I thought it was great. I didn't hear any media reaction, but I did hear the AD stood by him and there wasn't going to be any action taken. Soooo many times it seems folks caught up in what would be a quickly-forgotten story cave in a make a stupid knee-jerk decision.

Nice! What are 'pats'?

Yeah -- piecemeal it. Good thinking, Wayne.

Yeah, that's always the case unless they're selling on consignment with the seller imposing a floor. From their standpoint, they want to move the whole thing at once if they can, and they just may get that done. It's Branson, by gawd -- stranger things have happened! More likely, they'll piecemeal it out though. Most of the materials are pretty unremarkable. If I could hold some of the feathers in my hand -- mebbe. The vice, tools, hooks and suitcase may do better on their own.

Those bobbins are cool.

Mrs. BilletHead, Welcome to the forum and thank you for the BBQ sauce. Hopefully, with your presence here, some of the forum slobs will straighten up a little.

Did anybody else ever notice that Red Sovine's 'Teddy Bear' scenario could get a trucker in a lot of trouble these days? I'm talking like, 'Hello Rubber Ducky, I'm Chris Hansen with NBC news.'

Wrench -- you selling the frogs as a pair, or can I just buy the hen?

Wettinline, Welcome to the stream-of-conciousness, no-holds-barred, argue-with-an-avatar world of internet forums....where you get what you pay for, every time.

...and think a spot or two ahead. Sometimes it makes sense to pass on one spot if it's sure to screw up the next. On a stream like BSC, those two might be just a few feet apart.

Wrench -- that's some of your best work to date. LOL, literally.

I don't know squat about the topic at hand, but common sense tells me that undocumented stocking is certainly a possibility. And, it doesn't take a whole bunch of fish dumped in a stream for them to get a foothold, if the conditions are right. Interesting conversation though. I'm a little confused about the Neosho at this point though. Did we solve that anywhere that I may have missed?

LOL -- I was just sitting here thinking, 'Well, the weekend's almost over and we haven't gotten an update on the teardrop.' Come back here and...

I'll throw this out there again -- I've probably told this here a half dozen times by now. I bought a pair of prescription, polarized, photochromatic sunglasses from Action (now Smith) Optics more than 10 years ago. Glass lenses, Padre frame. I'm on my third pair of frames -- they've replaced them twice, most recently about 6 months ago. Lenses are near pristine because I'm careful: always in a case or always on a lanyard. They are great glasses, fit my huge noggin well, and don't slip. They're not super dark, and lighten as light gets low. They do fog pretty bad -- especially after a night of brown likker -- but I suppose I can't blame the glasses. The prescription is about 3 clicks off now but passable, and I need bifocals now because my arms are too short and my flies are too tiny. About $300 to do it new. Greasy, please stop littering our delicate resources with your el-cheapos

LOL. Been there!

Hey Greasy, try this little DIY project:http://www.fabsugar.com/DIY-Sunglasses-Strap-Video-31108132

Dang.

Thanks TT. Yeah -- it's kinda neat pulling out a pheasant tail from last season and tying up some PT nymphs. We've had a couple more days out, and I haven't fired the gun yet. But I've got in some good time with Max. Gonna sit out the deer rifle seasons and be back at it in a week or two. There ARE birds out there.

Ha! Yeah, and early indications are she's gonna need it -- on 11!

Hah -- no, that must have been after my time.

That's looking pretty cool. I've been noodling over the idea of a small travel trailer too. Just enough to sleep in and maybe carry a little gear. Anxious to see what you come up with.

Actually -- it's Three Sisters.

Didn't think Ike fit in the "roadside attraction" category. BTW Wayne-- I've got a distant relative I only met once who's an avid fly fisherman and lives in Oregon. I believe it's Twin Sisters, named after a mountain? I could Google, but... He was practically begging me to come out and fish.

World's largest Ball of Twine/Prairie Dog/Hand Dug Well. We got them all!
