Thanks guys!
Allen,
Ronnie caught that on a 7wt switch rod! If he had been alone he probably wouldn't have landed it.

My old fishing buddy, Ronny, who is now fishing in Heaven caught this flathead on the Arkansas River. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a248/stevec53/Fall07fishing022.jpg The Arkansas River is like...
I have a couple of furry kids waiting for me here http://petloss.com/rainbowbridge.htm My furry kids are special to me, and it hurts to lose one!

Allen,
You can fish that hole anytime you want to. I don't own it and I am not the first person to fish it, LOL! I'm glad to see you got into them. The Arkansas can be a fickle River. Sometimes you...
It's tough to lose those furry kids, but I wouldn't think of living without a few of them around. We had to have both of our female shelties put down a little over a year ago. We still have the three...
Those furry kids really get into your heart. I had to have both of my female shelties put down about a year ago, exactly two weeks apart. We had both of them cremated. Although I miss both of them...
Thanks Ed! It's been a pretty good day so far, and I expect it to get better since I am home from work. My lovely wife is taking out for Thai food later!

This fly in olive has been a good smallmouth fly for me on the Elk River in SW Missouri.

I lost both of my female Shelties exactly two weeks apart last year. I loved them dearly and had a hard time with it. I know that both of them are patiently waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge....
Although flatheads were not the target, my buddy Ronnie caught this one on the Arkansas River here in Tulsa while striper fishing.

Hap,
You need to get a candy thermometer so you can check the temperature of your dye bath. It should be no higher than 140 Degrees Fahrenheit.

The Lower Illinois River is the closest. I haven't fished it recently but I have been hearing some good reports.
Steve
Hey Mikey! good to see ya buddy.

Byron,
The big eye hooks sold by Orvis are Daiichi 1110 hooks. You can buy the Daiichi hooks in packages of 100. The last I knew, Orvis only sold 25 packs. Just a heads up to save you some money on...
Robin,
I haven't fished Taney in a while, but I have had some excellent outings there in the past. My favorite area is the "Rocking Chair Hole". There should be a map on Lilley's site that shows how...
My daughter had to work so I took the 6 year old grandson fishing. The wind was howling, so we ended up fishing inside a covered dock with ultra-light spinning tackle. We caught several crappie, but...
I've caught a lot of crappie on this simple fly. Marabou tail, Polar Chenille body, and a bead-head.

Dave,
I have had some success fly fishing for channel cats. Like you, I have done best in farm ponds and reservoirs, usually on nymph patterns. My best producer to date has been a black...
I have been using the LL Bean "aquastealth" soles with studs for several years with no problems.

That's too cool, Steve. He is a lucky young man to have a Dad like you!
Steve
Happy birthday fellers!

Uncle Jesse,
The color is what is known as blue merle. I have seen aussies, shelties, and border collies, that are that color. Aussies are great dogs, too, and I would love to have one. All of the...
Allan,
His name is Enzo, after Enzo Ferrari. He will be busy, since my wife's passion is dog agility. She was a fly fishing fanatic until she got into agility trials. I don't think she has picked up...
Betty,
We got him a week ago and he was 15 weeks old when we got him.
