Horseshoes 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2012 First.. The CAD postal. Apparently our mail gets hung up at the border, so to speak. Tighter at customs. Lykos33...I have been getting some skeleton reels. I really like them. Light, well balanced and a soft breeze could spin the wheel. Besides that they are cool looking. Just might modify a few.

Happy for you lilDave ...but I am ready to "go postal" on the Canadian Post people...flies can go half way round the world before those Bozos can get across the border to us... I think there is another C.P. worker who fishes but does not tie... Murray Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

P.G. Beckett 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2012 Been out of town for four days (one of my long time fishing buddies past away) but before I left, I had made 3 trips using the flies we swapped: So far, I have caught 2 small snook about 18 inches long, 6 sea trout,all less than 16 inches and a few ladyfish. These were all caught near a spillway close to home. Later ,this week, I am going to try to fish the Sebastian Inlet area where some much larger fish should be holding -Phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
