  1. I took a look at some of his streamers. Going to tie a few Dungeons and Peanuts, as well as Boobies. All great looking flies, now to see how they turn out as I am just beginning.
  2. All the best for your 65th
  3. My biggest fish are on streamers, but yes patience, and keep at it. Some days I just stay on streamers all day. Although I usually use 8 lb leader, so a little more feedback from FFC folk on what they go with would be nice leader wise. Also i usually go with about 4 to 5 feet. Love it.
  4. Loomis would be a great option, if allowed.
  5. You can always slow down. I don't go more than 8 to 10 km/hr over, and thats usually on the hwy, sometimes in the city. Cops and photo radar usually leave you alone at that pace.I trust my driving and nobody else. Otherwise Viper is pretty good. Good Luck
  6. When I used to spin all I bought was shimano, and they are still good for the friends and family I take out that don't fly.Decent of Orvis to allow that. 50 Rods, AMAZING, but if I recall, you also collect Bamboo, don't you.
  7. You must be getting yours in the USA
  8. Congrats, apparel is nice, or sell it for $800. and party. Lol
  9. I noticed, just chuckled to myself.
  10. My life was saved in a ford 1 ton 4x4 when I was smoked by a semi at 90 km/hour. I currently own a 1/2 ton lariat 4x4 and still like women, PL
  11. Congrats to the athletes of the world, and a big tip of the hat to the Canuck Athletes. Way to go Mens and Womens Hockey. Another great olympics. Now back to hockey without the NHLers.
  12. Don't eat the fish out of eagle.
  13. Not really, Other lakes are prob 1 1/2 at least except Clear. about 1 hr south
  14. Monster Pike, White Fish, and I have been told some Walleye. I have released several 15 to 20 lb Pike. Do the auger and take a hibachi and have fun. I'd say it is about 1 1/2 hours to 2.
  15. If it is too cold for the line and guides of the rod, (ice), maybe bring the auger and go to Badger.
  16. Howdy, to you fishers who can cook, I want to play with some bone in center cut beef shanks. As much as the slow cookers and dutch ovens are great, I want to play with the BBQ and some smoke. Being the shank I would think it will need breaking the tissue down with a beef stock boil for a while, with the veggies and herbs, then I thought of indirect heat low and long on the BBQ with maybe a bit of smoke. Any recipe or feedback is welcome. Thx
  17. IMHO, Based on seeing the time and effort you put in, not to mention the great quality, ask $4000. and take $3000..Maybe with a cheap anchor system. I have seen other new home builds for $3000 and $4000. There goes your bartering power for an FFC member. Just a little input. LOL Nice boat.
  18. And be aware of floating ice slabs, they creep up quietly.
  19. Thought I would ask, when I fish the Fraser slightly inland I use my regular 8 or 10 weight rod. The water there is quite brackish, sp?, I always rinse it off after the the day. If I was to go on a salt water fishing trip, I would just use my rod and find a salt capable reel. Or should a guy be looking at fly rods designed and sold for salt?? The wtb salt rod and reels in trading post motivated this.
  20. Beautiful scenes, and wonderful looking dog. They are so much a part of the family.I miss mine big time. We will get one or two soon, to add to our home and travel adventures.
  21. He's trying to provoke vociferous fulminations from the easily guiled.. LIKE !!!!
