    It has been many years since I have done any fly fishing, but I want to get back into it. Most of my fishing will be done on my private pond for blue gill and crappie but some bass also. So I believe that a six weight rod would be the best. I have it narrowed down to three rods. Sage Bass...

    Lapua Brass

    What are the chances that Lapua would ever make brass for the straight 284, or one of the other 7mm. I figured since they make 6.5-284 if there was enough interest we might get them to make straight 284, but what would it take? I am wanting to start gathering parts to build a new 7mm just...
