I used a six weight Kilwell :D And a Vosseler DC whatsit, with an ordinary (not tropical) WF floating line. In the Bahamas in December, it was perfectl...

Well, we had them in Orvis here in Edinburgh, but they're sold out now.

Still got them at Orvis in Banchory

Is this an "official" position, or a private capture type deal?

Gammel Dansk then, which tastes very good AND is very good for you as well. We must have some again soon :-) :sick: I think I still have some in the house Lars, but I haven't checked since you left it there. It may have melted its way through the bottom of the bottle, through the bottom of the booz...
