As a taster…where is the head, I am stunned by this pattern. Dave

This was posted on a BC site. Haven’t heard of a lot of these tyers but OMG, a lot beautiful ties. Really exquisite, some of the caddis patterns are insane. Dave https://www.weareflyfishing.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/reunie-1.pdf

When I get an unexpected or dodgy email re an outstanding debt or financial 'issue', the first thing I do is hit 'Reply' and very carefully look at the senders email address, you can typically see it is off, websites can be very carefully copied. I also limit the # of cards I have (2) and use...

When I worked on prawn trawlers in Mallaig, they were affectionately known as shite hawks. Everytime we hauled gear and dumped it into the sorting pond, hundreds would literally lose their shit. Being head to toe in grundens with your hood up was a must. Covered head to toe. Skipper would hose...

I just saw this link and thought some folks might be interested. I spent yrs tide pooling in the sound with my kids and we never saw one of these. Really bizarre looking fish, makes sculpin seem quite svelte… Dave https://www.discoverwildlife.com/animal-facts/marine-animals/rockhead-poacher

Tried herb crusted lamb as a Saturday night treat using a Gordon Ramsay recipe, very good, maybe need a slight hotter oven re a litttle more browning but was carefully following the recipe as first time I’d tried it. Only bummer was I’m off alcohol for a while post the holidays. My wife said...

I missed out on them, by the time I looked only sizes I had no need for were left 😩 Dave

I reached out and got this...They be open for business. Dave Good Morning Dave Thank you for reaching out. I bought the company from Joe (former owner) after he announced he was closing. So yes, we are back up and running after building up inventories again and a brand new website. Thank you, John

Interesting, says they’ is out of NE…good news as I love their hooks. A will gladly pay a little extra. Dave

We had a wee splurge for starters tonight with caviar blinis to kick off our dinner. Dave

Kids are home for the holidays, all in home made lasagna. Dave

I'm in, I've been a total lard and need to get back to the bench. Love the BCFlyguys too so not an issue there, I'll have to look at a few of them again to pick a pattern :) Dave

I was lucky enough to have had a colleague at work take me under his wing or at least introduce me to his Buds but saved me getting savaged, too much….Fast forward 20 yrs and I know so much more and am a trusted member of that small, tight group. The bummer is I’m 15-20 yrs behind them and...

Simples…I like your style. We can sometimes over complicate things 😀 Dave

My son just brought me back this pistachio creama from Florence. So just gosh darned righteously good, want to make cookies and use this as a filling but keep eating a scoop 😀 Dave

I’d say maybd a codling but will let one of our fish bios note what it really is.

Matt B is a great spud. You had a wonderful trip, nice one. Dave

All very good points, I used a digital probe to test the temp and it checked out fine much to my great surprise. The chicken/b milk sat out at room temp from 10 am and then in the pan at 330 so bird was not cold af the core. And not a big bird at 2.5 odd lbs, my oven sucks. These are all great...

And now the report. It was very good, the moistness is given an 11/10 as all the breast meat I had was very,very tender. It did make me think of Indian tikka dishes where the concept is similar but they use plain yogurt vs buttermilk and add a load of spices to soak in and a load of turmeric to...
