I found this family many years ago. I think it was 2008 or so. I love fly fishing and fly tying. Smallie you're on Facebook. You have now standing Where are you?

We've offered personal support. we've offered content support. Sh..t, we've offered money This is a family formed many years ago. All have gone thorough much. Some have died or gone through life things that are quantifiable. We'll ,we're still here though (the core).

Any Precision shooters out there? I have the 1911s and 22lr pistols for bullseye that are pretty darn good. Way better than me. Picked up another Beretta 92FS/M9 today. It’s a good reliable accurate pistol out of the box. I have one in the safe already. Getting this one to accurize for bullseye/precision shooting. Out of the box most will do 3-inchs at 50 yds. We’ll see if it can be honed to 2 or less inches at 50 yards. We’ll need good ammo. I reload so I’ll develop a round specific to this firearm (hopefully). Which is way better then the person on dumb (dangerous) end of the pistol 😊. A lot of respect for those precision shooters. Note ladies and gents: These goals are not for self defense at 7yds or so. This is a marksmanship goal.

I haven't fished that section. Usually fish further upstream along hwy 108 or 395. Not sure how familiar you are with the river but the Walker is free flowing. Spring runoff will be kicking into gear towards the end of the month. The flow on the Walker can go from 100cfs to near or better than 2000cfs in April. The trout opener can be rough in the higher elevations or on free flowing rivers such as the Walker. High flows and cold water. If you're thinking dry fly you might consider BWO or even some Skawalas. See last years flow graph below. Of course YMMV Nice looking Sceeter Jaydub. I use Moose hair for the body on my flies as well. What size are you tying those at and are you using 1xl or 2xl hooks?

Sally's are on the way; Ride Sally Ride. USPS Tracking: 9400136105536780073969 Added a couple prototype salmonfly (Pteronarcys californica) nymphs. Hopefully you'll be able to fish'em. It's about that time of year.

Looks like you might have got the recipe from Steven Ojai's Fly Fishing the Sierra website https://ffsonlinestore.com/dry-flies/california-mosquito/. Can't go wrong with the info on that site. Also, good info above on proportions. I use moose hair for the body. Gives a nice segmented look with a natural color gradient. The Cal-Mosquito is deadly on Sierra streams and rivers. The Walker (east and west) has been good to me. Here's a link to his old sight https://flyfishingthesierra.com/flybox.htm. I'm used to it so the pattern list is easier for me to navigate. Also, look at the Sierra Bright Dot.

Yellow Sally Stimulators tied. Just need to tag and bag. Should be dropped off at the PO on Wednesday.

Got it. Thanks

Hey TT; my PM don't work so please email addy to jpolfer at hotmail dot com

That's a good looking loaf. Good oven spring. How was the crumb?

Kim was always gracious and willing to support and mentor new tyers. A wonderful Swapmeister. He will be missed. RIP

I'm in with the Yellow Sally stimulator. Kim will be sorely missed.
