FloatnFly

We had one swimming across the st Clair river one year when I was living in Sarnia.

Sail has the peak rotary vice on sale this week

Watched the funeral service, the stories were great from former teammates. why someone thought it was a good idea to chop onions, I don't know

And you can take the ferry across to the states in sombra, not far from wallaceburg either

My brother bought a place in Corinna for under 200, its huge, and easily a 700+ house here, the back yard is about 60ft deep and 200ft across, corner lot in a cul de sac

Wallaceburg is a great little town, your not far from Chatham or Sarnia, st Clair river offers great fishing for walleye, steelhead and salmon, musky, bass, like. I grew up in Sarnia, made many trips to Mitchell's bay. Got the biggest pike of my life from there, I was 10, saw it come up to the boat and freaked out, gave the rod to my dad lol. My first experience with a monster fish even though it was only around 30 inches

Eyewitnesses can only guess, ill wait for the flight data from the ntsb before guessing on his flying

Funeral service will be broadcast on sportsnet @3pm Tuesday

For a vise I use the griffin mongoose. Great vise for around $150, and the jaws are interchangeable, mine came with a screw clamp, but it's literally a quarter turn to loosen up. They also have a clamp set of jaws as well. I started off with the cheap fly tying kit vise, and upgraded after a few weeks when the screw finally stripped

A guy that used to mentor me at gagnons told me about a tyer in one of the clubs, he had lost the use of one arm, and was tying on #32 hooks........he would place the material with his teeth, then tie it with his good arm. I didn't complain about doing #18 hooks any longer

Get a magnifying light, will save a ton of eye strain for the smaller bugs. You know the kind, the ones with a magnifying glass with a circle of lights around it.

that guy should be fired, period

Morning it's 1.25 in the evening or after 8pm it's 1.14 at the same station. Tuesday went from 1.24 in the morning to 1.11 after 8pm Needless to say I only buy gas at night

I'm crying at this 'fly'. Almost like the mop fly

This one hit me hard, he was my idol and a source of inspiration during my playing days, he was about as near perfect as a pitcher could get

down again for me for about 30 minutes this morning

The 'blob' is a bead head, and it's just heals in place by extra thread wraps. Just adds a little weight to the fly and a bit of an attractant with the shiny bead

i'll get the name off the head cement i use, it doesn't have that effect. Michaels will become your friend for supplies, foam, embroidery thread (the multi strand stuff) is awesome for woven flies, and you can get a unique look and colour combos your beads you're using are too big for those hooks, they should slide over the hook point and rest up against the hook eye, you shouldn't be able to pull or push them over the eye of the hook. hollow side of the bead faces towards the body of the fly this is a very easy pattern, and pretty deadly for salmon and fall steelhead, its basically floss, marabou and flashabou wrapped around a spey hook Woven fly using embroidery thread(weaving isn't hard, just a bunch of overhand knots) these are easy easy easy, and you know how good pink worms are The first fly i ever tied

Always trim from the stem side of the hair or feather, never touch the thin end, that's the part that gives you the movement. So measure what you need for the tail, pinch it at the spot, tie it on where you have pinched, trim the excess that's covering the hook shank Davie mcphail is good to watch, and also in the riffle.

The best flies are usually a home made no name version, some can be quite deadly I don't whip finish my flies, I just do a knot, and a good coating of head cement. A few tips for the heads, should be the same size as the hook eye Tails usually no longer than the hook shank Hackle usually no longer than the hook gap

Don't forget the raccoons and fox, and coyote and dogs that drag them out as well

the dreaded mop fly....... can be deadly though

i once misunderstood a customer when they asked for a 3lb piece of beef tenderloin, somehow i had gotten it into my head that they wanted it ground, so i went through the whole process of explaining the price, and they said they weren't worried, they knew how much it was, so i went off to the back, trimmed a piece up, then put it through the grinder. the look on their face when i brought out 3lbs of ground beef and was going to charge them $75/kg for it. boy, did i ever go into panic mode after that.....
