Ken It occurs to me that of all the things roff is good for, (and
Ken some would maintain that roff is good for nothing ;-), gear
Ken recommendations may be number-one. As a group we have been
Ken ruthless with those who would commercialize this place so
Ken everyone knows that the advice given here is honest and unbiased.

Not only that, but on roff I have witnessed the best pieces of advice
to a number of fishing-related questions. The quality of the responses
on on-topic issues amazed me for a long time.

This place is a lot like a rummage sale. What you find when you get there
may or may not bear a resemblance to what you hoped or expected to
find......and everybody leaves with a different bag full of somebody else's
used stuff.

For me, the gear and technique related stuff is of minimal
interest.......it's all about the wonderful places and people I've gotten to
know.

and yes, they are, for the most part, somebody else's used stuff.
