There you have it, authentic frontier gibberish. Who here can argue with Gabby Johnson.

Just a standard Fenwick 867 story here. Several years back I broke the tip section of my Sage 697XP. Since I’m from that neighborhood I packed it up and dropped it off at Sage. I had been SRC fishing with it and the 6wt Outbound Short. So for grins I simply put that reel on the 7wt Fenwick for a...

Wow, thanks for sharing. I bought those same plans a few years ago, thinking it would make a good retirement project. And, I’m sure I have all of the required tools (thanks Dad, RIP). I’m only missing two things: talent and I’m lazy. Seriously, I have built a boat before, but that was 60+ years...

Baby I’m board.

Met a kindred spirit character at the Gearhart GC Saturday, 30 minute common roots conversation over the hood of his old Datsun PU. Was enamored with his hood ornament: a well done probably synthetic/magnetic banana slug. Fitting, and I’m almost jealous.

Very good! Could be that a well deserved cocktail is kicking in (after a long drive). Or, that Rio laughed upon reciting, and he’s usually pretty quiet. Moa dog jokes please.

Nice table! I’ve had one for 35 years or so. Weber too, I’ve had a few. Spread fit for a party (of Lions ;-).

Outstanding thread gentlemen. Fun read. Viva pesca!

No problem. In Spring I camp with the same crew of 40 years now. Some stories never grow old. Once in a while a new one comes along.

Outstanding! Not sure how many here have caught this, but atmospheric scientists are just now realizing about these essentially/nearly invisible swirling wind conditions, that VG somehow captured 100 years ago.

“Swing both ways, have twice the fun.” Twelve+ years back at a HS reunion I saw an old friend who’d been in the timber industry. He had run a timber mill in Minnesota and then bought rights to a mill somewhere in Russia. No surprise, as it became a success the government took it over with zero...

Rep, I am truly enjoying your posts, I am, don’t stop. But you are waaaay over the top Pal. I’ve learned a lot here, partially that my habit is tame by at least one standard. One thought is you might find other hobbies, but no. Then you’d be just another bland add on like most of us. No, I...

Good luck Paul. It’s remotely possible your family can’t imagine you without a trusted buddy, as mine does. You are due. We have Rose in the family (from Gary) and she is love personified. Pity we don’t hunt as she’s birdie as H.

I was smoking a bit usually when Firesign would come on the radio. I’d often get the last joke midway into the next. It was laughyerass funny stuff, at least with a buzz on. …. “civilization whoooa!” Also, had a friend with the alias Nick Danger. Now I know where it came from.

Just warming up the obligatory post sex conversation so I can go to sleep soon.

This was a Jeep Cherokee with an automatic. I did go easy on the brakes on the top half. Today I’d maybe stop for a few minutes once or twice on the way down. Never had brake trouble in that car before or after this event.

No current intelligence here. We used to go the week after Mothers Day but haven’t been back in a long time. Vaguely recollect that it was chilly and the fishing mediocre, that particular day. What I do remember well is the cold leisurely beer or two at the stop sign, bottom of the grade. You...

Jim T, I enjoy your inciteful posts. The California Camper, various configurations, many aimed at the beach apparently. Cue “Surfin Safari”. Not cheap though starting at $60K+.
