Hello Brad. I’m coming to float the Kanektok in August with an Echo Carbon 9 ft 6wt. I will need to throw egg rigs, larger streamers, etc. Can you recommend a line for this? I would rather not buy a heavier rod. Should I maybe overline with a 7 wt streamer line? Thank for your help, Kevin 2025-03-29T06:31:46-08:00| Read More

Do the sun and bug gloves have some sort of repellent in them, or do they rely on the weave of the fabric to protect from insects 2025-03-18T07:17:31-08:00| Read More
Hi, I’m interested in this echo ion XL fly rod combo, the Alaska ready in a six wt but I see you only offer it in 9 foot length. I think I would prefer the 10 foot length. I plan on using it up there for dolly‘s and then also here at home,central coast of California, for surf perch and an occasional float tube in bass ponds. Can you get the 10’ size for this combo? Am I making a mistake by using the 10 footer? Thanks for your advice, Brad 2025-03-12T08:34:03-08:00| Read More

I have Litespeed and Remix reels in 7+, Nautilus X in XL and CCF-XT in 8/10. Do I need a reel as heavy as the CCF for a week on the Aniak? It will stop a truck but is pretty heavy to cast all day. I’ll be fishing 7 and 8 wt rods except if targeting grayling. Thanks for your great website, especially your tying videos. Great help to me in prepping for my last and upcoming trip to AK. 2025-02-17T10:55:37-09:00| Read More

You’ve pictured the older plastic trapped air style v the newer foam. I want the old style in 1″. Is this what you have? Just confirming. 2025-01-20T13:50:27-09:00| Read More
Hi Brad, I’m visiting friends in Palmer this summer and we plan to fish for silvers in the Little Su. We’ve used traditional tackle in the past and inline spinners. I’d like to bring a fly rod. My heaviest is a 7 weight. What size Dolly Llamas do you recommend? And can I use my 7 weight set up? Thanks Adam 2025-01-07T11:53:33-09:00| Read More
