I fish dry flies or dry/droppers most of the time but when I do use an indicator (or bobber) I use the Dorsey system that is simply a poly yarn through a loop created by one of the tiny rubber band’s orthodontists use for braces. I do not have trouble with it moving/sliding, probably because...
NDSU women had a really good season this year, eventually losing to Minnesota in the NIT. Their best player was a 6’3” guard from Minnesota who shot about 50% from beyond the three point line. After their season ending loss I heard her talk about how the team was like, “family” and how much she...
