  1. Yes, the non-slip loop is what I use, also if the hopper does land USD a quick twitch can make it right itself,
  2. Some of this has to do with line/leader twist caused by the shear size and weight of the hopper and also compounded by a dropper if you are using one, so tie your foam hopper on with a loop and a lot of the upside down thing will go away.
  3. Nothing should ever happen to the children, this old soldier does not normally pray, but I am now.
  4. San Antonio, Texas as a matter of fact!! they are everywhere in Texas, was in Dallas for the Rolling Stones show, and had a great chuckle over the fact there where more Toyota Pick Up Trucks in the AT&T stadium parking lot, than Ford, Chevy or Dodge..
  5. I'll try and find my other pictures of the fly..
  6. Size 6 Tiemco, great pattern all over the mountains, to right in town here.
  7. Still tying and fishing these!! what great fun!! http://
  8. as long as it is marked as "Bear Spray" not an issue.. also check with the Montana fisheries web site, for special measures , read that as "closures due to the damn heat" messing with their trout is something they take damn serious.. fwp.mt.gov Restrictions , Closures, and reopening's.
  9. I get home after six pm, and live in the south east. pm me for directions
  10. Check out the ECHO Base, 5wt rods, Fishtales has them, it has the right action you are looking for and is a good tool for drys!
  11. I bought a pair for Ladystrange and I , very good pair of sunglasses. The frame is plastic and very "bendy" as are the arms. I use them for driving and a spare to my other Maui Jims. I would not hesitate to buy another pair..
  12. http://www.sexyloops.com/2014.shtml?0620 The above is the story of my encounter with a young Grizzly on the Oldman River. I seem to have a knack for getting involved with bears!!! Some of you know I write for the Sexyloops web site. So Mods don't be pissed, I'm not selling or promoting just not rewriting the story, enjoy!
  13. Italian Spider Fly , and TTFU.
  14. Foam works.
  15. I wrote a small piece on mentors, and their memories, this was for Gord, Peter, and Fred, I have linked it here, if this is not acceptable to the Moderators then it is easy remove it. http://www.sexyloops.com/2013.shtml?1108 Mentors and Meaning.
  16. Thanks SD,honestly never figured I would be living in Calgary, always been a smaller town sort of person, but with the right company/friendship things can change... Really would like to reconnect with Cuttbow, Brent P again, he got sick and I ended up moving to calgary, so we lost touch.. Take care.
  17. Alright folks, I know I have not been on here much in the last couple of years, but have a small favour to ask, if anybody is in contact with Cuttbow, Brent Petiquin , then please let him know, I am looking for him, to reconnect and get fly fishing, Okkkk , looks like the board is alive and well, not much has changed, thats ok, trick is lots has changed for me, I now live in calgary, no longer have a wife, and still love fly fishing even more if that is possible. Still don't like hotspotting and still have not fly fished the Bow, I am going too, I may then become a convert to larger rivers remains to be seen, hope to catch up with some of you on the stream or river...
  18. At least I would only have to trip you , you're already seasoned for the imaginary griz in Alberta!!
  19. I thought you just fed the bears Brookies and not Pepper????? You really should not use the holder for bear spray for your BEER!!
  20. Why hide your face here but not on other boards or FB ??? Only asking out of curiosity?
  21. Nope ! Both patterns are out there, (on the internets) that is why I first posted this on the GFR board, I do not do recipes very well or at all.. Sorry.. you will have to check out other BB, both famous for the patterns.. one is dedicated to Fly tying the other is for Fly anglers on line!! better hurry before the short Bubba stone season is over.. cause the fish ignore these after July 3rd..
  22. HEHEHEHE Kieth is a kissing cousin of the FEB Stone.. and BBSS is a local legend..
  23. Otto lights are the way to go.. have two and they provide good full spectrum light..
  24. Somebody get a hold of Harps, damn Feds screwed his department over, so maybe this is could be his exit strategy..
  25. Pepper I never figured you for a Sexyloops reader.. good on yeah!! This will effect/affect all fly fishers and even them hardware types.. time we start letting the Capital G Government know not to mess with what makes Canada such a great place to live....
