I'm still in Anchorage, hopefully, by the end of this week, I'll be home and online. Mark

On my 61 birthday I had a stroke. After bringing me back to life in Fairbanks they Mediflighted me to Anchorage where I have been recuperatining. Early this week I have open heart surgery to fix a valve. Hopefully, if all goes well, I'll be back home and back on the forums by end of next week. See you then.

Looks like you are a pepper prepper. How are they coming?

Very pretty.

Mmm, sounds good.

It sounds like the San Juan river area is a very challenging place to live and make a living. Probably the last thing on anyone's mind is providing a rewarding fishing experience to someone from out of town. It sounds like the place has a poor economy in good times, much less after covid shutdowns. I'm sure people here appreciate your information but I'm wondering why you said it with such acrimony. Sounds like something else is going on.

Very cool, it looks like a biggin.

Yep, I can't go back either. Those look great, even if they don't have gadwall in them.😀 You must have a slightly different recipe than Norms. They all look good to me.

I can't see page 12 so if you addressed me in any way Poopdeck, I can't see it.

I would think you were right but I think that wire gauge would be the only thing, then they could have marked it up three sizes and added "extra fine wire"

That's a good uncle.

I had one in an aquarium too, about 44 years ago. His name was Schnidley Whiplash because of the way they fish.

I have some gadwall, you want some? Teal and wood duck are great substitutes. Nice bug.

I think I learned that in first grade when I traced my hand to draw a thanksgiving turkey for my Mom. 😁
