Eric,
Don't become discouraged. Diabetes is a lifetime of work in progress. The one thing that you need to remember is that there is no cure. This is a progressive disease that can only be managed....

Dave you old pirate!
May the wind always be fair and in yer sails, the women kind to ye', and may the Good Father above watch o'er ye. Aaaarrrrrgggggghhhhhhh, we'll miss ye lad, keep us posted. ...

My wife blames everything on the cat until I get home from work then it's my fault! Seriously though, I brush my cat then use the under fur that's stuck on the brush for dubbing to make GRHEs. His...

I bought a pair of Cocoons fit over Rx sunglasses about 3 years ago and have pretty much used them every day since then. They work great for fishing in just about any light and I can't fish without...

Sorry, but the Susquehanna river and the bottom part of the Juniata river are for all intents and purposes dead. The PFBC has been trying to sell everyone on the fact that this is just nature in a...

Mike,
I hope this doesn't arrive too late to help you out. I was down there two weeks ago and had some luck at the Propeller Slough and Marina Channel at the Oregon Inlet. I had a puppy drum, sea...

Eric,
Greetings from a neighbor down the road from you. I too am a Type 2 Diabetic. Everyone has given you great information so I'll not waste a lot of time repeating it because they're right. This...

Thanks guys,
I have always liked Cortland and have used them on nearly all my freshwater rods. I didn't know how good SA Master Series was and my preference is not towards the regular ol' SA lines,...

Winter Greetings,
I just bought a new saltwater rod. I got a TFO Lefty Kreh 9ft 9wt (Med. Fast) and I want to line it correctly for fishing. About the only saltwater fishing I get to do is down at...

Hey Justice League,
Fly fishing at OBX is a very spotty thing. I've been trying to fly fish down there in late July/early August for the past 4 years and a lot depends on the water temp. The web...

Thanks a lot folks. I appreciate all the pointers and tips. I will definately try to get some pictures of the unknown rod and locate assistance in downloading them. I was checking out the Montegue on...

Thanks again guys Can anyone guess on the 2nd rod?
I read on another thread on an easy way to make one of the rods a 6'. When I get a handle and a reel seat, will I also need a piece of blank to...

Thanks for the responses, I really appreciate the help. Ok, here's a description of what I'm looking at.

Rod 1- green wraps with gold borders, Well's grip with silver colored metal reel seat....

Hey thanks for the tips guys. I'll check on the markings etc. tonight and let you know. I don't think either are very high end rods although the one is in a Hardy rod bag. I really just want to make...

Greetings,
Now that winter is coming up fast here in PA, I'd like to start tackling one of the projects that I've had for a time. I'd like to restore a 50-60 year old bamboo rod. I have no idea who...

Thanks Darrell,
It's good to get some info from someone who lives up there. I'll be sure to check out the website you posted for some ideas.
Still chompin' at the bit,
Rev Mike

Hey Philly,
Thanks for the info. It was just what I was looking for. I don't think it matters if you fish a couple of hundred miles east. I've heard that up there if you throw a bare hook into a mud...

Hello again,
Yes, it's close to winter and I am back to the board since I don't get to fish that often over the winter. This time I have a question about fly fishing in Ontario, Canada. Has anyone...

I live in Enola. Just across the river from Harrisburg. My Home waters used to be Opossum Lake near Carlisle, but the PFBC decided that the dam was dangerous and drained the lake. Now I need to find...

Ahoy thar Eight thumbs,
It's not cold enough for the pirates to come ashore and tell their tales by the fire! It's got to be so cold that the floridians put on long pants and the northerners don't...

Hey Bill,
Did some conventional tackle fishing from the piers. Only got a trigger fish. Tried FFing in the surf and only got wet! Best time was with Sarah! I'm sure she helped you with the casting...

Hey Mateys!
I just caught my first saltwater fish on a fly! What a feeling! It was grrrreaaat! I was fishing with Capt. Sarah Gardner on the "Fly Girl" out of Oregon Inlet, NC and she put me on some...

Hey Mateys,
Things have warmed up here in Central PA. and the bass are being as persnickity as trout. In fact the trout are bitin' like bass! Must be TMI.
Anyway, the annual pilgramage to the salt...

GOD speed Al, and thank you for helping a fumble fingered novice fly tyer to have fun. Your memory will live on in your lessons and advice. You are missed.
My prayers and sympathy to Al's family....

Aye Mateys,
So you been missing the company of yer fellow pirates, have ye. Well the Rev has been busy with the honey do list trying to get it done before the best o'the season comes. I did sneak...
