Re: 477
Well, it was darning thread for British uniforms, so if there ever was one made it would be pretty pricey.NightWatchman wrote: ↑Tue Mar 30, 2021 9:51 pm So what do you guys think the price tag would be for a sweater that was knitted with 477 ?

Re: The Fly Fishing Bible of Nymphing
I also spent part of my weekend researching euro nymph fly rods. They range in price from around $170 to $950 for the Sage ESN euro nymph fly rod. Paul Gaskell told me in his videos he is using Marryat's Tactical Pro Nymph Special, 10ft 3 weight. https://www.tacticalflyfisher.com/marryat-tactical-p...

Re: *&%#* fly line !!!
I don't recall any of my modern lines stinking. I would suggest you wash your line more often and dress it if necessary.
