5 minutes to saltwater....5 HOURS to the trouts
Good for you.....congrats. I'll be smoke free for 18 yrs this coming July. Just threw a pack of butts in the trash and never looked back...cold turkey. i swear i was going thru withdrawl...
Absolutely wonderful...great way to start off the season. Good for you John
My lousy cancer prevented me from wetting a line at all in 2011. Now that Sloan-Kettering is in charge, things are looking up a little. I don't know what Hurricane Irene did to me beloved Ausable...
Hi Deanna,
Happy birthday....it's great that you and i share the same birthday, though I'm sure I was born WAY before you. Happy Birthday.

Heinrich,
Happy Birthday my friend.....sorry I'm late with the wishes. Hope all is well.

Finally got my power and cable back. Not a lot of damage here. Some branches down, no flooding (thank The Lord) and just a little wind damage. People up in the Catskills fared much worse. The...
I'm on Long Island, only 16 miles or so from Manhattan as the crow flies. Looks like I'm going to be at ground zero sometimes early tomorrow morning. The eye of this monster is supposed to be real...
Here's to my Uncle Marty.....47th Infantry Regiment, 9th Infantry Division, wounded later in the war in the Hurtgen Forest. Thanks for everything your generation did. Say hi to dad who never made it...
No martinis for me. I prefer some Pappy Van Winkles bourbon over 1 ice cube....that's it, only 1. If that's not readily available, Basil Haydens or Woodford Reserve will do. Oh, did I tell you, I...
I also have to agree with the Stimulator. I prefer either orange or yellow. It can be used in slow water, white water, and I find it is deadly fished in pocket water. Interesting concept is using it...
83% here too!!! We had a Roadmaster...sure wish I had it now.
Well, I'm surely not going to be making the 300+ mile trip to the Ausable in the Adirondacks 7 or 8 times like I usually do. I get 16 mpg on the truck with a tail wind on the highway...in those...
Prayers to all involved. It is not easy for a parent to bury a child. I know this from experience. My little Amanda lived for 4-1/2 months before she passed due to having been born with an extra...
Prayers for Bill. I had triple by-pass surgery 17 yrs ago, and I was back fishing 5 weeks after I came home. Just make sure he listens to his doctors. Best of luck.

My Uncle Rudy used to do the same thing. He lived on the Schoharie just west of Hunter, and he used to walk the river, come up behind a rock, put his hands down and more often that not, came up with...

My daughter was born at 11:40 AM that day....2 minutes after the disaster. My mom still says she replaced one of the astronauts. RIP crew of Challenger.
I'm confused. What is the difference between switch and spey? I don't have a clue but I do know they both involve 2 handed casting. I just received the Orvis and Cabelas catalogs this week :grin:...
Well, I went to the orthopedists this morning. He removed the splint and took more pictures. He said it looks fine. After some minor re-positioning (and not so minor pain) he applied the fiberglass...
You sure they're not referring to something "kinky"....using the word nymph?? Just saying, that's all :)
As the titles states, I slipped on the ice during our little NY blizzard, and broke my right wrist. 57 yrs old and this is the first cast I've ever worn. Worst of all, I'm right-handed. (i'm typing...
Happy Birthday Deanna!!!! How did I get so lucky to share a birthday with you...except your a whole lot younger!!! Happy Birthday.
Ken
Thanks a ton.....and today is also Ladyfisher's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEANNA!!!!! Thanks again!

Quit 16 yrs ago....after triple by-pass heart surgery at the age of 40.Went thru nicotine withdrawl after the surgery in while in the ICU. Kind of made it real easy to quit. Haven't even had an urge...
