When we think of the greatest bands of all time, who comes to mind? The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin — without a doubt, some of the most reputable music acts of our time. It seems everyone born before the year 2000 has some connection to those artists, even if it was listening t…

This week, I’m sending out summer solstice vibes for the winter that didn’t want to quit. Winter vibin.’ Sites not too far afield reported up to two feet of snow up high last week. As if we needed a reminder of our own mortality. You can run, but you can’t hide. Just like the old notion, “It…

Reyr Gear looked at traveling with a fly rod and realized what a hassle it can be. Four pieces, to the rod, a reed, the line through the eyelets — there are a lot of components to handle. So they designed a rod with the line routed through the center, enabling it to telescope to full length …
