We once again set down at the vices this morning. Let's see how Pat did downsizing a bit. Today we did thread midges. Rusty and olive. Hook TMC 2499 SP-BL. Wicked sharp and barbless with a wide gap. Yes you might loose a fish or two if you let your line go loose but in the net with one flop of the fish they unhook themselves. Size 14 but make your midge like an 18. Fish could care less about the hook if they are biting they a focused on the midge. Pat got a bit long on the midge size but so do I at times. She feels cross-eyed right now.

Hey buddy make the call on fly theme. This is your rodeo. If it is something I can get Pat started with she might be interested in trying.

No,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no This is serious stuff you don't play with your fly rods! 😁

Sure why not 😄.

😆

It is? Do tell 😀

Pat and I were up at five every morning. Since you and others sleep in the community kitchen, we did not want to wake you party animals up LOL.

This I love, breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Yum!

We missed you Daryk but thanks for keeping your feeling bad to yourself.

I too like the variety.

And remember some of us are 20 plus older than you kids. So respect your elders and eat like @Terriermansays. 😆

@gotmuddy, Don't feel too bad. We were sitting in the flower bed swing enjoying the sun. I exited it to check out the bees working in and out of the hives. The swing stopped squeaking. This is what I seen 😂. Taney fest can take it's toll.

Easy fix, use earplugs you won't have to hear noisy vacuum or wife 😉.

Another one is in the books, Old friendships just get stronger and new ones were made. I don't think I will really need to eat anything for a week being full of all the food there. Everyone did an amazing job bringing food an cooking. FFFF, friendship, fellowship,food and fishing Pat and I feel this is the order it should be in. Lodging is the best looking off the back of our unit and covered deck we gaze over the dock and lake. Out the front door last night I see Venus getting closer to the moon. Found out this morning this is called Venus kissing the moon. Leaving was sad but we have already made reservations for next year.

Thank you so very much.

And it was cheap, actually found it on steap and cheap. Great boat net and when we do reeling and healing it helps to do long distance nets because some of those participants have never fly fished or even fished before. Those fellas need that grip and grin snapshot.

Yes Pat and I watched you guys! Then we found a few with the fly rods. Fun.

Beautiful blushing on that bird RPS.

It has begun. VID_20250130_183838173.mp4
