    NFR Humor (No political jokes)

    Might have mentioned before that at 2 or 3 I walked 1/2 mile to greet my brother at the school bus stop. Mom was none too happy and chased me home, with a switch as I recall.

    This Is One "Bad Ass" Lady!

    Fearless? Probably not, completely. Determined? Abso(freaking)lutely. A credit to all law enforcement.

    Early Fenwick

    I have a not-so-rare FF 857 that I enjoy throwing occasionally. Most recently I found some magic with a Wulff 4wt Ambush for single hand Spey and/or overhead. As I recall it also liked the 6wt Outbound Short when my SRC rod was in for repair. These were, and still are, some fine serviceable...

    He is creating Far Side comics again but I don’t see that he’s re-entered syndication. Try this for a sample: https://www.thefarside.com/

    I’d be awfully proud to release a 14 lb brownie.

    This Is One "Bad Ass" Lady!

    My guess is that Officer Tank paid attention in the class about arresting perpetrators. No doubt it’s serious business. She certainly has street cred now and I expect most of the other officers appreciate working with her.

    Sort of funny and gud timing. I just spent a few days with my bil who flies high altitude balloons, with one of the few amateur clubs worldwide. So far his record is 325 days with 14+ circumnavigations. There are interesting logistics you and I probably wouldn’t think of. For instance, the...

    Please convince me to buy a trout spey rod

    I had an Echo SR 4wt too, very fun rod at a reasonable price. I threw a Wulff Ambush with it most and it was a great fairly versatile match. Think I sold it when I got the Winston MS, but I had fun hucking streamers with it.

    Good price for 30 seconds of work. “I done my job, she done hers.” (Dad ;-)

    AKC Golden Retriever puppies

    I got Rose from Gary 5 years back for my daughter. Incredible sweet dog and she’s much loved by all. Pity I don’t hunt because she’s a born natural and birdie as h***, with intense focus. If I could take another dog, I would. Anyone that doesn’t like Goldens has a screw loose.

    NFR B-17 Bomber

    An eerier B17 story: I grew up in Suquamish, fishing, boating, skiing and diving around Agate Passage. My parents were both Marines, dad a lifer, and have now passed away many years back. They both requested their ashes be scattered in Agate Passage. We kept their urns here at the house for...

    Well probably the simplest photoshop, but I like it.

    What have you done for your boat lately?

    Well, I’ve enjoyed some severe storm conditions, and actually enjoyed the challenge, but that was flat out crazy water. Not sure why any sane person would take it on.

    What have you done for your boat lately?

    I have seen some rough water, that I won’t brag about. But, the most difficult was surveying the South end of San Francisco Bay in a 30+ knot breeze from the north. Shallow water, the waves stack up. I’m sure they were 15’+ waves with maybe a 30’ period. It were brutal, and eventually we gave...
