Saltwater Flyrodders

A couple of questions for those who tie disco shrimps.

What size assist chord do you use?
I know some people use 20lb fluoro instead of assist chord. Is there a reason why?

Any help appreciated.

Sorted

Hi all, bit of a long shot, I'm looking for the above flyline in a 5 or 6wt. If you've got one to sell let me know.
Cheers

If any members are interested in giving tying a go, but don't have a vise, I've got a couple you can use on Sunday.

So glad to hear you're working with the physio already Doug. Best wishes for a speedy recovery and improved casting.

Thanks people all sorted.

I use Cal's 2 speed grease. It's the biz.
I purchased mine from Jack Erskine in QLD many moons ago. But you can buy it from a few places online in Oz.
The tan cloured one is for drag washers. There's a purple grease for bearings & gears, however I use the tan on everything, screw threads, bearings ...

Safe journies and ravaged fly boxes all you Boneheads. Enjoy

Nice

Hi everyone,
I'm after a 2nd hand salty #7. So fighting butt, decent reel seat & guides. I'm not brand loyal.

Cheers,
Brett
