Just came across this thread. Absolutely awesome. Mad skills! How much have you invested so far and what do anticipate will be the final cost? Thanks for taking us along.

That is how I've lost 80% of mine.

@Buzzy mentioned something in the "Safety" thread that I thought might make an interesting / funny / informative thread on its own. Stories of how we've hooked ourselves or someone else, I suppose. I'll start with 3 incidents that stand out in my fading memory from a lifetime of fishing...

I have to admit that I became rather complacent about wearing a PFD. It was usually hanging on the back of the seat on my pontoon. That was until I had a heart attack while floating the Yakima Canyon. When I realized I needed to get off the river a couple of miles away it occurred to me that...

Dad had me fishing from the start on one of the beautiful Finger Lakes of Western NY, so fishing is in my genes. I also love wondering in the woods around our house and was fascinated with the critters living in the creek. I had a neighbor who would talk to me about fly fishing. He would...

For fun with foam. The Unsinkabeetle.

Sine I have the foam out how about a hopper.

More salmon fly dries.

Split foam back emerger, PMD version (Charlie Craven).

More fun with wool. The Butt Monkey, olive version

Brokeback Crawdaddy in olive, size 4 front and back. Unless these work miracles, I'm not going to be tying too many of these. I don't have the attention span anymore.

It might be a futile as trying to sweep back the ocean, but like TikTok, Temu is hard no for me.

Wayne, that describes what I was thinking. You are spot on. I understand them sticking to their policy and I don't think it was unfair of me to ask. I also wasn't implying that I would never buy from them again.

First thing I did was check the battery and contacts. I suspect a poor connection in the sealed head. I'm just going to get a better light. Problem is the resin manufacturers say their lights are the correct wavelength for their products. Kind of locks you into one brand unless you want to...

I realize that most of the time you only hear people's opinion about a business is when they have a problem, which skews reviews of said business, and I guess I am no different. I will try to be fair, because I was asking for relief outside of Feather Craft's return policy. Anyway, I wanted to...

Traveling sedge?

A batch of Boogymen. First time using wool. What I've learned from this experiment is consistent heads not only requires trimming skills (I'm not there yet) and using consistent (amounts) clumps of wool. The forgiving part with wool is if you screw it up a bit you can pick it out and recover...
