Hi Missy;
I had the good fortune to fish with both JC and Ladyfisher back in 2006, 7 & 8 at the Michigan & Idaho Fish - Ins. In 2006 he showed up in Michigan in black tie and tails and gave us casting lessons! Then in 2007 he was Super Man and gave us a repeat performance. Somewhere I have a photo of him giving my kid brother casting lessons on the Selway in Idaho! I considered him a friend. He never called me by my first name! It was always "Hey Hise"!!
To really understand what FAOL is about you have to be active, not only here on the "Board" but take part in Fish - Ins.
Back in 2006 at the first Michigan Fish - In I came to know many members and some became fast friends. One of the best is Kaboom1 (aka Brad Sherick). He and I have spent many a great day on trout streams from Michigan to Tennessee and all the way to Idaho and back! The Driftless area is another story!!
So, welcome to the home of some great future friends!!
Tight Lines!
