Fly Line Management For a Skiff or Kayak

shannon | August 29, 2018

Fly Line Tamer for Skiffs and all fly fishing boats

Hey guys! I have had this project on the back burner for a few months now, but this dang wind has inspired me to pour my first mold of rubber for this fly line tamer. The rubber is incredibly strong and expensive. I see now why places like Carbon Marine charge almost double what I am charging to make the Texas version!

This is also great for kayakers who fly fish! Finally, a way to manage your line so you don’t end up losing a tournament fish like I did at the Lydia Ann several years ago! It’s about time something like this was made locally and available to my buddies!

SPECS:

  • 14.75″ across
  • Extremely flexible
  • Extremely durable
  • You can step on it and spikes will bend
  • Base weight keeps it safely on deck – won’t blow off!
  • Clear – no color added
  • Limited One Year Guarantee against defect in workmanship
  • $95 usd includes shipping within Continental USA
  • Made upon ORDERING! Not a Stocked Item!

To order, just go over to the right side of this site and click on the PayPal button in that AD! Once you have ordered, it will take about two weeks to be manufactured, and you will be notified when it ships UPS Ground.

Once this version gets off the ground, I can imagine another spike for a guy like me who fly fishes from the poling platform … I can dream, can’t I?

FLY FISHING GUIDE

If you are looking to catch the golden bone - a carp on fly - you're in the right place! I guide for carp on a Lagoon Skiff technical poling skiff from Florida, and it's barely an hour's drive from Fort Worth and Dallas. Hard to believe, right?

Not only that, I am happy to share a load of information with you about the beautiful, and still Mayberry-esque town of Pilot Point, Texas, which is less than five minutes from the best carp flats lake in Texas.
