Thanks Scott, Booked a float with Living Waters Guide Service, and then will do 2 or 3 days of exploring on my own, Rock Creek, Little Blackfoot, Clark Fork, any other suggestions? Currently digging through all my old stream boxes and trying to pare things down to the essentials. Colin

Good Day All. I am joining my wife in Helena the second week in July, she will be attending a work retreat so I have 4 days to fish. I have planned to hire a guide for a float and will rent a vehicle so I can get out and explore on my own. Grew up in Alberta, so spent a lot of time on the Bow...

I'm late to the pizza party, but being a Chef for close to 35 years, I've launched a lot of pies. You can definitely do them on pans and bake in your pizza oven. When I was first starting in the kitchen I worked for a restaurant group in their commissary making pizza dough and shells for 15...

Literally each of these in tan and in various sizes Caught plenty of these in Cayo Coco/Cayo Paredon Cuba. Just walked in the door after an epic Bonefish adventure, Wife and I landed more than we would have ever expected. Colin

A herd (?) of crabs. Only a couple more spots to fill in my Bonefish box, T minus 23 days til Cuba

excellent, thank you. Finished my tarpon box and now on to Bonefish and Permit flies, Cuba at the end of March.

What is under the flexo tubing? I like the effect, I've been putting a ball of hot orange dubbing between the dumbell eyes, but yours look great.

I bought a toilet wax ring about 10 years ago and still have about 3/4 of it left, not a bad $5 investment. I just melt a chunk of it and pour it into my old Overtons dispenser.

Because its 'fly' tying, not 'flies' tying ;) sorry someone had too:ROFLMAO:
