Moshup 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2021 @niveker Well you are going to get your rain ! I’m glad for it ! When we have a dry summer in Massachusetts it’s tough on the wildlife and fish. Jenning’s was an interesting man. Very proper. I think he was a little miffed at the attention Art Flick gained after his Streamside guide was published. Flick was a nice guy.
