    NFR 1963

    I was in the 6th grade and when a teacher announced it, the TV was turned on and we watched the news. A few girls cried and I wondered why since they didn’t personally know Kennedy. A few days later, after it all sank in, I felt sad. Watched the news everyday until the burial.

    What plants, weeds and/or trees do you hate and why?

    I looked up the goat head plant and I believe this is the exact plant that poked a bunch of super tiny holes in my float tube about 40 years ago in the Lake Lenice parking lot. I could never figure out why my float tube had a tiny leak until I returned to my car and looked where I flopped my...

    Barb vs. No Barb

    I have always fished barbless. However, 5 years ago I did a solo guided drift boat trip out of Bozeman on the Missouri River. The guide put on a dry fly with a barb. I told him he forgot to pinch it down and he said it was optional on this river. It bothered me to fish with a barbed fly...

    NFR Am I the only grump who doesn't care about Halloween?

    I enjoyed Halloween when my kids were younger, but now they are adults. I don’t care for it now. However, I like seeing good yard decorations. Christmas is too commercial, I just like family dinners for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Going out of state for fly fishing trips is my best holiday.

    Will you now post fishing content on Twitter?

    I have an account too, but maybe look at it a few times of the year. It’s pretty much a time waster for me. I plan to delete the app this weekend now that I think of it.

    Official Cooking of Russell Thread

    I agree. In the last few years with the Seahawks, he wasn’t as exciting to watch.

    Official Cooking of Russell Thread

    Not at all, she can’t give up the money. Although she is a singer, she wasn’t as well known until she married Russ. Then she got more exposure because of him.

    Lone bass?

    I thought there had to be a few large ones in there since I have caught a fair number of small ones over the years. What a nice surprise for you back then.
