  1. I LOVED the McDLT. Hot side Hot and the Cold side Cold. Worst I've ever had was a 20pc McNuggets, caramel sundae, fries and a large coke. mmmmmmmm.....mcnuggets......
  2. Here's another quick one...... Three little old ladies are sitting at a bus stop waiting for the next bus to arrive when suddenly a man in a long, dark trench coat jumps out from the bushes and flashes them. Well, they were so startled that the first lady had a stroke, the second one also had a stroke, but the third one wasn't fast enough.
  3. The thing about weather forcasting is that it's right enough to not ignore it, but wrong often enough to not rely on it.
  4. LOL That's a gooder.

    Goodbye

    Sorry for your loss, Gary. My thoughts go to you and your family in this time of sorrow.
  6. I have worn it many times while fishing in the cold. It is really adjustible to fit over layers. I stayed warm, while I still had easy access to my gear. You'd love the Equinox then. The style alone allows for it to not get in the way during casting, landing, anything. I love the way you store all your flys, tippet, leaders all in the front pack. It's a great set up.
  7. The game never should have gone to OT in the first place. Koivu's goal was clearly off his glove. That pissed me off.
  8. Since last year was my first year fly fishing, I wanted to get something a little different than the traditional vest. I did a lot of looking around and really liked the look of the William Joseph stuff. Tried on a few, and ended up with the Equinox. I love it. Plenty of space for all the files that I would need for the day, as well as tools, Entomology Book, spare fly boxes. I gerry rigged a get up for my net. I love the flexibility of it, and there is still room to spare. Couldn't be happier with my decision.
  9. I'll take Harvey the Hound at this point. ABM (Anyone But MacT)
  10. Now that's how you do it.....wait......where's the beer cooler?????
  11. The Bass Pro site has a slide show of some of the pics of the new Calgary Store. Looks pretty cool. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s...&storeID=75 Plus, article below.....
  12. Clearly because MacT is the best coach in the NHL......why do you ask?
  13. STUPID GODDAMN WORKING ON SATURDAYS!!!! :$*%&: That and I'll be working at the Car Show too. Hello 13 hour day.......
  14. Broduer lost pretty big on Saturday 7-2 to the Isles. He's gonna be pissed come Tuesday.
  15. I don't get it. Maybe it's because I am still fairly new. Not only to the board, but to the sport as well. But I have noticed something, not just from this thread, but from many others as well. Why all the in-fighting and childish behaviour? And from grown men no less? Where are we? Kindergarten? Now, I'm no Saint, I can tell you that much, but for cryin out loud guys grow up. It's a message board. About FISHING. Aren't we, as fly fishers, somewhat elitist as it is when it comes to our chosen sport. Be it a hobby, or a profession, it's still just a cool way to chill and enjoy yourself, and hopefully the company of some really cool people. But, for some reason, we have to be elitist on HOW we fly fish. First it was how we fish, as in fly fishing, is more "pure" or "better" than chucking bait. Some of you even pin anyone who owns a spin rod as a "bait chucker" or even a poacher, simply because they choose to fish a different way than you do. All I ask is, who really cares? Who decides whose way is a better way to fish? Me? You? I just fish because I like to. And I love it. Why should my way of single hand casting be any less effective or enjoyable than using a double hand, or spey rod? Who is to say that using a Spey is in anyway inferior to a single hand? Or better? You fish your way, I'll fish mine. I am sure we will both have a great time, and maybe get into some big fish. Likely, you'll get into more fish than I will because I am still learning, but hey, I'm learning. One day, I will catch more fish than you. But it won't be because I am using a single hand rod or a spey rod. It will be because I just had "one of those days". You know the ones. Where the fish are biting everything you throw at it, dry, nymph, streamer, don't matter the fish are killin' it! Who cares if it's cast out on a single hand, or a spey? Either way. Just fish because you love it. Who cares how you do it. My two bits. Take it however you want.
  16. He's probably out fishin.... Happy Birthday man!
  17. Ok boys, another "big", "must win" game against the Laughs tonight. PLEASE, PLEASE put in a better effort than that joke you pulled against the Senators. Please.
  18. I never thought about using my new 3wt for nymphing on the bow. Next time out, I'll give her a shot. I've been dying to use it since I got it.
  19. Who's the lucky bastard in the house?
  20. Ditto on that. I'd like to give that one a try myself. Looks like a fun time was had by all. Thanks for the pics.
  21. No problem. I'll be using that link for all the PPV's from now on.
