I have the option six. I like almost everything about it. The only problem is I can only get 96 yards out of it. You could stretch that out with the option 8, or the option canyon pounder.
I'm planning a camping trip to north central Idaho durning the fourth of July. I would like to fish the Secesh River and maybe the South Fork Salmon River. Any advice or experience in this area? I will take a fly rod and spin tackle. Also what else is worth exploring? Thanks.
I was in your boat five years ago and ultimately ended up with a Pudelpointer. I couldn't be happier. She's a great upland hunter, she doesn't shed, she has a wonderful personality, plus she is fairly mellow in the house.
My PP started out with a pretty slick coat, however, as she has aged her coat is getting longer. The main issue is her muzzle and her ears. I tried the show and shine with great results!!!
Thanks for all the input guys.
do you guys have any tricks or remedies for keeping cockle burrs and stickers off your longer-haired bird dogs?
If not, would you happen to have any recommendations for removing stickers? My poor dog is almost hairless at the end of the season.
Thanks
Try the Wallowa river in North east Oregon, About 2.5 hours from Boise. Easy access, lots of fish. Wait for warmer weather. Around the end of February. If you want nicer fresher steelhead book a guided trip on the Oregon coast.
I switched to a thumb release three years ago, I also practice with a hinge to keep me honest. I seem to shoot better with the thumb, but if I screw up I hit way left. If I screwed up with a wrist release it seemed more forgiving.
I personally don't wax my bow strings any more on the advice from my pro shop. However I was just watching a video with John Dudley who says I should wax my string. I just wanted to hear some opinions.
