Ya right, you use the cigg filters, and I’ll stick with the okies ! But, only if we have to wink.

But, -2, I did catch the biggest buck Steelhead of the week on the Hoh one year back in the Jurassic, waiting at the take out for the truck & trailer guy to return. Dam fish hit a “solid flo-flame Red color” non see thru Okie that my bud called the “Gas Can” A Great Fish it was, 17 pounds, plus/minus, Chrome, and covered in sea lice, but I still didn’t like those dang Okie drifters, except at that time...
