    Default No Catch And Release (JUST THIS ONCE!)

    Hey folks! Just wanted to let you know that I'm not going to catch and release just this one time...

    Our daughter Tess was born Sunday night.

    And while at 8lbs 5 ozs she did'nt break any state records, I am going to apply for a trophy certificate - not for me but for my wife!




    Hope all is well with everyone!
    Thank God for my wife, the midge nymph and those hapless Iowa Hawkeyes!

    Jim,

    Great news and congratulations! I'm delighted for both you and your wife. Even though this means your fishing at BV will be more challenging and less frequent, I do expect you to have a current photo the next time our path cross.

    Again best wishes to you and mom. By the way, got a name yet?

    Should have read the post more carfully! Tess is a great name!

    It's almost funny but when my son was born (23 1/2 years ago now), I had the exact same thoughts about this one being a keeper !!!!! I guess being fly fishermen, we just can't help relating important events in our lives back to our passion for fishing!!!

    Tess sure does look like her Dad! Congratulations!!!!

    As in the Army, I have never had a bad day Fly fishing, some damn uncomfortable days but never a bad one!
    Everyone must believe in something and I believe in Fly Fishing and Fly Tying and believe I will

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.
