  1. In all honesty I feel like if there were quality flylines available, that casted fine, had a decent coating, and didn't stretch like a rubber band, ect. for under 10.00 .....Then surely everyone who was a flyfishing guru would know about it. And the big 3 would be out of business.
  2. The bugs are gradually coming back now. That little break from them was kinda weird.....but it was nice ! A place where there are no flys, mosquito's, ticks or chiggers WOULD BE nice !
  3. The very last place I will skimp when I go broke....is my flylines. I'd go to cheap cheesy tippet material first.
  4. The problem I've experienced with cheap fly lines is that although some of them do indeed cast just fine.....they stretch like you're fishing with a rubber band. Good hook sets are practically impossible. You can get away with that if you're short-line trout/bluegill fishing, but when you are fishing for bass/stripers/ect. with 30+feet of line out, you've got 8+ feet of S-T-R-E-T-C-H to manage. I just can't enjoy that.
  5. If you go to business meetings HUNGRY and expecting to enjoy a delicious meal...... You're just out of my league! πŸ˜…
  6. If your Subway sandwich sucks then it's YOUR FAULT πŸ˜… They build them exactly how you tell them to, ya know?
  7. So, you have a problem with, or are too aloof for.... Subway ?
  8. RIO Outbound Short is my line of choice for that.
  9. What is there to "think through"? All of the different ways to say "No" ?
  10. She doesn't "work" for anyone, as far as I know. The NWS doesn't pay their spotters I don't think.
  11. We have an official NWS spotter just up the hill. She is a paranoid lunatic and causes the sirens to be set off everytime a dark cloud blows over πŸ™„
  12. Oh I learned something too.... She has some fancy name for what it is πŸ‘ If you call it a "desk" it ain't worth the paint it took to cover it.......But if you call it the OTHER THING it sells for over 100 bucks with a quickness! All of the Karen's on her FB friends list were fighting over it. Marketing ! πŸ˜‰ Don't ask me the name she used, cuz I can't even pronounce it, much less spell it. Sounds expensive (French?) though. πŸ€”
  13. Actually it looks like I'm gonna come out ok this time. She decided not to keep it, listed it on FB Marketplace.....and sold that sumbitch in less than 10 minutes for 120.00 So I might have to help load it into this other gals truck when she comes to pick it up, but as it stands right now.....I'm ahead 50.00 ! πŸ˜€πŸ’°πŸ€ž
  14. Well I've started practicing. I got told to repaint this here desk thing.....and I refused. So she is doing it herself πŸ‘ This 20.00 dollar POS has cost me 70.00 so far......but I haven't had to touch it.
  15. If I thought I could diagnose and fix the issue I'd be more than happy to...... But I've been there/done that & wasted too much time on those 4-strokes that I couldn't charge for, because the issue never got properly cured. I'm picking my battles from here on out. πŸ‘ There's a good reason why they only did that crap for a year or two. πŸ™„
  16. Got me more closely studying that tree root in the back yard, that keeps bending my mower blade ! πŸ€”
  17. Man, I can't wait until everyone thinks I'm too old to do things ! Do they actually start doing it all themselves, and leave me to stand around and just watch ? Sounds like great entertainment! 😎
  18. Hey! Looking good πŸ‘

    Who do I share a birthday with? 😊
  20. Ah, the very rare J70FLTLECS It's likely that you'll spend a fortune....and it will never run right again. If by chance you (or someone) figures it out and fixes it, please let me know. Good Luck 🀞
  21. Why WOULDN'T angels of mercy come in pairs ? πŸ‘ Hallelujah !
  22. By way of California?
  23. I'm gonna go out on a limb here, and claim that anyone making 10k weekly in the modeling biz is NOT doing right by the lord. But who knows in this day/age πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
  24. It doesn't matter how you hold a walleye, you're gonna bleed regardless. πŸ˜…
