its NNTP servers and I don't want to go through the hassle of setting up something through my cable modem provider. So please send any response directly to my yahoo account. Does anyone know which brand of fluorocarbon tippet has the lowest index of refraction and what that number happens to be? Mu Young Lee Santa Clara, CA P.S.

Hi Mu, Just a guess, but Seaguar has a good shot at being the answer. It's my understanding, they're the inventor of fluorocarbon lines. brians PS, cabin fever in Ca.?? |

It's been raining out here the last two weeks, maybe a few hours break in-between. Mu, do you ever get out to the Campbell fly-casting ponds? fwiw, -tom- I haven't been there. I did go to Lake Amador on Saturday and trolled a Jay Fair fly for about 2 hours on a 7 wt intermediate clear line. Caught 5 trout in the 3~4 lb class. Kind of crazy when you think about it. It was a bright sunny day and the fish were up on top. I didn't have any more line out than my fly line (90 ft) behind a dinky 8 hp Suzuki outboard on that rental boat that was really noisy. Plus it was my first time on that lake. Don't know if I was very lucky or if the fishing is always that easy on that lake. These fish do look very beautiful unlike typical hatchery trout. They fight like halibut though. As soon as I hooked one I had no trouble reeling them in. They didn't fight much at all until they saw me. That's when they begin to bulldog. They are some sort of hybridized cuttbow designed to grow quickly. Saw a pair of fly fishers in kickboats but it looked like a whole lot of kicking though one of them did pick up a fish or two. Service at the resort is extremely friendly. Sort of a throwback to a different time in American society. Very nice staff. It would be agreat place for a family style fishing trip. Afterwards I drove over to the lower Stanislaus below Tulloch reservoir and waited for a hatch but the park closes at sunset so the ranger kicked me out before the bug activtiy got underway. Supposed to be some good sized fish there but it was my first time so I still have no sense of what the fishing there is like. |
