It alright, been very busy so haven't had much time at the vice... Tied up an olive and black wooly bugger last night, looks pretty good. I'm in the same boat as you, running out of hooks. Might make a run to BPS to look at reels for there spring sale and grab some hooks.

What reels did you get? I want to get a casting reel for a heavy action rod for fishing heavy heavy cover...

It would be great to hear from some other baitcasting owners!
