.Holey Soles…Great lightweight,casual plastic
shoe for around camp, gardening, after removing waders etc. Like CROCS, and Waldies but much quicker
delivery on orders etc. and they fit most folks better….a neat treat for the feet….Holey Soles…only $30. Special orders are easy….
Royal Wulff Fly Lines… excellent lines and
everyone that owns one or more is quite pleased. The name “Triangle Taper” confuses quite a
few folks…the lines are round just
like other fly lines. “Tri Taper” refers
to the looonngg taper …longer than other lines.
The front taper on a standard
weight forward or double taper line is about 6 or 7 feet long. A Wulff line may have a front taper ranging
from 27 to 40 feet… providing an efficient transfer of power since a heavier
taper is constantly turning over a lighter taper. The Bass
lines do a really nice job throwing bigger “bugs” and roll casting. We have these on special at 30% off for newsletter readers. We also have some of last year’s floating fly
lines without the “j3” coating at 40% off… a great time to add another premium
fly line…at a bargain price.
Carolina Whitewater…Don’t let the title throw
you off…this is a great book for casual paddlers, white water kayakers and float fisherman…all will find Carolina
Whitewater to be a valuable resource.
It’s a classic…recently revised (9th edition) by veterans Bob
and David Benner. It’s chock full of
maps, river ratings, mileages and put-ins…$16.95.

Custom Fly Rods…One of a
kind… We
take orders and the price is right…many in the $200 category… made locally by
Sam Stitcher in Clemmons, of Rocky River Fly Fishing. We have a beautiful example of his
work…. Choice of components and blanks
could change the price. See our demo and
what $200 gets. Sam adds special
touches… no two alike.
Kid’s Backpacks...not the bookbags, but the
packs for overnight hikes can be challenging to get the right fit.
Fortunately Kelty makes several models specifically designed for kids,
even as young as 7 or 8. With the
correct fitting pack, kids do a good job backpacking with their parents and can
carry their share. Older kids, such as
those joining Boy Scouts still require the proper fit. Fortunately, for that age bracket, there are
several packs to choose from…and these models grow with the Scout….Proper fit is the key and you can’t
determine that from a chart…the pack has to be tried on and fitted…
