new guy here
just wanted to say hi. my name is Ken Mowrey and i live in the Great Adirondacks. i am an avid fly fisherman who loves to fish everything from small stream brookies to bass and pan fish in the big lakes. i live by some of the most beaitufull trout stream saround and live with in a half hour from a outtstanding old fly tier named Ed Bendel who owns and operates his own shop. Ed ties some real beautys and has come up with a couple of his own that i use all the time. here are a couple pic's form yesterday while fishing a small creek by my house. caught some real nice rainbows and brookies using a adironadck nymph ( Ed's own custom!! ) and a Joe's smelt which Ed also tied. all fish i catch are strict catch and release. i hope to share in some good fly fishing conversation with you all. good luck and tight lines,
Ken

Ken,
A warm welcome to you.
I'm a little ways off from your home waters, but there are many members in you neck of the woods.
I too have only been lurking abouts for a short time here, but the ADMIN (JC &LF) seem to be willing to put up with their Northern Cousin.
Pull up a chair at the Chat some time.
There are good people here.

Hi Ken, I am new here too. This summer, among other things, I am trying to catch some of the Catskill brook trout.
Nice pictures of the fish you caught. Another things I want to learn is the digital camera; maybe in the future I will catch some fish and have pictures, too.
All the best.
