  1. I have also been SPINNING a lot on the vice the past few evenings. Bow River buggers, and tonite I start some hoppers ( whitlock style). The spinning hair is messy I tell ya. But, they are great flies. Got about 200 done this winter of various patterns so another 100 would be a good goal.
  2. Now that really sucks!! I always said I hate a thief. Sorry to hear your news. If these guys are repeat offenders I certainly hope they throw the book at em. But, alas, this is Canada (great hockey programs) and they will probably get a slap on the wrist! Keep us updated on the ass----s who did this.
  3. Ah come on Harry, you and I both know Capers know nothing about booze!!!!!!! Typed as I sip on a cold Keith's.
  4. Hey Bloom The 2 new bottles are: Glenfiddich 15 year Glenlivit 15 year The first bottle I personally bought was a year ago and it is 12 year Glenlivit and I can'y say I aquired a taste for this STUFF yet. Perhaps, a few of the occasions I poured one I had a few too many of the wobbly pops prior to savor and enjoy. Out of the 2 new bottles, which one do you all recommend I crack first being an amatuer at this game?
  5. Hey Bloom. Got a few nice bottles from Santa. May have to take one alonng for the next elk/Wigwam trip. I still need to have a few Keith's for back up.
  6. Well I can cross this place off the list after the snake info. Scared to death!!!
  7. That last pic is great.
  8. Nice gift. First class of Jim. Merry Christmas all. Rob Walker
  9. I have owned 5 SA GPX and they are all great. Looking at a Sharkskin 5 wt floater myself.
  10. Thanks all.
  11. Anyone know if there are any sales on at any of the ff stores in Calgary?
  12. Donnie Baseball Mattingly Evander The Real Deal Holyfield Dave Charlie Manson Tommy Hitman Hearns just a quick few to add
  13. Lots of good reels mentioned. My first good reel I bought was a ROSS Cimmaron about 7 years ago. Have another spool and line for this system and I would highly endorse Ross in the $200 range. I now also have 2 GALVAN reels and I put them high on the list. Drag is smoother on the Galvans but they are more $$$. Paid around 340 for an OB-5 5 years ago and bought a Torque on ebay for 230.00 last year for my 4 wt. Love it. Service with Lou galvan ( owner) has been exceptional! These reels are very good and with the Canadian Dollar you could get a good deal. I would buy another tomorrow if I needed it! Give them a look. Westwinds carries them. Good Luck
  14. That is a dandy!!!!!
  15. That was awesome! signed Rob Skywalker
  16. Piggy bank, top drawer.... oh.... to many details...
  17. I also have had a lot more good ones than bad!
  18. Fix your own. Easy! Most shops cary a generic kit with the adhesive for 20-25 bucks. My advice, let the glue set a while as recommended and then attach the felts. I have done this years ago before owning aquastealth Simms and it worked fine. Good luck.
  19. Dave 1 t-shirt 2xl 1 toque thanks rob walker
  20. If you are going to bug someone, I think you got the right guy. I very much enjoyed all his works and own them all.
  21. Being a habs fan I can say I am not biased. Favorite recent player is a LEAF ( Wendel). My opinion of the greatest ever is a BRUIN (Bobby Orr).
  22. It is good being a HABS fan these days although over the past week they showed inconsistency. Always look forward to Leafs vs. Habs. I will say this, Sundin is an awesome force everrtime I watch him. Not bad considering I hate Leafs!
  23. Good points made and I agree when it is done tastefully!
  24. Total of 8. A few years in junior high, many years ago. Since I moved out West 10 years ago and discovered the gems ( bow, crow, etc. ) I have another 6 good years in. Great pastime in winter.
  25. Thanks Lundvike and Diesel. Tube is in and I am picking up tonite. Will go with the HDMI included in the PVR for the time being. Later, might take your advice and try the shop you mentioned. Ales are good for saturday hockey!!! Cheers
