Both the Party Shorts and Bolivar CM I got recently have had this amount of discrepancy. Taste just fine but I too was a bit stunned by the difference in ring gauge.

I've a box of RASS that are the same way. Though this has been discussed before,

you do bring up a valid point. I thought during sorting that like color, size, etc

would be boxed together. Perhaps this does not apply to girth?

certainly does. they are usually meticulous - at least whenever i have watched them. they'll have dozens of piles. it might be more for co-ordinating colour but size plays a role.

i also have a box of RASS ( POS MAR 06 ) that are the same way .... a few actually are the ring gauge of a petit corona ..... i assumed they just got more "smashed" as a result of being crammed into the box .....

Well Dr. K, what do you think? Could it possibly be that once like sizes / colors

are boxed together, they simply box together whatever remains?

Maybe your bestest bud gave you one of these boxes of remnants?

As an aside, now that you're smoking the twiggies, you may need help clearing

out some of your bigger sizes - say the SLR DC for instance?

I'm at your service.

Funny, the ones I have that are out of kilter are almost all on the fat side - some

are easily 52, and perhaps a bit larger!

i remain completely committed to SLR DC's!

» Found some of the same in inconsistncies with a SigVI tubo comparison.

» Notice the difference in shade and ring gauge.

wouldn't be surprised. the LE's have always been very dark.

Congrats ken on conquering your technical fears and learning how to post a few photos. I've had a few recent boli rc's that varied quite a bit in both ring gauge and length.

fair go! i managed this ages ago. how do you think the photos of those humungous trout etc got on the forum? you know the ones, far far bigger than anything rob has ever dreamt of. if you missed them, i'll happily re-post.

Oh thats right, how could I forget. I wouldn't be against a re-post, you know, for robs sake in case he's repressed the memories.

» Nice to see you edited out the guide who cast the rod.

could you be more bitter and twisted or do i have to tell bonefishing tales? we could compare photos - or perhaps not, you'd need some.

Hmmmm,

As a tubo lover, I have never thought to compare them, they generally get opened one at a time. Maybe ignorance is bliss. I learn something every time I visit this site, though.

I need nothing more than the sun on my back, a fine cigar and the challenge of piscatorial battle. What can an edited photo add which is not already burned deep into my subconscious.

To this day I believe that the Bonefish you are holding was struck dumb by the board shorts you were wearing.
