The giant Salmonflies of the Western mountains are legendary for their proclivity to elicit consistent dry-fly action and ferocious strikes.

This one seems to lead to Couplet 35 of the Key to Genera of Perlodidae Nymphs and the genus Isoperla, but I'm skeptical that's correct based on the general look. I need to get it under the microscope to review several choices in the key, and it'll probably end up a different Perlodidae.
27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

I need two new fly lines. First, I need a floating 8 or 9 weight for my one handed steelhead rod- I primarily fish an indicator/nymph rig.

I also need a new 5 or 6 weight floating line, with a weight forward taper, or anything that will serve as my main floating line. I'd like to trade someone, if they have something like that.

I have tons of never used sinking lines I acquired when I somehow ended up with the inventory of a local flyshop that closed unexpectedly (I also have tons of flies and other stuff if that works better for you).

I'll offer two sinking lines (hopefully I'll have the weights you ask for) for one floating line. I may have some sink tip lines as well.

PM me and let me know what you'd be interested in trading and I'll see if I have it.

Cheers!

We need lists of the "tons of stuff". PM me if you have any Rio leaders and tippet material.
