fight at the playground at 3:30...

for ed...

it's sad to hear about the few ignorant pricks that do that stuff rather than the majority who do their share to leave it nicer than when they got there...funny how the more populated Alberta gets, the more problems there are...thank you booming economy...

trust me i wanna post some stuff up on it but with 12 days to go till my funeral..er, i mean wedding, as well as trying to get some fishing and camping in, as well as playing a hell of a lot of ball and work piling up, things are a tad bit busy...will post everything up some time in august/september if that is ok...

them bully shots made my nipples hard...lmao...

great idea on the coffee grinder idea... search google

funny how they haven't listed the NicSher stockings yet...

my birthday's in September if any of you are having trouble figuring out a gift idea............

on the bright side, at least it's starting to green up around there and not be a fire hazard...

sheite...guess the lakes are gonna be seeing me for a bit...

does anyone use these at all?...i bought a couple of packs and have tied up a couple dozen assorted flies for bulls and pike but truth be told, i've never fished a circle hook before...i know you're not supposed to set the hook on these but rather let the fish take it and swim away or continue your regular retrieve and that once hooked, most fish stay hooked as the hook embeds in the corner of the mouth but that's all i got...anyone with any experience or patterns???

how can that be a shock with Alberta's ever expanding population?

amen...end of sermon in my books...i agree there should be regulations/fees/licensing but to ban is ridiculous...i'd gladly pay a couple hundred a year for a year's worth of random camping...sadly, people think that banning RC will stop all the abuse...not likely...

personally, i hope that your meeting to have all random camping banned fails...i don't want to lose my canadian right to enjoy crown land as a result of a minority population that abuse the right...rather than trying to ban it, why not try to get more enforcement/licensing into effect...my two cents...

i hate you max...

that might fall into the heavy exertion category ...glad to hear you're doing good and recovering jim...take care...

atta boy neil...way to git-r-done....

everyone knows that alberta fly fishers are tough as nails...no way this can set you back jim...hope things get better soon for ya and that you can get back to your fishing asap...

after all the duking out the competitors did, it came down to two great patterns...after all the dust had settled, one pattern stood up above the other...congratulations to the 2008 King Of The Vise Champion : clyde ...to the victor goes the spoils...i will be in touch shortly...enjoy the prizes my friend...thanks again to all the tiers that made this possible and to entertain the masses throughout the winter...see you in the next tying season...

to all those that are curious...i'm in the process of getting calendars made with the proceeds to support the OM Streamwatch...if everything goes as planned, i'll have them ready by sept/oct sometime...i figure i sell a calendar for $5-$10 a piece, then even if i can get 20 to buy, it'll put a couple hundred into the program...

well, this is it boys and girls...the last poll you have to see until the fall...it's been an awesome year and i want to thank everyone who has voted, participated, and contributed comments throughout the course of the winter...now we get to focus on the fishing of these patterns...so without further ado, the final round of the 2008 King Of The Vise...voting for this round should be based on the requirements set forth : use of the two materials (which both did), realism (which both did), and creativity (which both did)...so have fun trying to choose a winner between these two...
