G Loomis Current fly reel
Feb 12th 2010
Well after about 5 hours and lots of pit stops I finally made it to Miami for the Miami Boat Show. Nothing interesting to write about besides me complaining about the traffic etc.. so I’m skipping it for today. 
I did get a chance to check out this new fly reel from G. Loomis. It’s called the “Current” I guess that is named after their highly reguarded fly rod series of the name Cross Current. I Googled it up and some of the descriptions says “It’s the Stella of the fly reel world”. (Stella spinning reels are considered the best in it’s class which is up there)
It is my opinion, I would have to disagree with that statement. Though the $400 fly reel looks and feels nice, craftsmanship wise it is definitely not the best I have seen in my young career as a fly fisherman. Me, personally it’s not a big deal but where the reel is made will turn many of the higher end fly reel customers. On the plus side, it does however come with an extra spool and the drag is waterproof. The extra spool alone can cost $200.00 on some of the higher end fly reels.
“River Poon Looking”
Last Saturday my friend Joe was in town, so we took a run up river to search for any pre – pre – season poons lying around….we confirmed only 3 fish so we just took a cruise looking at the many amazing homes that are up that far, very impressive to say the least. Nothing special with the photos…with back to back fronts producing freezing temps once again it has been hard to find anytime to get out ~ let the cold stop already!!!

Mirro Lure Scented baits, Mirro Lure came through, free mirrolure, newsletter, Miami Boat Show
Feb 11th 2010
mirro lure provoker
Most of the day yesterday was spent running around trying to catch up on things. When I arrived home, at my door step, was a box of the new scented plastics from Mirro Lure. Mirro Lure came through and sent me some lure for review and give out to readers of Saltyshores via the Saltyshores Newsletter. I had asked for mainly the new scented soft plastics as we had already reviewed the Mirro prop a couple months ago.
They also included their new hats and visors to give away. The new ones are the ever popular camouflage patterns with redfish and trout on the side.
Speaking of Mirro Lure. Freemirrolure.com is giving away a free hard plastic mirrolure with every T-shirt purchased. The shirts are not $50 either, they are only $19 bucks. 
And if you put in the code “capmel” at the end you gonna get another 25% off. So doing the math, $20-25%(about $5) = $15 – mirrolure cost about $6, You’re getting the shirt for $9 plus shipping. Not too shabby of a deal these days.
I’m scrambling as usual because I’m heading down to the Miami Boat show 2010. This is the largest boat show in the southeast. It has contracted quite a bit since the heyday due to the slow economy but it is still pretty darn big. There’s lots to see and people to meet. If the weather is good I will try to sneak in a fishing trip but for the most part I will be looking to network down there. Network is a waaaay over used words.. basically what I mean is I’m going there to shake hands, meet people, say hello to old friends and contacts. It seems frivolous at first but when people know you and like you(key word “like” you) they tend to send you work and help each out in that matter.
I’m going to be down there for a few days, so if you are around and bump into me, love to meet you. I would love to hear suggestions and constructive criticism on how to improve Saltyshores to make it a better overall experience for everyone.(man that ended very generic sounding, sounds like I’m at Disney) Anyways I’ll be down there.. the end.
