    Merwin Day of Fishing for kids with disabilities

    I read the article about last year’s event. Very cool. Outings like that recharge one’s soul…at least I think so. I also believe we touch other people’s lives in unknown ways…so good on you…who knows what sort of impact you’ll have in a kid’s life 👍

    No fish were harmed for this report

    I was out in Vermont for the last month giving my sister a well deserved break from assisting our aging father who's slipping into dementia. I brought some fly tying and fishing gear along, intending to get a little fishing in and I thought I'd share the experience. Two days after my wife and...

    Vermont Info

    Thursday morning I fly out to the Land of Zak to help out with an aging parent. I'll be out there for nearly a month in order to give my sister a break. I'm telling myself I'll have at least one free day per week and/or a couple hours per day here and there. I will be in the area of Stowe...

    NFR Shit Oh Dear

    Picked it up from my wife (who grew up in a small town in northern Montana) and her family. It was a favorite of her parents (who would have been in their late 90's today). After using it one day at work, a much younger co-worker asked my wife, 'did you just say someone shit a deer?'....it...

    What's in your vise?

    Why spend $6 on a little piece of foam from Hareline when you can spend 10 times more on a nifty set of plastic spring loaded clips that do the same thing. Sheese, this IS fly tying after all.....c'mon guys ;) https://www.edsflyshop.com/magic-tool-clip-set-regular-marc-petitjean-fly-tying/...

    Basic Survival Skills for a Flyfisherman Just Learning to Swim

    I’ve been to at least two autopsies of people who sat on their PFD on a flat calm day. I’ve also waited with family and friends for over a day while SAR worked to recover the body. It changes one’s opinion

    Decked truck bed drawer system

    I know nothing about the Deck system so what I'm about to share might be meaningless....that said, we used the TruckVault system in a number of our patrol vehicles and had the Extendobed system in our two F250 CSI Trucks. Probably got the Extendobeds in 2015 or 2017 when we were running those...

    Basic Survival Skills for a Flyfisherman Just Learning to Swim

    Lots of good advice being shared....here's what I have to add.... First, in addition to 'knowing your limits' is to be aware of your 'triggers' (for lack of a better descriptor)....meaning I know at the end of the day when I'm tired, hungry, dehydrated, whatever, I am more likely to take higher...
