Timo Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Winter Blues, confessions of my wandering mind Last night I bought some foam and tied a few Chernobyl Ants with dropper loops. So sitting at my desk wishing I was tying flies or fishing instead of working I decided to tie a Hopper Dropper ” in a virtual environment” and since I was working with PowerPoint I used it as my medium rather than my mind which has a overwhelming tendency to wander. And since I am at work I thought if I keep this up I am going to be terminated so I better come up with a viable income solution in the event I join the ranks of the unemployed. PPPHD Commercial Note the exquisite attention to detail in the side, top and bottom views with 100% conformity to scale and texture. This is a culmination of minutes of thought, inspiration and pure plagiarism. Visualize the beauty of its form and function as it works both as a strike indicator and as a delicious enticement to world class trophy sized trout, pike, panfish, bass and rising ling cod. All PowerPoint Polar Hopper Droppers are guaranteed to have shoddy whip finishing and extra super glue blotches. Additionally all PPPHD ® come with a “You paid how much for that” certificate of authenticity. Pre-order yours now before the rush. $39.95 each (that’s cheaper than Abel’s Nippers and you have an equal chance of catching a fish with it) as a pre-order introductory special. Feel confident and superior knowing your fly box is fortified with the technology of Microsoft PowerPoint 2003,Dell computer technology and the passion and world class craftsmanship of Badcaster. The first 20 orders will be signed and numbered! Anyhow I will be trying to tie one up tonight and I will see which is worse… this post or my fly.

Jayhad Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I've never tried a dropper loop, why not just tie of the bend Good work I spend hours not doing what I am supposed to at work but never thought of power point patterns.... nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffer Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Do they come with cheesy sound effects, animation & clip art that people think will jazz up an otherwise boring topic? If not you can keep them. The nice thing about a dropper loop is you basically run the hopper as you indicator. The dropper loop allows you to move it without cutting you line. Here is a good video by Mikey Wier on how to use the "Hopicator" system. Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaffer Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Well funny you should mention that PPPHD Commercial So I can expect your order? That was too damn funny. You have too much time on you hands. As for your pitch to the Dragon's Den, let me know. I did a pitch to the Dragon's in in studio for the 2010 season but it did not make it to the show.

bhurt Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Absoultly aswome, laughed my ass off, my fav part was the badass fish coming out of the water to eat the hopper, was it just me or was that a paraina (sp?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
