I've fished SA Scandi Lites of 150 and 180 grains on 3 and 4 weights on small streams with good results. I'm looking forward to hitting the Lehigh in PA, which is a pretty good sized river (for this area), with a 10'4" single handed 6 wt. and an SA mastery expert distance 6 wt. line. I think it...

In lieu of sighter wax, try giving Sakura solid paint a try. I particularly like the fluorescent colors. You can remove it from the leader with an alcohol wipe. I keep a wipe in a pillbox and it lasts all day.

Indeed I have. HP16c on the desk, pCalc 42 on the i devices.

After a lifetime of programming computers, I'm digital only. I find holding a physical book while reading incredibly burdensome. Plus, just like my RPN calculator, nobody borrows my stuff.

How do you like that Rio SHS 3D line? I’ve got the Streamflex Plus 4wt and was eyeing the Rio SHD WFF line in a 4wt. Do you think the 3D is better for swinging soft hackles than the WF? Oh, absolutely. It's really my favorite line for swinging. I've got it in 3,4, and 6 weights. Nice slow swing, an...

For the last few years I've used an Orvis 10' 3wt. euro rod. This year I'm trying something different and so far I like it a lot. It's an OPST micro skagit 9'9" 3 wt. It provides a lot of flexibility as it casts a 150-175 gr. skagit , 180 SA Scandi Lite, and a 3wt. Wulff Triangle Taper, all wel...

I like the Rio single hand spey 3d.

I had that same rod. I really liked a 5wt. Wulff Ambush and 5ft. Polyleaders.

You might want to consider the Rio Single Hand Spey. It comes in both floating and sinking. I use the 3wt. 3D sinking on my 10' 3wt. Orvis Recon, and the 6wt floating with a 5' sinking polyleader on my 3wt. Redington trout spey. Both for swinging pairs of small wets.
