Zonker would be proud! - flygoddess - 07-09-2008 I am going to have a hard time handing this rod off to someone else. It is the CARPANATOR! I hit the river again to day and with that fighting butt, it is nice landing these monsters out of thick grass. While I lost several, I landed a bunch. Here are some of todays beauties: The fly of choice today...RAINY's POPCORN BALL [signature] Re: [flygoddess] Zonker would be proud! - Dryrod - 07-09-2008 [center][font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4]Hey there FGD, what size & type of hook are you using to create your CARPANATOR fly?[/size][/#008000][/font] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Zonker would be proud! - flygoddess - 07-09-2008 Not sure on the hook but it is a short shank wide gape. Maybe a #10? [signature] Re: [flygoddess] Zonker would be proud! - tubeN2 - 07-10-2008 Nice job Sis. It's good to see that you still appreciate some of the finer things in life such as a light rod and a willing fish.[cool] [signature] Re: [tubeN2] Zonker would be proud! - flygoddess - 07-11-2008 Yeah, MacFly zeroed in on the two hander. Sweet rod and GLASS. I do have to return it though, that is going to be tuff. I guess I will have to settle for my BIIx[] [signature] Re: [flygoddess] Zonker would be proud! - Dryrod - 07-11-2008 [center][font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4]Between you and TN2 you guys own 99% of the rods out there.

Just waiting for the list so I know exactly what is available, but this includes PONTOONS for under $200 and two handed rods under $50. I will let you all know when I do. [signature] Re: [flygoddess] Zonker would be proud! - tubeN2 - 07-11-2008 That sounds like a nice deal for all them rods. I'm sure there must be something in that bundle that could catch your eye. You could even pick up a few extras for your bro here. They could make a nice b-day present. My b-day is approaching faster than you think.........Feb is not that far off.[laugh][laugh] [signature] Re: [tubeN2] Zonker would be proud! - macfly55 - 07-20-2008 hey I am first in line on the b-day gift thingy.. mine was last month.. heheheh which rod were you using.. ya'l know I still not that good on recognizing them type of things yet.. :-) MacFly [cool] [signature]
