PJ2 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2016 Trout, the Thundercreek was the first fly I ever attempted to tie. Its a great pattern. I'll sit out on this one unless it dosent fill. then i'll jump in. I've been in so many swaps lately that i feel like I'm "hogging the show" hopefully we can pull in some new blood to the swaps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2016 toilets that need repair flytire, you think your toilet is a problem. A friend from the other board bought a Perfect from me. He lives near Tulsa and I'm not that far out of the way in western OK on his way to spend a week trout fishing in New Mexico and CO. On the way here he got a call from the guy remodeling his upstairs level and putting in a bathroom. To do it they were going to have to knock out much of the downstairs bathroom to add one upstairs. When asked what the extra costs would be it came out almost exactly what he had in his pocket budgeted for the Trout Trip. So, he bought the reel, we bs'ed for a few hours, I gave him a bunch of flies, and he turned around and drove home. That's what you call a trip really going down the toilet. I offered to keep the reel since I really didn't need the money for it or him to take it pay me after the toilet nightmares were over but said that's from a different budget and took the reel.
