Bob is either updating the board or needs to reindex. He may need to turn the board off while he updates links. He did say he was going to hack the board, not sure if he is finished.

I could really use some help finding the white backer rod. can't find it!!! anybody know where I can find it around Olympia or Tacoma?

Hey Guys
Maybe Andy could sell you some rod? If not you could call R&R Marine in Port Angeles and ask to have some shipped.
If these options don't work I will go buy it and sell you some.

Thanks Marty i have been lookin for days with no luck.I have been usin the grey it worked saturday for me but would rather have the white.

Hey guys the way I found good foam for the rags is to look up in the phone book under foam shops in your local areas. I live in Seattle and they have about 5 foam shops locally. They work great for the rags!! Hope this helps. tight lines, see ya!

I've got a source in Tumwater,for redish pink color, e-mail me for more info I can get the white also ,I buy it bulk let me know guys

Men are like fish we get into trouble when we open our mouths to much!!

I'm interested in the foam company(s).. I fish a lot of puff balls and would be interested in having them make me up some??? Do you think they could do this?

Sorry guys ... don't know what happened to it. Every once in a while, I think stuff just gets launched into never-never land for no particular reason.

Hey TH why would you want a foam company to make puff balls for you?there pretty damn cheap as it is,i don't think there's a person out there that fishes enough puff balls to make it economicaly worth it to have a foam company make them for you,just my .02,good luck

FISH ON!!!

Hey Steelheader Boy. Where is your source in Oly area, if you don't mind divulging the info.? I've been keeping my eyes open in all of the home improvement and fishing stores. So far I have only seen the stuff at Narrows Marina in Tacoma but the price for a package of three 3 inch pieces was $1.79(?) and seemed high. Luckily I have an aquaintence who bought a 1200 foot spool of white with four or five of his buddies and he is willing to share some. However, it's amazing how many friends he's got now. I would feel better if I could find some of my own and replace some of his.

I have looked all over for this white rod and can't find it. I might have a place found now. gotta go check them out this week. they are in Fife, kinda across from the Harly shop. I found the red stuff. the funny thing is a few of the places I have checked say they have allot of people looking for it to make fishing stuff. I smiled and said that is what I was wanting it for.

Yes that is the place. I will go tomorrow and check it out. on the phone they said they carry white but were out and would get some in soon. maybe they don't know that I want white not the light gray.

Hey guys,Try r&r marine in p.a.Marty said to try there, I did and they have white they will ship it to you.

Its 15.00 for 20ft. kinda spendy but worth it if you cant find it anywhere else!

Try Fisherman's Marine and Outdoor in Portland 1-800-718-2628. They sell the 3/8" RAG foam for 3ft/$1.99. If they are out ask for Mike Codino and tell him to get Kelly Reickner to order more. If that is not fast enough try Chris V at 1-503-335-3849. Chris also will part with the foam for 3ft/$1.99, but shipping in unknown. Chris can get 1/2" too but it is more $ and would take some time to get. The foam comes in diameters up to about 3 inches, I have some 3/4", 1", and 1.5" for floats. I'll check back to be sure everyone get the RAG foam they need. Take care.

NOTHING!!

I checked the place in fife and it was some yellow stuff. so I am back to ground zero. this stuff is like gold!!!

I have tried some of the gray stuff but no luck. I am using pink, red and white yarn. I will keap flipen these maybe I will get it to work. I have used them with bait and without. with scents and without. I know they are killer. I have seen several guys out fish me 10:1 with them.

I really don't wanna buy it out of town if I don't have to. but that is what it is coming to.
