  1. 4 fly boxes with about 300 to 400 flies amongst them. but about 1000 more in the truck. I am usually down south old man and crow area in the summer. but this year my goal is to work out my 4 wt more and visit mostly small water and dry flies. we will see how that goes as the summer progresses.

  6. Hear ya Rick did that 2 weeks ago, not as bad though only about 1200 flies, but still in need of a few patterns that are low or missing. my GF says i need a 12 step program of some sort. and the only reason I ain't on Hoarders is because flies are so small.

  12. A man is cupping his hands to scoop water to drink from a Scottish Highland lake when a gamekeeper spots him and shouts: “Dinnae drink the waater! Et’s full of coo’s shite and piss!” The man replies: “Sorry, I’m from England. Could you repeat that in English, please?” The keeper says: “I’m sorry, I said use two hands – you’ll spill less that way.” One day God was looking for Adam and Eve, but couldn't find them. Later in the day, God saw Adam and asked where he and Eve were earlier. Adam said: "This morning Eve and I made love for the first time." God said: "Adam, you have sinned. I knew this would happen. Where is Eve now?" Adam replied: "She's down at the river, washing herself out." "Damn," God replied: "I’ll never get that smell out of the fish." A mother cleaning her son’s room finds an S&M magazine under the bed. Upset, she shows her husband.“What do you think we should do?” she asks. “I’m not sure," the father replies: “But we certainly shouldn’t spank him.”
  13. good topic aside from the Bullshit. orange stimie elk and CDC hot butt caddis (own creation slammed cutties on them this year) Adams Elk hair ant Royal Wulff
  14. True, they are a powerful, intelligent dog. that require a powerful, intelligent trainer/owner. but to say that they were bred to kill is wrong you can not breed to kill you can breed to to be effeicent at what you do they are strong, intelligent loyal dogs, dominant dogs, and have been selectivly bred to be that way. so as an owner you have to be the alpha to a very dominant dog and not many people have the time and patience to be that. now as for Mastifs it is not a breed it is a class that includes Newf's, st.bernards, bernese mountaindogs, bull dogs, danes, caine corso, and on and on. and depaending on that breed you get the bred characteristics. . . . . on the same note no dog should be at an off leash unless the owner has control in any situation. you call the dog should come. if not keep the leash on you don't have control.
  15. on the point of Pitties, Never owned one, but a friend of mine has three, they are the 3 of the best trained dogs I have ever met. pitties are smart, loyal, athletic animals. there undoing is the fact that most people buy them for the wrong reasons, and the wrong people buy them. to train a dog as smart as a pitpull, you have to be an strong willed, consistant trainer. it is not a dog for the type of person who is compensating. me I am a retriever or heeler type personally.

  16. tend to agree, it was they're bad, if fishing anywhere along the paths expect your run to get screwed once in a while by something. if you want dog/everything else free water then leave the city. but now I am dieing to find out what did you/didn't you do
  17. Hear ya, Disgusting how I can go out with 3 beers in my pack and come back with a 24 of empties. just wish I could work it the other way. Edit "sorry for the side track"
  18. The great thing about that summer survival pack Ray is the longer your out the lighter it gets.
  19. tried a mouse on the Old Man this weekend and got a wicked take 1/2 the 30" bull out of the water on the take only to have him break off after a 10min fight.
  20. Super glue, should be in every kit if you out in the bush for an extended period. stings like hell but will seal a wound that should be stitched in a pinch.
  21. Sorry folks going to have to drop out work is just crazy, no time
  22. Don't want a drought but a little sun would be nice
  23. Once the rivers let up and truck is on the road, let me know I'm always happy to take people out. just gotta work around work schedule and vistation with my daughter.
  24. one Question what the hell is the difference between 1 truck and 15 or what ever. you still can only drive on at a time. am i a jerk because at one point I had 4 vehicles just for me (442, S10, honda intuder, Nova SS) each had it's purpose and i could only drive one at a time. this always made me wonder the argument of having too many cars is means your not ECO enough. See I wasn't eco because 3 of the 4 were big Gas guzzling monster engines. not because I had too many of them
