Hey guys- My wife Colleen Trayser is the Midwest Simms Rep, you maybe saw us at last year's Bonzeback Blowout. She has some year old gear from a Michigan dealer that she offered to sell as a favor to them. Before I put it on eBay I thought I'd give my Smallie brothers a shot first. As you may know you very rarely find Simms gear discounted. All of it is brand new...so here's a list for your attention. Most of the prices are about 33% discounted: Fleece guide pants, small, black and $80 Freestone Boots size 8....$70 Windstopper Jacket, brick red XL and Large....$149 Guide Fleece Zip Top w/chest zipper, black, 2 Mediums....$80 Guide Vest, grey in Medium and Small.......$90 Wader Wick Pant, black, XXL.....$30 Windstopper Lightweight Vest, black, I have 2 Mediums.....$90 Lightweight Wading Boot, I have 3 pairs of size 9....$88 Guide Weight waders!!!

Call John Trayser 630.549.0606 or email me at johntrayser@gmail.com May the weather be with us!!!!

We are new to the Duper and tried around Shorewood this weekend...caught only one in a seam on a Meat Whistle. Most of the river looked pretty flat otherwise. Was that because the river is still a bit high? Also, there were a bunch of caddis fluttering around...does anyone see rising fish ever looking to gobble them?

There is a reason that Simms Fishing Products no longer makes felt soled wading boots...and they are banned totally in New Zealand! These invasive species are the biggest threat to our long term happiness in the fishing world. If you ever have seen diddy mo that is killing streams in NZ...it would truly bring tears to your eyes. One of my favorite streams in Montana has it...today there is no cure for it. Let's give felt the BOOT in 2010!!!!!
