Ive been lurking here for awhile and enjoying the board. Figured I’d put on my chest waders and jump in. Grew up in CO and started fly fishing in my teens, loved fishing the streams and rivers in the Rockies. Unfortunately no mountains and streams close to me now so most of my fishing is float tubing the local lakes. As long as I’m having fun and catching some fish in the process, thats all that matters. I look forward to making your acquaintances and joining in on the fun. On a side note I remember one person here that said he use to work for the Denver Post. My dad worked there for a lot of years and I’m wondering if you knew each other. If you happen to read this or if someone else knows who I’m referring to please let me know. Good drifs!

Glad that you decided to join us offically. There are lots of good people and good information to be found here. Be sure to let us hear from you freguently. Your thoughts, opinions, suggestions and questions are always welcome. 8T
You had better learn to be a happy camper. You only get one try at this campground and it’s a real short camping season.
Thanks 8t, I appreciate the welcome. Youre right there is a lot of good people here and lots of good info. I see that I mispelled lurker in the heading line, shows that my typing sucks. Oh well, thankfully my fishing is usually better than my typing. Terry
Welcome fishflyer. Good to have you here.
Do you see the little icon above each post that has a pad and pencil. You can click on that and edit out all the nasty stuff that you want to change. Do-overs are great, aren’t they? Especially flyfishing do-overs.
Welcome! I’m from down by the Wichita area. If you’re ever down my way, get in touch. We can go chase some of the stocked trout down here. There is a fly fishing only area that has been fairly challenging so far this year.
That might have been me, FishFlyer. I was a Postie from 1970 to 1974 and did a regular feature for the paper called Country Roads, typically a full picture page with stories I wrote from around the state of Colorado, northern NM and southern WYO. Drop a name here or by e-mail. JGW
ps, welcome to FAOL. Best virtual fly shop in the business.

Thanks all for the warm welcome. Lew I tried to edit my spelling but didnt see a way to redo the headline without deleting it. Maybe I missed something. Ol blue, thanks for the invite, Topeka area here and with a bad back I dont get around much. Fortunatley they stock trout during the cooler months in the local lake here, plus all the warm water species that abound. Im getting pretty good at catching wipers and channel cats on flies. JGW, I’ll send you an email. Had I seen your articles I probably would of read them. At that time in my life about the only thing I read in the newspaper was the sports and comics. How about I make the coffee and let some of the other new guys chop the wood.
