speaking of Bob, that reminds me of a joke... a man and his wife were celebrating their 25th wedding anniverasary, and the wife wanted to get him the ultimate present...so she thought and thought, and finally hit upon his lifelong passion, bluesman BB King...her husband loved BB King...he had BB socks, BB suits, BB hats, and even a guitar named "Lucille"...so she decided what to get him - she would get a B tatooed on each buttock...she then went to the tattoo parlor, and told the guy what she wanted, the B on each buttcheek...the tattoo artist thought it was the most beautiful thing he had ever heard of, and he was inspired...he did the best work of his life, never to be equaled again...later that night at dinner, they exchanged gifts...the husband got her a lovely gold ring, and when it was her turn, she said "Well, I was going to show it to you later, but I can't wait."...then she bent over as far as she could and lifted up her skirt...her husband replies, "It's lovely work dear, but who's BOB?"

rick i am the king of lameass jokes...i just don't like to tell them cuz then i get the groans...that's why i sit back and watch birchy instead...

thank you SD...my sentiments exactly on the good deeds...merry christmas to you as well as all the board members and all your families...

LMFAO ...i never thought clive could get down like that (and i'm not talking about his weight loss or his breasts)...

i should mention to the new tyers that have been entering...NO PREVIOUSLY TIED FLIES ON ANY CONTEST...sorry guys but i gotta keep it fair somehow ...

it is true rick...just don't let max fish them...

i have my moments chris...nowhere near as bad as SOME people though...

it seems like the last couple of contests, there have been quite a few steelie patterns that people have been wanting to post...thus, i have come up with a solution for everyone to flaunt their stuff and show off their fancy flies...STEELHEAD/SALMON PATTERNS...flies posted with a pic and recipe by 9:00 PM Sunday, December 23 with the normal poll to follow... some guidelines for those entering: 1) the first 20 entered get in the poll...anything after is just for show... 2) don't make it too complicated...with Christmas around the corner, i doubt many people have 6 hours to kill on one fly (unless you want to... 3) this is the one contest of the year where voting should be based on LOOKS RATHER THAN FUNCTIONALITY...keep the fly neat... 4) have fun and enjoy the entries...

it's funny how you rolled up with that nickname right about the time i unveiled Big Earl....jealousy perhaps???.......

ya i'm sure that was what came out of your mouth...

WHATEVER SID...and you forgot your other nicknames for me (chuck norris and van damme)....geez...make up your mind already...

why not just krazy glue a bunch of them before hand or else a thin strip of dubbing?

ask dave what the store name is cuz i can't remember, but they have an awesome marinated/smoked bull trout that's great on it's own or in chowders...

thank you to all who participated in this contest and making it such a creative experience...fantastic turnout of patterns...

*NOTE* i had to add the other 3 flies in my second post as space limits me to posting 10 pics at once... Weedy1 Lundvike cheeler SanJuanWorm clyde ggp Din 126barnes kritofr Badger

13 in...7 spots still open for any last minute patterns...

basically, the wing can be almost anything you want (after all it is a bastardized version right)...anyways, i usually use deer, elk, calftail, antron, hackle tips, or (in a pinch) dog hair stacked....

so you gotta have shaw-net for that to work (not basic cable)...damn...

what are all these "hoops" you speak of?

the thing that worries me about this post brent is that you took the time to track down a pic of a steroid monkey all greased up in a speedo thong...

hey kritofr and cheeler...can i get the recipes from you guys?...thanx boys...

like i said...Sunday, December 16th by 9PM (or the first 20 entries at this pace )...
