Somebody in the Old North State is showing his age.

When it comes to getting down in the 21st century substitute
Bono for Dylan and thongs are *not* optional.

Amazingly enough, the geezer remembers the rest.

With the exception instead of an attraction for Bocelli, my current
version has matched or bettered that criteria for the past 31 years.
Allows me the luxury of spending time on flies.

BTW, I'll take cooking ability over choice of underwear any day.

With a spouse that loves exploring gustatorial delights, every day is a
surprise. On the other hand, other than the days of the week embroidery,
the thong remains the same.
I would like to try the fly. I was actually looking for your page tonight
as I find that my choice of streamers in my box is almost nil. Could you
post the link again?

Agree wholeheartedly -- just finsihed a BBQ coho salmon steak with
garlic rice and a nice muscat to wash it down.

I blew it away. It was dated and I didn't have the energy or the
inclination to finish its replacement. Let me know what you're
looking for and I'll email you what I have left.

Going back to Tom's post, these streamers I'm working on will be in
two sizes: steelhead and resident trout. I'd like to send a few of
the trout versions off to the Penns crew so they can test drive them
in the spring. Some will be based on the weamer pattern while I'm
working on another style to use for the dace/chub/sculpin class of
baitfish.

For the Sculpin pattern, I'm looking at using a small Wilson or Salar
double turned up to avoid snagging when run deep. I'm aiming for a
weight balance that'll enable it to swim well and still get down.


Ever looked into keel flies? There's a book, "Fishing the Impossible
Places" and I suspect some info on the web.

Wow, if that says what I think it says, someone is well over the hill.

I can cook up a gustatory delight for myself any day of the week, and
get a few suprises to boot (made a butterflied pork fillet spread with
apple-onion-parmesean paste, baked at 375 for 15 minutes last night).
But a thing in a thong set my heart soaring, years on end. I
perpetually live in the state of an amazed youth with his first car or
first apartment, wondering if its really all for him!

Don't have those HTML docs anymore on this 'puter but I think I may
have a backup copy at my office -- I'm back there Friday and I'll
check.
