No kidding, It was an investment. We see things we should of done in the past then say if I would of only. You did 😉.

I do really do. That trip is on here somewhere.

No kidding it's got crazy! We still fish trout it fills a niche I need to itch once, and awhile plus picky trout sharpen your skills. There are all kinds of fish to chase where we live but it's warm water. Recent stocker trout are pretty stupid and taken out quickly. There are some that finally go feral and picky. Funny we match out wits with something that has a teeny tiny brain. They come up to check out offering then we witness a refusal. Stupid fish or stupid fisherman?

How I miss my fishing buddy Richard Mac Button. Was a member here for a while.

You forgot something, Red Green

When you fall into a honey pot like this again I want in 🤪

Yes, they do. Amazon.com : Umpqua Tiemco Fly Tying Hooks TMC 2499Sp-Bl (100Pk) 14 : Fishing Hooks : Sports & Outdoors

Whatever works! Match the hatch, pellets are natural to hatchery fish. Fishing is about having fun.

Yes, they will. I have also done some in primrose and pearl, pink, red and of course in zebra midge colors. Thought about tan. What colors are we missing?

Another thing, I bought these hooks many moons ago. I just checked the current price. Oof 55+ bucks a hundred. 😵‍💫

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.
