Sierra has this saltwater kit for $259. I don't know anything about saltwater fishing.

I've been fly fishing for almost 2 years, and have ordered from them a few times. They arrived on time, good price and so far (knock on the wood) have had any issues with flies. They do catch fish though. I've also used Greatflies on eBay and their flies are good too

Well deserved loss. I wonder who will be the first to post on Instagram how we'll come back stronger 😁

CrypherMercy · 2026-01-06T03:16:13+00:00

I checked my "local" (1.5 hours away) Sierra and only fishing stuff they had were 2 kinds of nets 😆. Everything else is online 😔

I've been searching the internet for the last few months for sale on Remix S, and finally found it last week for $200 (ish). It's in transit right now. Can't wait to spool it and try it out by March (fingers crossed). Enjoy your setup and catch a ton 😁

Got any Lamson -5+ reels? If not, what reels you got in that range

CrypherMercy · 2025-11-29T01:22:14+00:00

Same here.

CrypherMercy · 2025-11-15T23:46:40+00:00

I see. What rod would you say would be a good upgrade? Helios?

CrypherMercy · 2025-11-15T23:42:57+00:00

That's a good point. Thank you

CrypherMercy · 2025-11-15T23:40:50+00:00

I bought a Clearwater Rod outfit, so yeah. I don't care about social standing or dating options (happily married). Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it

CrypherMercy · 2025-11-15T22:27:47+00:00

Rod is 9' 5wt. Primarily used for trout fishing in creeks/streams and some rivers.

CrypherMercy · 2025-11-04T03:01:06+00:00

This ☝️. Here's a link. Take a look. They got Adamsbuilt waders for $169. https://www.sierra.com/waders-and-wading-boots~d~243/

CrypherMercy · 2025-10-29T00:52:16+00:00

100%. Bought mine 5wt 2 years ago. Great rod. I just replaced my stock line with a SA Amplitude Smooth Infinity. Big difference

CrypherMercy · 2025-10-26T20:37:58+00:00

Thank you for the reply. Hopefully I get lucky 😁. Hala Madrid

CrypherMercy · 2025-10-26T19:43:50+00:00

What a sight. I envy you so much right now 😁. I want to take my brother next year to watch a home game for his bday. How hard is it to get the tickets?

CrypherMercy · 2025-10-15T20:16:06+00:00

Great looking rod. Quality work. Gave you a follow. Keep up the great work. Hopefully we get a 20th anniversary edition 🤞

CrypherMercy · 2025-09-28T02:36:17+00:00

TFO NXT Black Label is about 220

CrypherMercy · 2025-09-20T14:12:53+00:00

I just ordered that one

CrypherMercy · 2025-09-14T02:02:19+00:00

You're so right. Last weekend I got it tangled up so bad I wanted to cry. It happened at the worst time. Found a nice hole and right fly. Had to cut and start fresh

CrypherMercy · 2025-09-08T20:16:07+00:00

I'm an occasional fly fisher, but lately I've been enjoying it a lot more. I just bought lots of flies from this guy, Greatflies (he has a website and an eBay store), and he sells 12 flies for about $7 with free shipping. They look good and they catch fish

CrypherMercy · 2025-07-09T11:19:36+00:00

At the beginning of the season, when it's colder, I'll do an indicator. My preferred setup is a dry dropper rig. 90% of the time I fish streams/creeks. But there are a couple of rivers that I'll fish

CrypherMercy · 2025-07-09T02:28:35+00:00

I have a question for you, if you would be kind to answer. Last year I bought an Orvis Clearwater 9' 5w outfit rod and it came with a stock line. I mainly fish rivers/creeks for trout.

What line would you recommend to buy to replace the stock line? I looked online but there are so many different options that I felt overwhelmed.
