Flat Rock native 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2017 It will be a few weeks, but I found my shoulder harness for my cameras, so I will try not to fish without it, and I promise you I will catch fish on that thing! They could be disoriented fish after staring at Beyon Ugly but they will eat it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 Mine went out in today's mail. I threw in several bonus flies and the fly on the slip of paper that says "Thanks for hosting" goes to the 'meister. If anyone catches anything on mine, let me know. I haven't been able to go fishing in round 3 years now, so hearing that someone caught a fish on my fly would be the next best thing. Take care BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 I wondered if I should do a customs declaration at the post office before I mailed it. I wasn't sure that Wyoming is in the United States or not. Maybe it would get there quicker if we treated it like international mail. BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 Horses wouldn't live that long. I figured it would take mules at least if not donkeys to get it there. Too stubborn to die. I hope they let us know when the mule train pulls out of Independence, Missouri. That's when we have to start worrying about indian attack and running out of water in the middle of the desert.

Saltybum 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2017 Yeah, April 18 is better than the 15th. I'm sure the already slow mail will be clogged with the real IRS stuff in two weeks. But had to make a joke about the date. So sorry to hear about Woodenlegs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
