Did a little video on how these thing work. You can purchase these through "THE FLY DESK"

Well done Joni.

Descriptions and diagrams are great, but not nearly as good as a demonstration.

Good video

[font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4][Image: happy.gif]Yup a picture [especially a talkie] is worth a 1000 words. We can always count on the FGD to come up with a new twist on communicating ideas. Great job. BTW how did you ever get into that TV box? [Image: bobwink.gif] Also for the non-techies what program did you use to produce the video?[/size][/#008000][/font]

Well as I posted in a different topic, I am beginning to really like that Olympus Stylus 730, I got for Christmas.
It has a great video mode. I down loaded it to photo bucket. The TV frame is a feature of Photobucket adobe.

now you are openning a can of worms.

Now I am waiting for videos on:
thingamabobs,
rigging tippet onto furled leaders with steel rings.
making the surgeons loop and controling the loop size.

oh and then there are a jillion other things.

Thanks for the video on slip bobbers ... ahhhhh..... I mean indicators.

[font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4][Image: happy.gif]A question or two. The ad mentions the size of indicators available. Now does ¾" mean length, diameter or circumference? Also are you playing your line out as it would seem that one's line with the indicator attached would mess up the presentation.[/size][/#008000][/font]

I am pretty sure that means you plop it out there in front of you, strip of some line, back paddle your toon aways, drink a beer and study the indicator.


Sounds like another video to me.

Thanks Scruffy, that is what I do with a 12' + leader as it is impossible to cast but I do use the smaller ones for rivers and just push the peg in tighter.
Dry Rod, the measurement is the length of the Styrofoam.
I bought some 1 1/2" for my next trip but usually use the 1". The bigger seem to darn near set the hook themself.
I use the little ones on the rivers.

[cool][font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4]That makes sense about the measurement. I was waiting for you to say that you casted that sucker and I was going to catch the next plane up to UT and take a video of that myself. [Image: bobwink.gif] I can see how that would work quite nicely from a float tube. Just lay it out on the water and give the flippers a go. [/size][/#008000][/font]
