What style Mustads do you like best ?    I always used 79791 and 79792 until they became hard to find.  Now I use Edgar Sealy 1701 Octopus hooks.    Can't find a better hook around these parts !    Sealy hooks are made in England.

I like the scud style hook don't know the number. also the X510 Mustad or something like that, 6s and 8s. The point looks like a broadhead.

Had a fun 4 days at the river Thursday to today, however i had an 11' G. Loomis Switch rod stolen. It is a 4 piece rod. It's a Roaring River in a brown Native Run case. I will give 100bucks if anyone returns it.

Cold smoking?  Do you anything about smoking salmon? Its not that easy. I do alot of smoking meat, making sausage and stuff. I've been told mine is the best vension summer sausage some have ever had. Since you mate and are from Oswego you could corner the market in it over there. I don't think anyone smokes fish there. If you need any tips on wood or anything pm me. Just so you know real smoked salmon is done with alder. Its pricey. Hickory is bitter. Maple just makes it taste like bacon

That really blows! Did they break into the vehicle? I leave valuables in my ride up there all the time, if people are breaking into vehicles I may re-consider.

I hope somehow your rod makes it home.
