I was reading a discussion here about how pleased a member was with his purchase of a Dobyns rod. He commented that the only thing that bugged him was the placement of the hook keeper which interfered with using the reel. This statement got me to thinking and for what it might be worth - here's my…
I got some money, so I always liked higher end stuff, sort of you get what you pay for these days. I have all the normal St. Croix, G.Loomis , etc... however I came across a brand named Dobyns. I bought one, the ML, which was good. I liked it, but then I said, how about a MH, and boy was that…

Hope to get out this week-end. We had one week-end this winter when the ice was thick enough to fish. Now the weather is warm enough and the ice is gone but I'm not skilled enough to cast from shore in gale force winds.
I just joined this group a couple days ago. I was looking for folks I could talk to about my fillet knife collection. I have tried over the years to get together knives from top makers, if I felt they were worthy of collecting. I have a vast array of great fillet knives and some fighters. Some of…
