What I need to catch fish and what I prefer to use to catch fish are entirely different things.

Glad to hear it Tony. I'm looking forward to seeing old friends and new friends.

Awesome footage/compilation Ben, good tune as well. Thanks for putting it together.

I think I'll stock up tonight.

A couple of sweet fish Jay. Certainly leaves me hoping I get on the ice this year, been too long!

I believe we're done with this one. Keep your moral compass straight and true, keep an open mind, exercise tolerance and understanding for those who's opinions may vary from your own. You may even find friends you never knew existed or perhaps even "bigfoot."

Congrats to your son, tank of a perch and a great mount too.

Religion was created by man, not by God (any God) and a difference of religious beliefs has been (still is) fodder for the most destructive/violent acts against mankind on the planet! Of course that's just an opinion.

Julie and I will be there.

I like it...... <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/GaOKPFNf1Pk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kU1WCgm-RQw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

"Noodle Rod," that's an 80's term, not many hardcore steelheaders out there these days using one.

Beauty report Will, congrats on the PB's and thanks for sharing.

Maxima Ultra Green all the way!

Sounds romantic, I hope she accepts!

Red side up for visibility Brian.

Seems fishing related to me, don't worry bout the class clowns. You may or may not get used to them......

Bingo!

Glad to see you all had a great time, the laughs are a given and the stories oddly enough sound as familiar as prior trips I've had in your company .

Welcome aboard Chris.

All done tying but still listening....... <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wB2j6WI0zyc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Good Lord, has it been a year already! One year ago tomorrow (Black Friday) I took a road trip to pick up 1000 cork rings (all long gone). Upon arriving home the weather was just to gorgeous not to attend to some outside chores. I decided to clean the eaves troughs before the cold set in permanently. Didn't take long before I fell off the roof into the neighbours driveway breaking several ribs on my left side (front and back), two fingers on my left hand and my wrist in three places....... *ouch* The next day I cut off the cast and removed the finger splints so I could work on rod building......LOL Thinking I'll stay off the ladder tomorrow.

I don't know quite what to say Bob, the windfall is amazing and I'm happy for you. On the other hand I'm deeply saddened at your loss, I'd like to believe that in your sorrow your wife is still somehow looking after you. May you find some small comfort in that way of thinking. Regards and condolences to you Sir. Chris
