John, you will be missed. Your reports have been excellent and it has been a pleasure to go along on this forum as well as with you a few times in person. I know Buzz will miss you also. Good luck and I hope we can stay in touch. It sounds like my boys will be over to help with the move.

Best wishes,

Kelly.

Take care John and like BAMBOO, this thread has become a beautiful classic!

Two words John. ROCK CREEK.

John, I am sad to see this thread end. I have followed your adventures almost daily. I am sure that when you get resettled, you will find endless new places to fish and write about. Places you will love.

Best of luck with the move.

Maybe I will get lucky and run into you sometime on the Bitter root or Clark's Fork.

Hi John,

Thanks for taking the time to share these past few years with us all here. I have really enjoyed your reports over the past few years. I'm sure things will all sort themselves out, and when they do it will seem quicker looking back than it does now looking ahead. And just so you know, I've been so impressed with your reports that I've ordered a 7'6" bamboo rod (got a recommendation from Fish Goddess on one, and well, I'm looking forward to seeing it when I get to Nova Scotia in a couple weeks). Take care.

Thanks John, for sharing your experiences and for some inspirations along the way.

And now it's only 719 miles.

Cheers,

I'm glad I got to fish with you, John, before your move. I bet you'll find places to show us in the Missoula area before you know it.
