- Umpqua hooks are sus | The North American Fly Fishing Forum - sponsored . . .
Umpqua also has a "fly" hook that has 3 barbs, ( They call it the Triple Threat) and VMC introduced that same type of hook It's probable that Umpqua is having their brand of hooks made by a different manufacturer, ( maybe VMC )or even possibly multiple manufacturers

- Tippet leader (Rio vs scientific Angler) | The North American Fly . . .
Umpqua Rio Orvis Trouthunter I've found Trouthunter and Seaguar cheaper on eBay as none of my local places carry either one Late last year, Orvis ran a bunch of theirs on closeout at ridiculously low prices and I stocked up Out of all that I use, Rio is my least favorite
- Chest Pack? | The North American Fly Fishing Forum - sponsored by . . .
I can fit two large sized CF boxes and two large sized Umpqua boxes in the main compartment The "waterproof zipper" isn't such and has cost me a handful of cans of copenhagen I sewed a velcro patch on top and put a fly patch thing on there
- Your favorite fly boxes? Not a fan of UPG LT’s
I’m curious what your favorite fly boxes are I bought some of the Umpqua UPG LT boxes, and this may go against popular option, but I don’t like them The flies are too hard to get in and out of the boxes Good advertising though! The reason i went with the umpqua was because i wanted some thinner, that was the main idea
- Tiemco Hook Shortage? | The North American Fly Fishing Forum . . .
In the local fly shop today picking up a few hooks and was told their orders from Umpqua were not being filled Said they were being sued by one of the smaller companies they owned or used to own and it was somehow causing a shortage of Tiemco hooks This is all I know and the story as told to
- Favorite fly boxes | The North American Fly Fishing Forum - sponsored . . .
I don't understand the lack of proper compartment (individual door) boxes available today Seems like an opportunity for somebody to come out with something I carry the C F, but they're awfully thick Tacky only makes single sided boxes, unless you go the Orvis route The Umpqua are super heavy and the slits are a little wonky
- Line cleaning optimisation | The North American Fly Fishing Forum . . .
I use Umpqua Glide and believe it works well When a line seems not right I have regular Bounty Paper Towels under my console and pull the wet line through a towel while putting a good squeeze on it This removes dirt pretty well as evidenced by a brown stripe where the line was pulled through
