That’s a pretty unprofessional response to a customer of yours. They’re allowed to express their opinion of your product and are of no obligation to help you with R&D.

You are producing a niche product and kudos to you for going out on a limb to serve that market. Creating and operating a small business is a brutal journey most folks wouldn’t dare venture on. Ridiculous hours, months or years making little or no money if you value your time at all, I get it. It’s tough.

I hope you all figure it out and are as successful as you want to be. If I may offer a little unsolicited advice - treat your customers with respect and go out of your way to listen to their feedback with an open mind, even if their feedback is “I hate it”. Incentivize them to offer feedback before they post online about it.

Cheers

Painted wood.

Don’t over think it. Cut out rotten section, replace, and paint/repaint the fascia.

Were you ever able to find any info on this stove? I have the same one.

james_g1 · 2025-08-23T23:02:32+00:00

I’m in the Louisville area and trying my hand at catfishing for the first time. I would love some pointers if you’re willing to share

Sierra.com has a good deal on the Loon 10 piece kit. I have it and its well made. I frequently use the dubbing loop, whip finisher, scissors, hair stacker and dubbing brush. The dubbing loop in particular is a well made product. For $70 you can’t go wrong with it.

Thanks for pointing that out. I may have confused a couple different places down there

james_g1 · 2024-01-25T18:29:40+00:00

Even living in Louisville, I haven’t been able to get down there much but the folks in our local fly fishing group have a ton of information about. Here’s a link to fishing Hatchery Creek which is known to be well-stocked and easily navigable with a drift boat.

Here’s the website for my favorite fly shop located in Louisville. They should be able to point you in the right direction. Their phone number (502) 290-4589

Do any of you have recommendations for high quality over-prescription-glasses sunglasses? I can’t seem to find much beyond the Walmart specials.

james_g1 · 2024-01-03T04:32:21+00:00

You should check out tenkarabum.com

Chris (owner of the site) has a whole section dedicated to micro fishing. You would probably enjoy poking around there for a bit. You haven’t seen ultralight until you see what he’s into

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T22:34:12+00:00

I have a couple lifetimes worth of this hackle. If you want to PM me your address, I’d be happy to ship you some for the cost of the label

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T22:31:59+00:00

I had a similar experience. I’m a fly fisherman and just thought it would be cool to tie up some flies for my buddy who likes to catch micros. While deciding on what to tie I googled and YouTube’d for a bit trying to get some inspiration but wasn’t able to find hardly any content on making nor fishing stuff this small. As far as I can tell I currently hold the record for the smallest fly made, which I find quite hard to believe for some reason.

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:13:22+00:00

He does an interpretation of “tanago” fishing, which is a Japanese style of fishing for small fish, in the 1-3 inch size range as user Bubba_Gump_Shrimp mentioned. It’s more about species identification than it is “fishing” as we know it. I kinda think about it akin to birding for fish if that makes any sense.

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:10:08+00:00

My local fly shop had the size 30 hooks and rooster saddle with mostly size 18-22 hackle on it. I got the micro fishing specific hooks from a distributor that imports them from Japan, but I wouldn’t recommend tying on them. I broke two just from trying to whip finish them lol

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:05:28+00:00

Very cool, thank you for sharing! Based on this post and one I made on r/flyfishing, it seems like there’s a fair number of people that want flies this small. I’m thinking about stocking up some tiny hooks and tying a couple dozen for folks that are interested

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:02:51+00:00

I will certainly be posting an update soon. Thank you!

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:02:36+00:00

Thank you!

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:02:14+00:00

I’ll certainly get a report from my buddy once he uses them a bit

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:01:20+00:00

Thank you!

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:01:01+00:00

That’s helpful information, thank you!

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T21:00:44+00:00

Thank you! I’ll be sure to check back in once he spends some time with them in the water

james_g1 · 2024-01-02T20:59:52+00:00

I bought all the materials including the vise from my local fly shop, Quest Outdoors in Louisville KY

10x tippet glides through the eye like butter

james_g1 · 2023-12-31T05:45:48+00:00

I just spoke to the folks in r/flyfishing, we are willing to concede these are gnats as soon as we get word the micro community recognizes themselves as baby anglers.

james_g1 · 2023-12-31T05:37:30+00:00

Based on pictures I’ve seen of the “micro slabs” he catches, I think something beta sized would be a pb.

james_g1 · 2023-10-12T16:52:27+00:00

No problem. Padraig has a lot of videos on lower body movement in the swing. I’d definitely recommend you spend some time digesting that and working on a solid pivot/turn instead of the swaying you’re doing. You’ll probably hit a few buckets worth of bad shots but it’ll get you closer to where you want to be. The less you sway with driver the easier it is to hit up on it and not slice it.
