much more important than the 
guides*.
Then, matching the right line to the rod, sometimes a weight lighter, sometimes 
one over.
Keeping in mind my casting technique & timing, which has to change with every 
set-up.
* I've never really experimented with guides, so this is a good thread for me.
Keeping the line clean and supple is necessary, unless I'm fishing in cold 
weather- supple isn't there.**
Going to try some Shark-skin line to see if that improves my casting distance.  
Next show.

** Remember that Casper is the 3rd worst weather in the country.  A big portion 
of that misery is the wind, a tunneling effect because of the shape of the 
mountain ranges around us.

  If double hauling is your thing and you need to reach way out and shoot line, 
then the slickness of the guides will dramatically help your cast. Buy the very 
best ceramic inserts you can buy. Don't buy the cheap knock offs, buy Fuji and 
do all the guides, the stripper, and the tip top. Begin each fishing session 
with a clean and lubricated line or none of this will amount to much. 
Personally I would only do this on salt water rods or maybe salmon or steelhead 
rods. If you are casting beyond 50 or so feet in fresh water for trout then I 
have to question how you can cast to a particular rising fish, or see even a 
size 14 adams, let alone a size 20 midge. Or for that matter, how do you get a 
good drift with multiple currents between you and the fish?


  Just to give you guys an idea of how gimmicky this stuff can be, just a 
decade ago teflon coated guides were available for custom rod builders and they 
didn't last long. Unfortunately fishing equipment is subject to the same rules 
of consumerism as anything else. Consumers get bored with otherwise outstanding 
products if they are not tweaked and labeled "improved" over last year's model. 
If you look over time, the first guides were just a tip top guide and you 
beached the fish after swinging a brace of a dozen or more flies through a pool 
of fish. Then someone decided they wanted to retrieve the line, so they added 
trumpet guides and then later floppy ring guides sometime around or after the 
Civil War. Snake guides were used prior to the turn of the century, but didn't 
catch on for a couple of decades. After WW2 there were several short lived 
guides with cork screws or other catchy gimmicks. REC recoil guides are 
interesting, but they have yet to saturate the market. Buy what makes you 
happy, and rest easy that if you don't like them, they are fairly inexpensive 
compared to anything else going on the rod and they can be replaced if you 
don't like them. A lot of this is psychological. So if you have already made up 
in your mind what will make you happy on a rod, then by all means satisfy that 
desire. If you build a rod you love, then you will fish it more often, and that 
is a good thing.


  The Sharkskin lines cast a lot like the old silk lines. They make a lot of 
noise, but they do cast well. But I don't have much need for long distance 
casts.

Re: [VFB] Rene- guides

2010-09-20 Thread Rene Zillmann
hi Scott,
thanks a lot for all the information, well received. Concerning my
casting and the need for distance: I fish not often (20 to 40 times a
year), but very different waters.There a 2 small rivers south of
Cologne, the Erft and the Ahr. The 2nd one located in a great wine area,
fishing within wine yards - imagine. Casting distance is low, often 20
to 40 feet, but more often less than 20 feet. Very seldom need for
double hauling.
On the other side the Rhine, huge river and almost always a question of
distance. So double howling is the ticket here.
Ok, some additional trips to Striperfishing at Cape Cod, trout from
Tony's dock etc. Sometime double houling and distance needed.
All in all I always look very close on the guides, and in the meantime I
prefer the single footed ones, my impression is that it helps for
distance, and on the forecast (during the stroke!) the line is better
guided and I have more control.
Take a rode with snake guides, feed the line and turn the rod
horizontally, reel pointing up. And than look at the guides and the
line. That is my point

It was red wine, not good as add on to fish, anyway.
Just got a call from my son, he wants me to take him fishing.
But, and now I will be banned... we will get some maggots and fish them.
He caught a medium size catfish on 'em and wants to repeat this.
Will not report later in this.
