"Do you have an old rod you'd sell?"

"Do you have an old rod you'd sell?" Seems like I've been asked that a lot lately. I hate to have to say no. I love to help new folks get started in flyfishing, but, for me, selling one of my rods would be like selling my 5/8" box-end wrench or my skinning knife. They are tools I use and I like to always have the right size for the job, even if I don't use all of them all the time. I try to advise them on making a smart purchase on a new flyrod and offer to help them figure out the cast, but what would you do? Have you ever gotten this question?

"How do you guys transport your kayaks?"

@t0tallydan posed the question this morning "How do you guys transport your kayaks?". This is how I do it, and it works very well!! It helps to be able to hold the kayak over your head for a few minutes to load up!!

Kayaking Tomoka Lagoon

After getting rained out yesterday and having an identical forecast today, somehow it turned out gorgeous!! So, I spent a few hours in the kayak on the Tomoka Lagoon. .
