Chicken dinner, our Sunday night staple. The left over gravy gets frozen and ‘recycled’ for juices from the next bird. We’re about 50 birds in, it is really good. Dave

Haddock is the best for fish and chips. Grew up in the west coast of Scotland and that was the only fish fried then. Times have changed and now other fish are used but haddock is just amazing. Finnan haddies and Arbroath smokies as how smoked haddock, just unreal to flavor and in soups. Cullen...

I hate the fall as it really ends Summer but the opp to make things like a stew with short ribs and porcini is a crutch that gets me through, serving looks like crap but Lordy, delicious. Dave

Me2, met Jerry on a couple of occasions re pig dealings on the old site. Totally lovely guy, and his efforts re project healing waters are simply mammoth. A giant of a man. Dave

Probably cost you $3k or more….not that I’d know 😎 Dave

This reminded me of something that I saw in early July, I thought I'd spotted it on here but I guess I forgot to. Dave Imagine driving a truck with 4 x 4 boxes of whisky stacked 5 boxes high all wrapped in clingfilm with no ties. I was 1 car behind it today on Leary…Add in a shade of road...

Aye, in a garden not near you 😀 Scot’s whae hae!!! Dave

My neighbor’s sons band at his 60th in his front yard. Totally cool to hang out in the front yard and watch them play. Dave

First tying on wing buds, now also straggly legs….it never ends. Burnt orange thread will not also cover this 😀 it never ends…we’ll be tying soft hackles next. Dave

Dunno, I’m ignorant, I think more chiro based on everything else re their look and crane fly are terrestrial bugs so the emergers wouldn’t be in the lake but who knows, those legs… We need Taxon 😀 Dave

I was on a uk forum and a poster had these from a pumped fish. I’ve never seen mids with legs, these are still sub emergers and so I need to look more carefully. Pretty cool I thought. Dave

There’s a greater perverse pleasure when things not going to plan work out better than if the usual plan had. A slab indeed, very nice fish. Dave

I make it a lot easier by multiples of stuff I forgot I already have…😀 Dave

Had a ‘do’ yesterday and used the smoked pork and the pork belly I’d been sous viding. It was stellar, as I’d hoped. Put the pork in convection oven with no heat to dry the skin and then later whacked it to 450 to git er dun. So lovely to share food with friends and have a shindig. A pal made...

6 that I recall but most were crap so no loss and broken by fish,car door or my stupidity. My mom broke the first good rod that I had saved up for when a kid, a Bob Church boron loch rod. She put it in the trunk, closed it and crunch, the bottom male ferrule was toast, I might have cried… I was...

We got a pair of tomatillos, man do they grow and the bees love them so win win there and I see a salsa verde pic in the ‘whatchya eating?’ thread to come 😀 Dave

Humpies usually come in pairs and Matt B and I found out Dave

Thank you Matt, I had a super time and those pinks are a lot fun, slimey be damned. Short releases were appreciated by both of us 😀 The doubles were a blast and man they are strong fish. I had a 6 and Matt an 8. Many went down deep and just would not be turned to the net. If you ever need lefty...

I saw this online, an odd looking but cute shark. An amazing color. Dave https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/orange-nurse-shark-costa-rica-b2810844.html
