I want mine on a 5/0 crappie minnow hook. 

          Where can i find one? Send one of yours to me and i will reimburse your purchase price. You all can pick out your lateral line color too. I may have that color. Which one of you wants pink? Yes I have a pink saddle. Want color choices? ,

I just texted Kathy and asked her if she wanted to do a swap with a bunch of guys on the internet. I'll report back here with her response.

       Should we change our Avatar photo? I can't imagine she has seen yours? Gosh for all we know you may wear that hat from time to time? Do you have the glue on beard too?  Good thing Wrench wussed out if she would of seen him in his spider man undies she may of become nauseated although Mrs. BilletHead did not puke ,

So many things wrong with this statement but I'm going to let it go because I am very jealous. Pink is one of my favorite colors but I don't do much fly stuff with it because I don't have a pink saddle.

   It always pays to look into out of the way places and discount bins at fly shops. When I was looking I found a grizzly pink and purple one many years back at the Orvis fly shop  down at Taney. Heavy discounted in a catch all bin. When Carolyn asked what I wanted it for I told her it was for buggers for the girls at casting for recovery. She wouldn't let me by it but gave it to me. I tied many, many flies for the ladies. Not sure any of it is left.  Got to look . Found a couple more all pink at Charlie Readings with old stock price on them. I don't pay premium price for saddles. Especially tiny dry stuff,

Ok, ok. I’ll play. I’ve got a 9 foot 8 weight I’m awfully proud of and like to whip it out when nobody expects it. Hope Phil doesn’t ban me for that. 😄

BTW, Kathy’s answer was, ‘What?’

So, do you guys think this lively banter will attract more participants? Or, should I edit the original post and make it about something topical like Spring is here?

             Good deal I was beginning to worry of what you were sporting . I was also thinking about that great movie quote " I think we are going to need a bigger boat" . I could just see you trying to work with your little (trout 4wt) rod:) . I suppose you could of tried a giant open loop and then on the forward cast there would be no ducking as it would of been a lay down your body flat to avoid getting your head knocked off
