Pretty sure I threw it away like a month ago. Will check when I get home on Sunday.

Anybody have one of these collecting dust they would be interested in selling?

Last year, my brother-in-law's son got interested in fly fishing. So I organized a trip to South Twin lake to take him out in a float tube and show him the basic basics of fly fishing. It sort of snowballed, and it ended up being me, my wife, daughter, brother-in-law and his son going. My...
