TT,
Im glad to hear you had good luck. All the doves must be up in your neck of the woods. Me and 4 friends went out on Monday and only saw 4 birds, none within shooting range.

I just saw my private messages, from members wishing me a happy birthday ,from the beginning of the month. Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes and sorry that I am just now bringing it up. ...
Im going dove hunting on labor day, when i finally have a day off. This isnt supposed to be a great year for them, but a bad day hunting beats a good day working. The conservation land Im hunting...
iceman, i forgot we were so close. I fish smithville lake often, although most is for catfish, I would like to find the crapie and blugills on my flyrod.

I just spent the last 2 days trying to get rid of a fake antivirus called Antimalware doctor that somehow made its way to my computer. It looks like a legit software, but trust me it isnt. It will...
Yea, its never the parents' fault for raising punk kids in the first place. We always had plenty to do as kids, but the younger generation tore it all up then complained that there was nothing to do....
There are many flies I want to tie and I have a couple hundred hooks, mostly various size 10's, 12, and some 14's. Most of my fishing is warm water lakes and ponds for crappie and bluegill. So I need...
I usually wont bid on an item until the last minute or two. A lot of people do this and you will notice the price jumps up real fast at the end. If it is an expensive item, it gives the seller no...

Thats what I would have done.
They say that women are better at casting fly rods than men. Too bad she will never be a woman, always my little girl. She is still a little young, but if she shows interest I will build her her very...
My daughter couldn't wait any longer and just had to go fishing so i took her to this little pond after dinner. I helped her for a couple of minutes then she wanted to do it all by herself. She did...
None of the material i used was made for fly tying actually. I picked up stuff at hobby lobby while shopping for birthday decorations for my daughter.

2 years ago today I was blessed with the birth of my first child. She continues to amaze me every day. She sits by myside when we go fishing and gets very excited when I catch a fish. Today I gave...
I never had the opportunity to speak with him, but I have read many good words about him. He must have been a great man.

Very Nice. Sounds like a great trip! Thanks for posting all the pics, really makes it seem real. And congrats on the baby!

Ugly Sticks are good gear, I have expensive rods and cheap rods, and and ugly stick, I probably fish the ugly stick as much as my high dollar ultra light spinning rod.

It depends on the water. If its easy wading and hot out, i might go barefoot with just shorts and a shirt. I have a pair of waders but i have never used them. i dont own wading boots, but I should...
