Bought a small back pack but unfortunately don't remember where I got it. Called an "ALPS Mountaineering" pack. Has two plastic bottles in mesh holders, one on either side. I am diabetic so fill one...

What Tig said about "Loon Deep Soft weight". It's all I've ever used and it's so easy to add to or take away and like someone said before you can put it back in the tin at the end of the day. Like...
On one of the rare occasions that my dad took me hunting with him in the "Green Mountain" state of Vermont we also experienced an incredible snow day. Snow had fallen overnight to about eight or so...
Len,
That is a sad outcome indeed. You did everything you could but those gill lice took their toll it seems. Largest brown I ever caught, 28 inches, also scared me and took a while to revive...
Below information was received from a TU Chapter member and I don't know the original source, but, it's interesting reading.
FYI-
During May 1979, 1,061 catchable-sized, hatchery-reared...
jmccall,
Was your TU chapter stocking through the TU "Trout in the Classroom" program or as a chapter stand alone activity? I'd certainly be asking TU National for an explanation of why you've...
Alberto,
Those are beauties. Wouldn't even think about getting them wet. I'd shadow box them right away.
Several years ago I decided to get close to the small birds at the back yard feeder and try to get some really good close up shots when they were on the ground. Dressed up in total camo, pants,...
Waskeyc,
Your #4 pic probably best defines what I consider a "small" stream and pretty well demonstrates the size of my favorite mountain stream.
Dudley,
You are so lucky to have a fishing...
ScottP, Keep my cyanoacrylate/Crazy Glue/ Super Glue or whatever brand in the fridge too. Seems to do just fine for a pretty long time. Been using it for years and especially in the wintertime I use...
Couple of years ago went to a local "catch & release" section of a river and hooked up with a pretty big brown. Got it close enough to eyeball and then it broke me off. On goes another nymph that I...
If one can't just enjoy the fishing and everything that surrounds you while pursuing that then they are the goofy ones. I always carry my little waterproof Pentax digital camera and spend...
Len,
Brought back a lot of memories from the late 40's to late 50's for me. I have two life long friends starting in the 4th grade when I changed schools way back then. We're still friends...
Ralph,
Enjoy all your writings but this one really drove the laugh meter to the top! :D

That beautiful smile says it all.
Prayers and good thoughts to Denny.
Jerry,
Hooks arrived in great shape this past Saturday. What an awesome variety, quality and quantity of them you sent. I may never have to buy another hook forever at the rate I tie!:D
Folks...
Jerry,
That is great news. Nothing like being home instead of in a hospital especially far from home. A ggod nights sleep will do wonders after hearing all the hospital noise and bed pan clanging!...
Waskeyc,
That was a pretty harrowing account on the river. Glad to hear that you didn't get washed off that boulder. I'm about an hour and a half south of that area but have never fished up there...
Jerry,
Prayers on the way. And don't go too fast on those 70 mile trips and be careful. My wife is also facing some serious surgery in November and I'll be good as it's the out patient kind. Also...
cycler68,
Fished Joe's flies when I was using a spinning rod several years ago. When I had trouble with snags or water with a lot of weeds etc. used to cut the treble hook off and just fish them...
Lotech,
Liked your two step garden bench. I bought a similar bench several years back and it worked well for gardening etc., but, can't kneel on the worn out knees anymore. Have to use that old...
Jerry - will take a box of hooks too. Will send $$$ via wife's Paypal account. I don't have any money!!!;) Also will try and send you some photos featuring something caught on your dry flies if I can...
Betty,
Faith will see this beautiful child through her next challenge. Our prayers will guide you and all your family and sustain you now and in the future. And hope will always be the strength...
