Re: What the fluff?

Sounds like a good case for some video assistance! That would certainly go hand in hand with broadcasting.

Re: What the fluff?

Hi Henry, Thanks for your reply. I would have thought that now the rule changes allow for a decent fly to be used, that is visible and readily floats (as opposed to the flies we were being given to use previously) that judging the fly position would be less difficult. Is this a ACA rule too? Thanks,...

I’d prefer a softer rod and it would suit me much better, but I don...

Re: What the fluff?

So it doesn’t say and is open to intermediation. Nice that they have clarified that you can bring your own flies. The ones supplied were not palmered but instead only hackled at the front (as dries) with short clipped tails. They didn’t hover well and having well tied comp flies will definitely help...

Re: What the fluff?

Hi John,
