AbelBoy, yeah tube flies on the swing. Check out Lani Waller's last video Steelhead Legacy. He goes for a few on the Deschutes and Babine (trailing hook).

Also, you're the man for this announcement, check out the new sale just posted on the Red Truck Fly Fishing Dot Com site. It has your name all over it... literally! Abels on sale.

Some of my buddies are fishing the Rogue this weekend. One is exclusively fishing tube flies. I'll check out Waller's video on that.

Thank you for the head's up on Red Truck. I'll pass though. I have nothing against the guys at Leland. Actually I met a few at the shows who seem to be stand up guys. I prefer to support my local shop which has taken good care of me for the past 10 years. Plus I have enough Abels to open a small fly shop.

Do check out Waller's vid, awesome.

Tight lines...

I use click drags (TRs and Creeks) on everything up to 5 weight. On all my rods 6 weights and up, I don't change spools. I grab another rod.

I think the reel is designed well. But I don't have need for a quick change setup.
