    just checked my stash, I have the Cortland Type 9 level sink, not the Compact sink, if you are interested. WF6/7 size.

    Bread Thread

    Lemon Blueberry focaccia. Not sure you can call what I worked with a dough as opposed to calling it a pudding. Hope it tastes as good as it looks.

    Show me your bass

    In Tennessee with my 93 y/o parents, I was flyfishing and catching plenty of bluegill and my mom pulled this smallmouth from the area I had just caught a big bluegill. She was using a small rapala type lure. I aspire to still be fishing at 93. About 16 inches.

    Found the owner of "FOUND: Fly rod, reel, line"

    A couple years ago I lost a fly rod on one of the seeps, so if it's a custom wrapped St. Croix, it's mine.

    Bread Thread

    My breads have been getting flatter lately, I store my starter in the fridge, I typically do a 1:5:5 feed the night before I mix the bread. I decided to give my starter a little more love, and did twice daily feedings for a couple days before this bake. Certainly was worth the extra work...

    Tennis Elbow?

    Tennis player and retired physician here. The braces they showed above work decently. It just takes some time really. No need to stop but activity may be less fun for awhile. Get on the Google and look for exercises, wrist extension and flexion with weight worked well for me. I actually...

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    What's Catching You Fish?

    This ugly thing accounted for two steels, including a wild hen, today. The water was high and off colored today, (surprise), and I was using a Hoh-bo type spey fly and was thinking I should use something bigger and louder. I hung up on a rocks couple minutes later and broke off and found this...

    Favorite Fly To Tie?

    I, too, have tied way too many flies and have many that will never see water. My favorite ties are done the day before hitting the water and are tied specifically for that day of fishing, and I love it when they bring me a fish..... Right now it is steelhead flies.
