I have a box of nymphs with a few streamers in the lid, a dry fly/soft hackle box, and a warm water box that contains streamers and poppers. I usually carry 2 of the 3. I won't need the warm water...
This actually varies from state to state. When I took driver's education and went to truck driving school and took defensive driving in Texas, there was no "slower traffic keep right" on Texas...

Yes, EdD, from what I understand your friend is correct. I think folks were trying to inject a bit of humor in an attempt to put this in some perspective. It was an obvious over-statement. As real...
Good. Tell her to lay on that pain pump, JC. No need to be shy. :lol:
Tell her the LTW and I are thinking about her.
Yeah, but they recalled MILLIONS of toys. Now...if ONE kid ate ALL of them... :lol:
I think it is a great accomplishment that we have forced the tycoons and moguls to quit polluting over here and move their polluting and pillaging of resources to the world's largest communist...
The Chinese just shot the dude in the head who was the head gov't officer for product safety in China. What else do you want them to do RIGHT NOW? I think they're being way more proactive about...

I think presentation is more important than pattern, but the ones I have had a lot of success with are:
#16 gold-ribbed hare's ear soft hackle nymph
#18 partridge and orange
#20 partridge hackle...
Thanks, Doug. Restoring a little balance is a good thing.
It's like litter, you pack it out!, out of respect for the stream.

Dshock, the folks around here...including many of the wildlife managers...will argue that it is more ecologically...
If you mend upstream until it's quartering downstream, of course most strikes (that you are aware of) will occur on the rise. But you are probably missing a LOT of takes. If I am fishing a soft...
In the Ozarks, this cleaning fish streamside and leaving the offal in the water is considered the RIGHT thing to do by most. It's an old cultural practice that goes back to the hillbilly days of...
I fished Bennett Springs last week. I must say it was a far superior experience to what I recall from the past. This was my first trip there to fish in about 6 years. Fish quality was MUCH better....
I have a pretty good understanding of international events and the cultural exchange that transpires...a firsthand understanding and appreciation. This weighs into my value judgment on competitive...
I can see Norman Maclean. Even though it was one novel, it was a very good one that had a distinct impact on fly fishing.
Redford? Does he even fly fish? I know he made "the movie" (out of...
Taken out of context like that, no way I'd run that in the local paper! However, my point (IN CONTEXT) is that if we don't change the way we train and/or pay our critical job skills people like...
Hate to hear it, Ron. But it seems to be going around. Here in the Ozarks, the indies seem to be holding their own...which is a bit ironic here in the shadow of Bass Pro Shops HQ and flagship store.
Yeah, I'm kind of waiting for he and Deanna to read it myself. I don't apologize for getting attacked by anyone. And not a SINGLE law enforcement officer has contacted me and expressed that I...
I'm glad you had a good time, so don't take my posts the wrong way.
Football and basketball and baseball and tennis and badminton are competitive sports. It's unavoidable...the nature of the...
I have a totally different definition of a great woman, Dshock. Defend her all you want to. It changes nothing. It's all here in black and white.
Betty, you have TWO words censored out by the...

There will be no apology forthcoming. I was personally attacked for stating an opinion in FAVOR of higher pay for law enforcement in a slightly "poetic" way, but it was totally GENERIC and not...
