Not a fan of the heat and humidity any longer,but love my heat in the winter LOL

Read that this morning on his grandsons post. I was very shocked and sadden. He will be missed . RIP COOL CAT.

We have plans to hit PD in a couple of weeks bud. Will let you know when . Made my own 60 deg shank with a tube hook trailer articulating fly.

Speaking of far,I mailed out a package today that will be heading to Ecuador . A package of trout flys.

Thanks Doug. Any purple of pink ones hanging around? LMAO

I have searched high and low and covered youtube as best I could Cliff. NADA. I know Cliff pops on here every blue moon. Send him a pm.

Thanks for the comments all . I really like working with something new . Gets the brain waves al giddy . I bought a lot box of fly tying stuff . Some stuff was old and useless, but, there was this interesting vise with an adapter on it . Research and low and behold,it,s for tube flys . Search the box and there are some supplies and 2 rod needles . So youtube I go . I only have limited supplies, but managed to come up with my first go of a tube fly. Reverse palmer .There is a Canadian company that sells supplies . Looking forward to another adventure . Can always teach an old dog new tricks .

Starting to get requests for other ties . Some are from BC. I am always willing to try and please customer requests. It,s a new challenge for me,but once I got rolling, it,s alot of fun. Was on the river this morning and trying to fly fish the last tie, but the wind was brutal . There was a guy very curious on what I was using. He was so impressed with it, he ordered 6 of them along with 6 of the pink. I was wowed. Did not even know this guy. 20241101_083929.mp4

Personal smallie is 7.5, Simcoe. Largest bucket 5.2 on Couch. I know perfectly well I could just go fish lake simcoe or Lake ontario and get one, but it would feel like cheating to me. CHEATING????????? Maybe you should enter the fall derbies and show how it,s done. BUT, NO CHEATING LOL

Howdy Rick Yes,you put it in the right section.

It is an amazing app.

Terry is a great net holder. 😆 Scott's are pretty good. If you can find the down east ones,they are good as well. https://www.sail.ca/en/downeast-d-10-fishing-rod-holder-409856-1398150001?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces_across_google&utm_content=Marine (100AE)&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwps-zBhAiEiwALwsVYYmGy7syS4T6KdjVUPp3C4zSiFkJ8hYI4ozU5lZZjV6E0TZVoAAbORoCUmYQAvD_BwE

Was all for my love today. Some surf and turf. Mushroom cap escargot, shrimp,tuna salad and that steak. 😆 Tried this upgraded beef from Zhers. That will be my last try. Terrible.

Pennies on the dollar cat.
