That is a good looking trout stream, are they native? That bunch would make a good batch for the smoker. What are they hitting on? This is indeed an awesome little stocked Trout stream. I have to drive about an hour or so to start getting into native Trout water streams. Most of my stocked Trout ar...

She's a beauty...you must have a lot of that red plaid there. :D Is it my worn out eyes or is the tang sight not perpendicular to the bore.? If that's where it "sits" you can adjust it to sit right or you will get a bad sight picture when looking through the aperture.------6 Seems to work...

The day you handle a vintage levergun,
you'll be looking to own one,
not just "like looking at them"

I started out with collecting and shooting Winchester 1894/'94's and had a half dozen of them when a trade forced me to take a 1893 Marlin takedown in .25-36M as part trade. My plan was to turn it around and use the funds for more Winchesters. But I took it home and pulled it apart to clean, oil, a...

If it's the best of the best you only have to buy it once.

Seriously thinking about purchasing one of these.
Looks to be an awesome well made tool.
I really like that handle clamping idea.

I had a Lindsey call as a kid! :D I found it buried in my back yard, not that that makes any sense looking back. You could have given me a million dollars to tell you the brand before reading this post and I wouldn't have been able to do it, (in truth I'd forgotten all about it decades ago), but se...

My Dad passed these two classics onto me last week. They always sat in the corner of the barrel notch shelf in his gun cabinet. He purchased them both new back in the 50's. They are now both proudly displayed on a shelf in my cave 8) I wish the crow call had some form of info. on it, no markings at ...

Looking really good :D Hows she handle? Shoot them targets at a hunnert? Thanks Ben. I'm really liking the way this little Rifle setup handles. Absolutely perfect for the type of PA.

First Range Report... 194? Winchester model 94 30-30 Leupold M8 2x scope. Ammo. 30-30 150 gr. P.P. Initial sight in done at home with a 30-30 laser bore sighter.

Restoration complete...

Just have to set the reel up...

cshold

Thanks guys.
It's really just a low priced, low collector value South Bend model 346 9' rod.
If I mess it up, no great loss.
I just enjoy doing projects like this.
I don't think the fish know the difference between an $80.00 rod and a $3,000.00 rod anyway

cshold

Never did a fishing rod restoration. To date I've rebuilt the reel seat & cleaned the cork. The vintage reel just needed dusted off and lubricated. I really don't think it was ever used. I have a new set of snake line guides and a spool of proper color silk wrapping thread ordered. Also doing so...

I found him on the Classic Fly Rod forum.
Exactly the place I need to be for the answers I'm looking for.
Thanks all for the info. & PM's

Sure you ain't thinking of bullard4075 from Montana, or maybe the guy from down around Bulverde... havin' a senior moment on his handle. The guy from TX was into fishin' and bicycling.

He was the only bulldog I found. Is he the one?

Thanks ,
Not that one.
He would have a lot more posts than 13.

Trying to track down Bulldog.
I can't find him in the members search section.

I need his fly fishing expertise.
I suddenly came into stewardship of a 1930's 9' Bamboo fly rod and single action reel in excellent condition.
Unfortunately I know next to nothing about fly fishing.

Good read. Henry Winkler is an actor, producer, and director, as well as a New York Times best-selling author of I've Never Met an Idiot on the River and the Hank Zipzer series.

Just got home from seeing it.
Overall, a good well done movie.

All that split bamboo makes me drool. I still have a couple but they are just for nostalgia, yet they just feel better than graphite. What is that field across the creek? All those white posts make it look like a military cemetery. I was thinking they looked like those cones put around tree saplings.

That's pretty neat -- 50 years ago in 1966. But Remington had already been making those slick fast-firing center-fire pumps for over 50 years then. Anybody have a 1916 ad for a Remington model 14?
