They look really cool. Good luck and keep us informed when you catch one.

They all look really good. I like number 3 and 5 the best. Where you going to try them? Silver? Newman? If you can afford and Idaho license, Chatcolet and Benewah both have some big Northern Pike.

Joe,
I am going to be using them at Silver, Newman and Curlew. I plan on being on the water 4 days a week..

I have been practicing in the park near my place with my 9 weight fly rod throwing a 10 weight intermediate with it. The fly's are 6-9" long, what a work out.. I have caught tarpon and sailfish on the fly rod, and this is more work then either one of those fish because I will be blind casting all of the time.

Kevin
