Resistance tackle sucks....just kidding lol . I've been using their swivels and leads for years. And their willow rods when they first came out were the bomb for the money...probably still is.

Nice!

Willem fixed it. I can now see the ugly faces of all 3 of you lol....just kidding

Thanks Dan. Not a big deal and although I have seen pics of them before I was just curious to see the pics you posted haha.

Anyone else not able to see the images posted for Andy, Jerome, and Willem? For some reason I can't see any of the attached jpg's. Willem and Dan are looking into this I believe but I was just curious if anyone else was having this problem or if it was just me. Congrats to Andy, Jerome, and Willem by the way. Very deserving!

I was posting on top of Idaho Carper so I missed his response. I think he's right but I hope they still give you membership until Dec 2014.

That is a good question. I hope you get it until Dec 31st of 2014.

As a paying member, I hope it's ok that I voice my opinion . Even without knowing the details I know that there was good reason for the board to decide to make the fly fishing forum private but like Ian said, the result has not turned out well so the decision should be re-evaluated and reconsidered. I hope it becomes available to the public again and brings fly fishermen back on here.

Cool! Didn't know that....definitely something to think about.

Thanks for the info Willem. What email provider do you recommend besides gmail? I can't believe they read my emails ....I feel so violated haha.

I just checked my spam inbox and quite a few notificaitons from CAG made it through. I clicked on those as not being spam. And after doing so I received a email notification from CAG so maybe gmail knows that CAG emails are not spam anymore. Hope this works out and I get more cag emails

No, nothing yet.

Hi Willem, I don't receive anymore email notifications for threads I follow, when people quote me, and when I receive new pms. These options are all checked in the notification option but it still doesn't work. Thanks, Mike

That's some crazy chit. Good luck with this.

Cool. Thanks!

I will submit something. When is the deadline?...only asking to gauge whether I have time to come up with something new. Thanks.

Thank you. Actually, I was going to delete my comment tonight because after rereading your original post, it didn't seem like it was directed directly to me but you replied to it before I got a chance to delete it.

Essentially, what you're saying is that, in your opinion, I shouldn’t have been the cover and that my article shouldn’t have been the feature. Your entitled to your opinion and quite honestly, I was probably the most shocked, when I discovered that I made the cover. I never thanked Bill and Stewart for doing what they did but I am very grateful and humbled by the opportunity to share my opinions, thoughts, and the little bit of my insights I've acquired over the years when targeting big carp. As for "special care" being given "to the selection of the article that will benefit from the color pages", I'm pretty sure Bill and Stewart did just that and didn't decide in a careless fashion, don't you?

This is very generous of you!

I like this idea

I've never participated in any CAG contest before because I only compete against myself but maybe I'll participate this year. I think I would have won with this fish last year if I had entered. I caught him on New Years day and depending on how wet the sling was, it would have went between 28 to 29 lbs. On second thought, once I enter something, my luck changes and end up doing terrible so maybe I won't enter so that I can continue to catch nice fish. But on the 3rd thought, I will try to go fishing on new years day and if it's interesting, I'll try to write something.
