Cool Today 05:32 AM " Mattdiy" WATS up with this??

I thought I was the only one up at that time?? Where are you at?? MT? I'm in Great falls MT. First things first. I don't fly fish so any thing I tell you will be wrong, and any thing A guy that calls him self Stryker will be even "WRONGER"" So don't listen to either of us.
Now that we got the disclaimer out of the way heres my advice. Get a 7 1/2 foot ugly stick and a Mitchel 300 real and a bunch of white and yellow jigs and start Walleye fishing!
Of course you will also need a big Jet boat and tuns of other stuff just to get started.You may like to get in to SM bass too but that should be a different post!
No I cant fly fish so I'm not the one to be asking about no reel!! Call back when you need some info on some thing I might be able to lie about!!! AND remember believe nothing that you here from (AKA) Stryker, he's bad news!!

"D" AKA BIG GUN
LOL

Go with a Orvis Clearwater Fly Rod selection. Quality stuff - yet very affordable.

More info about them here:

Most people would want to keep the Price down on Line whipping gear to start out but I would say a cheep Rod will make it a horible time. The real is more for storing the line and you will not need a good one till your are a better Line Whipper.

I like Lamiglas Rods myself.

Stay away from Sage, They will make your nose turn up in the air.

Good Line, good Rod and Good Luck. Stryker

Ps, Don't listen to Big Gun, He don't even eat fish.LOL
