X2, and your closer to Montana by 2 hours....

Gettin' worried there ggp...gettin' worried. Glad your back! Great tie!!

Great ties NoSlack, your Iphone captures them quite well actually!

I had a great time, went all 3 days. I wish I could have bought a weekend pass! I was happy to get free back issues of FF on each day. Was great to watch the casting demos by Jim, Gary Borger, etc. Talked to all the vendors and also met great folks from the H&H Club, FFC. Fly Tying? Seemed every 2nd or 3rd booth had a vice set up and a capable tyer sitting behind it, willing to share skills, and advise. Sat in on some of the seminars too. It was a great show and I made the most of it.

I am with ADT, have been since 1994. 36 dollars a month. That's for multiple internal motion loops and loops on all outside doors. Alarm Force is slightly less, around 29-30 for the same coverage, along with their voice connect to the alarm box. Both have optional connects to the owners smart phone. I saw some external motion sensor lights at Costco recently. They have a internal camera and when the light is motiom activated, they take a picture. You can pull the card and look at the stored pictures whenever you want. 99 dollars, I think might might be for a set of two? Would be just the thing for your garage to start with perhaps..... The only problem with self monitering is when your a ways away.....but if your worried about the garage, a non monitered (loud) audible alarm might scare the slime away.

I had a great time today. Met many great FFC people, pokerfish, Adrienne, and Paula among them. Saw FlyTyer in the distance, I'll catch up with him tomorrow. Enjoyed the free seminars very much, Jim McLennan's fly casting, April's double haul tips, etc etc. Lot's of gear, nice folks, and watching the non-stop casting, tying and friendship made it a very worthwhile day!

Thanks for sharing A, stunning photography once again.

Thanks for your info, Taco, certainly food for thought. For me, we were one of the first to get Telus Optik TV a few years ago. My wife signed us on, she got a 'great deal'. However, Optik had many, many problems in the begining, and still is not perfect to this day. I am not going to go on and on about what happened over the years, but we were over billed many times for services we did not use, had outages lasting days, were promised many things that never happened. A different story from each rep we would call, hours on the phone trying to sort out over billing, etc etc. Telus's land lines and internet service is 100%. Mobility is fine as any of them. TV however......

They have a full rod building section, it's on the wall directly behind the fly rod display racks.....

Once my Telus contracts run out, it will be over to Shaw. Telus only cares about you until you become their customer....

Live steam goes in, dead steam goes out.....

Looks awesome! Did you use epoxy on the wingcase? Or clear lacquer? Glossed perfect...

Great stuff peetso, your thoughts and commentary matches your pictures perfectly. Well done, can't wait for more next season.

Thanks ggp, another awesome tie. Calender shot......I think June? My new wallpaper if you don't mind. .....

Pretty inspiring ties both Michell0724 and pokerfish! Thanks for sharing, both of you! Ok ggp.....I am ready

Did they now!? Hmmmm will have to check this out. Really like the DD, just not in the silver. Thanks RunnyD!

ggp, really amazing work. Well photographed and your background matches the flies perfectly. Thanks for sharing and keep them coming please! Sure makes a cold winter day better seeing them.

Some stunning ties and great photgraphy going on here. Awesome work, GGP, Paula, Garhan and Nathaniel!

Awesome pics Peetso, thanks for sharing! The Inn looks mighty cozy truth be told, and the supper table tasty. Who needs room service anyway with nearby attractions such as those!

Great picture SD, thanks and same to you, the Mods, and all forum members!

Stunning shot, look at those colors!

I got my unread 1976 vintage 6th Edition of 'Trout' on Ebay for $6.00 a few months ago. Before doing that, I looked in the local shops, as there is quite a recent reprint from 2000. I could not find one locally at that time. My '76 edition has all the artwork of the wet flies that appeared in earlier editions, and I am sure some of the pages of artwork is from the original 1938 edition. The artwork, cutting edge and astounding at the time, is not quite as clear and concise what as we are used to today. I have not seen the fly artwork in the most recent 2000 Edition, so I cannot comment. Regardless, it is a fabulous book and a great read. Ray Bergman's research and experience, starting as a young fly fisherman during WW1, and progressing to the mid 1930's and beyond, is still valid today. Along with Joe Brooks 'Trout Fishing' from 1972, this book never fails to astound me. Ray Bergman, who died in 1967, was years ahead of his time. Read it now in 2012, and you can see how far!

Congrats on the new edition to your family! Enjoy these days...they will fly by before you know it.

Gobsmacked Adrienne.........can't really find the words. Beyond amazing, all of them. Please post more and thanks for sharing!! (I think the black bin is still sitting out front the house.....my camera and memory cards are going IN)

Great pic's once again, thanks for sharing. Amazing fish. That sure does look like the same fish from November 16 and the 23rd, gill markings are identical! Really like the b/w shot of the 'fight'!
