I'll do that Trap. Should have it in a couple of days. In the mean time I've been working on the woven patterns. The gills and a couple of largemouth approve so far.

Tee time in a little while......I love Wednesdays.

Hope you hit them straight RG. Taking the fly rod for a little walk tomorrow. See if I can find the fish I haven't been after since I was a boy.

I've been mentoring as well as I can RG.
Was thinking I better get down there to fish for a day with him, may be easier to pass on my elder views to him on a stream or pond somewhere. LOL
On second thought, through email is better. He may see through my seemingly expertice as the BS it truly is...

All jokes aside. The knowledge I have gained on here and IS is priceless.
Most of it came from you old f--ts! I gotta show a little respect.
And let's face it. Old or young, we're ALL full of BS! We fish...we BS.
'cept Gamma of course! He don't!

That is the start to a good poem there Slayer!
I have noticed how respectable, and respected you have become on here since
the beginning of your MOD days!

I am one of them men on here that has that respect towards ya!
RG, Trapper, 1Fish, Gamma, HT....and alot of the other regulars here also get Kudo's from me,
simply from the endless supply of knowledge you guys deliver!
Good stuff Guy's...let's keeper her rolling

Now you guys have me looking through materials catalogs on line....Is there a patch for this?
I quit cold turkey a few years ago....Tried to occupy myself with the boat.....Keep saying I love to troll, I love to troll and clicking my heels three times.
To quote a fellow ole'fart OYE!!!!

[rgfixit]

It's good for you....no need to quit. Just get earplugs to avoid the inevitable "What do you need that for?" from the bride.

I'm headed to the creek in a while to play in the water. Short day today

I'll put up some pics later Trap.
