If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

The bumble bee pattern was outstanding. Bunch of gills and 2 largemouth. The black and white worked for a while and the brown/black took a couple of smallish smallmouth. They didn't seem too interested in the orange...which surprised me.

Quick trip to the testing hole ;D


Time to eat :P

Thanks Trap, Gotta change my line!! Gotta check which line I put on that 9wt. of mine!! Tightlines--KP ;)

RG  one  think  i  said  about  the  foam  bee's  i  believe  it's  the  color!!!   i  always   catch  fish  on  yellow  and  black  ,  keep  track  and  see  if  it  holds  true  with  you  also

The same one's worked well for me RG and Trap. (foam bee's that Trap made for me). Mark that one in the books as a true, tried and tested success!

RG, sorry, I'll try to rid myself of the mushy crud, just get a little happy at times reading the man love Trap and you have lately! :whistling: Just picking guys. ;)

  man  love????  i  think  it's  more  like  grumpy  old  men   ...we  just   keep  enabling  each  others  addiction  :rotflol:.....whats  nice  for  me  is   to  get  people   re interested  or  interested  in  flyfishing ...  ya  got  to  pass  the  faith  or  rekindle  it  ..... besides   you  could  put  a  eye  out  with  a  casting  bobber....   hey  it  is  nice  for  me     i'm  copying  RG's  flies  now  i  must  have  tied  4  doz  sculptins   now  i'll  be    tying   the  woven ones  ....  i'm  working  on  a  bass  fly  ...a  salamander  ...i  figure  if  a  rubber  lizard  works   on a  texas  rig  a  weighted  one  worked  slow  should too

Still getting my daily chuckles here.
Pizza looked awesome RG!!
Spent the afternoon at the farmers market with the bride. Then worked on the name on the boat. Will post it on the boat thread.
Have a no. 10 bumble bee ready to go on the rod. Found this time of year sometimes bigger is better. Watched a neat show on the fishing network last night. They were catching big brookies in Labrador with mice!! Big beautiful deer hair mice!!
