    Ha! I hope he did but I still want my flies:(
  2. Two years in a row they failed to give me the adhesive. This year I had to go to three stores before any one knew what I was talking about.

    Have not received mine yet. I'm a little surprised. I've always gotten quick service. I guess maybe the usps had a mix up with their service because of the holiday. They did make it in the mail correct?
  4. Jordan's out. How come everyone makes "other" plans when the river and weather line up. Oh well. Their loss.
  5. Been following this thread for a couple days. I'm not sure what is trying to be communicated by this anecdote or if it is a factual account. But what I can't figure out is why such an elitist fly fisherman was on an Illinois stream tossing dries for warm water fish. Something is not adding up.
  6. Barely broke 7ft. Already dropping. River should be perfect for a float Saturday. 85 degrees and sunny. I'll be on the river for sure. Come on man, think positive.
  7. I thought the ISA was about educating anglers? You need to be educated in chugbugology:)
  8. I'm in. I'll bring you a chug bug and we can teach you how to use it. Actually I haven't fished much this year and haven't used any top water yet.
  9. I'm selling all my ice fishing gear. Over 1100.00 worth of stuff. I have it listed on Craig's List for 700.00. I'd be willing to go as low as 500.00. Visit the link for a list of items. PM me if you're interest or have any questions. http://rockford.craigslist.org/spo/4448738105.html
  10. Just listened to the Orvis podcast. He had Joe Humphreys on and apparently he almost never uses a strike indicator. Interesting podcast episode.
  11. Or here http://tightlinesflyshop.bigcartel.com/product/riendeau-ringers
  12. I was in the area and stopped to check out the store. Talked a little with Jeremy and another guy for a bit. They already have a decent size inventory with more on the way! Great selection of tying material. I had just left Bass Pro where I had bought some tying material. Wish I would have waited DFC had a better selection and better prices. I did buy a Cliffs Bugger Barn fly box and some yarn. I hope they do well and get a lot of local support. Wish they were closer to me.
  13. I tied one of those over the winter. You're right it's not the easiest to tie but does look to be a good fly. Pushes a lot of water but gets a little heavy for my 6wt.
  14. I've been tying up the same. Very simple.
  15. Ready For Some Sturgeon Bay Smallmouth!

    That's seven including Bart. Unless I miss counted the responses. Is there a due date?
  17. Great idea. I dropped a pair in the water in Sylvania last year.
  18. Got my Costa's with copper lenses in the mail yesterday. They fit great. Retail $169 but I got them for 59.99 from Steap and Cheap. I've been wearing 4.99 polarized Berkley from Walmart for several years.
  19. Can't do breakfast. Might float with you afterwards since I'll have my kayak with anyway.
  20. At least Paul will be speaking so it's not total malarkey.
  21. Just got the Spring issue in the mail earlier this week. Since I don't know Tim I would not have made the connection. I usually start reading The Drake from front to back now I'm tempted to skip straight to your article Tim. Very cool indeed.
