@SurfnFish thank you for this thread.

What a great deal. Beautiful little boat too.

@Zak, I agree with you. The new, LED, Mini Mag Lite Pro, I picked up, is incredibly bright, light weight and small in size. USA made. Hell of a price point for what you get. Ive been using mag lites for decades ( work and leisure/ full size and mini models). Im very impressed with LED...

What Sculpin Swinger has done is nice. Ive DIY those and they work great. What I dont like about them is the eventual stretch of the rubber, rendering them about useless. Instead of making them anymore, I just use dollar tree scrunchies. If you do this, make sure you get the scruchies that...

@RCF, If I understand you correctly, you are saying you like the stability of the C Clamp but It doesn't fit ( open wide enough to grab onto) some Campground Tables..is that right? I ran into that a few times, especially on the older picnic tables, at USFS camps. I just take a small, thin...

Pure Class all around. Gorgeous.

@Dr. Magill, Timeless, old school tip. Wipe/roll the male end of your ferrule connection on your nose. The grease helps to get the ferrules apart after use. Or if you use lip balm, wipe against your recently doctored lips. Carmex works great. Back to the OP post...........I terribly miss...

@Cliff, If you dont know this, you can still look up all those great patterns and info for FlyAnglers Online. At least I could last Fall. Terrible shame when there stopped being an active Fly Anglers Online. I still go back for a lot of their Bass Patterns. Nothing much more fun than a...

Welcome @aheinz.

That anti litter campaign ad mentioned above, evidently, has surfaced again but not in a good way. Indigenous peoples dont like the portrayal of the Native person. Personally, I feel the ad had no ill intent and was pretty impactful and also tastefully done. Be that as it may, I always...

Perfect. Cheered me up on a kinda shitty day. Thank you.

Flyfishing for Sharks, Richard Louv. Not sure how I missed this when it came out in 2000. Just cracked it open last nite. Rich and entertaining.
