Looks good...

Thanks. Just finished putting her in the garage.

Well in case people are wondering, I bought a used Hyde Pro this afternoon. It's in great shape hardly ever been used. The guy had to sell it because of a medical issue. Pick it to tomorow. Let the good times roll!!!! I'd love to take her for a spin, but I think I'll have to wait a couple of more weeks. Lousie isn't taking calls yet. Seems she is down South on vacation and has the spare key for my truck.

I've always wondered what dophin tastes like. Maybe a red wine sauce would work...

Only 251 to go...

Quote from Shan of the Dead in which the a pointless conversation is made as to whether dogs are capable of looking up...

Exactly my point. This thread is wasting everyone time...

Can dogs look up?

One more thing I say this thread should be stricken from the site.

I for one refuse to support such a silly endevor as trying to break 1000 posts. You won't see me posting anything so pointless.

You're bringing me down... Weedy where are you???

Good point. Screw it... I'll buy it tomorow, I wonder if my wife will notice it the garage? May be a tarp cover will fool her?

Your a mad man Max! I think you fish more than I do. Nice pics...

For the past 6 months I've been worried as hell about lossing my job, I work for Nova and haven't spent a red cent. However yesterday I started feeling rather optomistic and bought a second Islander reel I've been thinking about. If things continue to look good next spring I'm buying the drift boat (Hyde aluminuim) that I've been thinking about for a few years. My question is how does everyone else feel? Is is too ealry to come out of the shell yet?

I believe peeneye sound correct. My secrataries son had it done. The weird part is he told his mother...

Just came to understand what a Pr. Albert was. Oooch! Why would anyone even think about doing that....I'd rather put a needle in my eye.

Tough time to open a new fly shop. Does anyone have the address?

I was there today as well. Agree the displays are incredible. A few good deals. Unfortunately, I was disappointed in the fly section. Prices are high, sellection is poor.

Nice one. I thought about fishing this morning but the snow put me off. I was out yesterday morning and saw the water was getting a bit muddy. Only put one small brown in the net.

I think I'll have veg. soup tonight...

If you were using Louise Shotton it was $50 last year. By the way, I've been using Louise regularly for a number of years now, with no issues yet. I've finally convinced a couple of my friends to get pontoon boats so I'm hoping this year that I can do our own shuttlling and save some cash.

I agree it has more to do with pride and craftmenship than simply catching fish. Beside I enjoy tying. However, in addition to my premuim flies, I do tie a fair number of SJWs, and other standard go-to flies that keeps my box full.

On my way through Chicago airport last year I grabbed a burger that was cold and bloodyin the middle. Discusting....

Why so harsh? The man know his stuff and there is nothing wrong with being a guide. I've been thinking of it myself after I retire...

I do love my Islander. Considering adding another to the collection...
