    Hi
    Couple of questions on your waders
    Felt or rubber?
    Which model are these? I don't see them on the Simms web site.
    Do you know what the insulation rating is (in grams) of the boot?
    I wear a medium, but I am sure MK would be ok. My biggest concern is I wear 9.5/10 shoe. I think with thick winter socks, they will be too tight.

    I bought my first spey rod from you several years ago. A Decho 7 wt I think

    Thinking about constructing or buying a fly testing tank I found this forum and was very interested in what you were saying back in 2014 if I recall. The one aspect of a fly testing tank that I think I would like is observing the action of a known effective fly pattern and building that aspect into new fly design. Do you have further experiences in the use of a tank, both positive and negative, that you would share?

    Hi therr,
    I have and still use a fly testing tank regularly. I use the tank a lot for testimg swinging flies as it really show's how different materials and construction behave under a current. I also use the tank to test trout streamers. When I test a swinging pattern i just let it sit in the current. When I test a trout streamer I will give it a stripping or jigging action as that is how I would fish it.
