Someone has just told me the new ones 2013 are black not blue, and are much stronger but more weight?

Hi all. I've done a search and could not find an answer to this question so. Can anyone tell me if they own a Loop Opti, and if they find them a little brittle. I'm just about to buy the Opti speedrunner, but don't want to make any mistake. Also what is the after-sale service like with Loop? Thanks...

Does anyone know if Loop are updated the Multi reel for 2013 please? I sit different from the 2012 model?

Thanks.

I'm fine with dries, no problem but when I use nymphs due to age (my eyes) and line colour I don't always see the takes. Does anyone have a simp...

Regarding dries/duns it's much the same, however I find the emerger stage by far the most difficult stage to fool trout. But in truth I don't know why? I do think on many technical w...

Hello all. I'm after a summer lightweight fly fishing jacket. Cotton with a nice length, much like a normal jacket, but with plenty of pockets. I'm trying to get away from a vest in summer. I like the Orvis Zambezi but at £180 it's too expensive. In winter I have a Tweed coat that does betetr than ...

I would like to build a home made French leader of around 20' or so.

Can anyone give me the dynamics so I could build one? I have a lot of Maxima in various sizes to use up.

It burns my ass to pay £10 for one!!

Thanks.
