Whoops... logged on seriously with some time for a change, and finally located it, just as Hal said. I misread what Fred said, and thought he meantthe whole FORUM was gone...
Sorry 'bout that!

Hal, you ARE an "old timer". Man, in just a couple of years, you will be the big 60! Now, that's not exactly a "teenager", you know!
So, just relax and enjoy it - there is NO way you can prevent it!!

Looks like they've 'removed' the 'board,' but you now access same by 'clicking' on the spey pages icon at the top center of the page.

Mr Evans just because people have a formal education does not mean they are omniscent, just look at me for example, 3 years I am still a spey neophyte on the dark expensive journey into its never ending black hole deptns. LOL
BTW, whats this Carron Jet Stream line for a $ 150 each I see, what will do for me that the Rio Windcutter will not. Please don't say cast over 100 feet I don't need that out here.

Carron Jet Stream is easy to cast, makes a WC look like a Model A.
"formal education" two years at a JC

"Please don't say cast over 100 feet I don't need that out here."
H2H has pretty well nailed it down. The price (apparently)is due to the small production run (Partridge in the UK?) for Carron. Understand someone else will be doing the lines shortly and HOPEFULLY the price will come down.
And, If I were asked by someone 'what line would you suggest for very long casts ...' The Carron would be my first answer, the XLT would be the second (but at half the cost)

Hello Membership,
Sometime this evening the speyclave and speypages will be moving servers and will no longer be hosted along side Flytalk.
Juro, Dana and I have been discussing a better separation between the boards for some time and today is the day. We were going to do this next week when Dana was in town but due to unforseen circumstances we are having to do this today.
So what does this mean to the members:
Nothing really. When you click on New Posts you will now only see spey clave posts and posts from the striper boards will no longer be mixed in.
You will still be able to access the board from these links:
http://www.speyclave.com
http://www.speypages.com
Like I said earlier we are just doing this to separate the boards from each other.
Sponsors will still be here and will be honored on both sites even though they are separated out. They are still the ones keeping the lights on around here.
We will still maintain a link to the flytalk so the members can easily get between sites.
You logins will still work on the new site.
Other changes:
Dana and I have agreed to have me come back as the webmaster and admin for the speypages.com. I will not be coming back to the flyfishing forum. I look forward to 2005 and we have a ton of cool stuff coming up to further enhance what is already the best spey site on the web.
Tyler(kush), Duggan (sinktip) and Sandi have agreed to stay on as moderators for which we are extremely grateful.
I know there had been talk of the speypages not being around in 2005 but that is far from happening. Dana and I are coming into this change with a renewed energy and I think you all will be very pleased with with our plans for the site. I know I am.
How the move will happen:
This evening I will turn off posting on the spey clave. This is so we will not lose any new posts between the time it will take for me to move the posts over to the new board. This should take about an hour and you will see a welcome post from me on the other site.
That is it, speypages.com is already pointing to the new server and all we have left is to move the forum. If you see an bugginess please report it to me right away.
Dana and I appreciate your patience as we make this move and we look forward to a great 2005.

Very nice. Glad to see it's out on it's own where it belonged in first place. Glad Dana got everything worked out.

Fred Close but no cigar.
Truth,
Carron will still continue to produce their lines. Priced at £75 $140 ish US, or £85 $160ish US for the big one 85ft head.
Partridge are producing a new line of lines. These lines are also designedby Ian Gordon but are a developement of the Carron, having a longer belly, shorter front and back tapers. These will retail at £55 or just over $100 ish US.

At $75-$135 the US made lines are bad enough .. but $140-160 really is 'over the top!' And I don't care how good the line may be.
