  1. Nice tie Joe. Put a white wing on it and call it "ChocChipMintW/Whip" JR
  2. WOW This thing has just got to kill the steelies. Love the colors. I have got to try a few of these. JR
  3. Nice Tie Summit I like the third pic. What size hook is that in the upper left hand corner. It's massive. Jr
  4. That thing makes me itch just looking at it. Great tie. JR
  5. OLB Keep your head up. God and Love work in mysterious ways. I was with a gal who I thought was the love of my life. When our son was 5 months old she up and moved to Cali. I thought it was all over at that point. I swore that I would never get together with another woman ever. I was wrong, and I am glad I was. Maybe you should look for someone who enjoys the things you do. Heck, Maybe you will find a gal who ties/fishes better than you. LOL I will keep you in my prayers. Good luck JR
  6. A friend of mine is selling his fishin boat cheap. Let me know if you know anyone that needs one. JR
  7. I went steelheadin yesterday and hooked into this beaut'. I was using a minnow pattern. Nasty strike too. Just about ripped my pole from my hand. It hit right after the swing. JR
  8. I don't know if this will work so here goes. This is so funny JR
  9. Simply Amazing Bud. My dad carves ducks also. He calls it relaxing. I never had the patients for it. I will try to send some pics of his work soon. JR
  10. This is crazy!! Just the other day my boy and I were in the yard catching grasshoppers and he kept a few in a plastic bowl. One of the hoppers suddenly died and out of its head came a larve of some sort. I knew I should have taken pics. The larve was white in color and had a few black spots on it (about the size of a maggot). The next day it was gone. I think it burrowed its way into the other hopper in the bowl. I am waiting to find out what it looks like when it emerges again. I think we have a parasite wasp in the area but have never seen this. If you know, let me know. JR
  11. Just hit $3.06 for the cheep stuff here in Chelan Wa. If you want the good stuff its $3.20 I just put $50 in and got 3/4 of a tank. Good thing my fishing spot is close. JR
  12. hello FF lady. Good to have you here. Enjoy the site I know I have. JR
  13. If your thread is big enough take your bodkin and split the tread. Insert the dubbing and spin your bobbin threader. The more you spin the tighter the rope. I hope this works for you. JR
  14. Nice minnow pattern. Looks easy to tie. JR
  15. I sell real estate in the beautiful town of Lake Chelan, Washington. My wife is the assistant to the CEO of a major bank in town. Our son Ty is a master goof off, but thats ok, he's only 4. This is a great thread. Just to see what everyone does in there daily life. JR
  16. I usually tie mine wth one brown and one grizzly hackle. I like the lighter color on the dark bottom rivers I fish. JR
  17. QUOTE (luvinbluegills @ Jun 22 2005, 02:14 PM) The most effective, good looking, easy to tie, tastes great less filling, lose 10 pounds in a week, more miles to the gallon dragonfly nymph ever created! Right here. LBG That pattern looks alot like the Brick Back Caddis, and yes it is deadly. I use it when nothing is workin. JR
  18. Yeah Baby!!!!!!!!!! Got my hat today. I couldn't tell you packed these in your tying room. I opened the box and "poof" feathers everywhere. Looks great. Let me know if you get any in different colors. I will get those too. JR
  19. I with the dragonfly guys. Looks like em to me JR
  20. hope you still have hats. I just orderd mine. If not let me know. JR
  21. Nice shrimp Blue. I have to tie up a few of these in an orange color and try on the steelies. JR
  22. QUOTE (ArkieFlyGuy @ May 13 2005, 07:57 AM) Great fish JR! Where was this place again? Arkie I live in beautiful Lake Chelan, Washington. The smallies around here are getting in the 7Lb range. I have seen some that could be a new state record. We will see. JR
  23. I caught this SM bass on a wooly bugger just under the dock at my parents place the other evening. I think it was close to 6 pounds. MAN!!!! I maxed out the 3 wt rod with this one. Had to let her go so she could spawn. Lots of males in the area too. Sorry about the bad pic. JR
  24. I think it was Chris Rock that once said "Fly fishing is like jerking off, but without the pay out" JR
