Maryland C&R trout waters - book...awesome!
Picked up a copy of Larry Coburns book on Maryland C&R Trout streams this
weekend...A lot of good information and some patterns that i'll definately be tying and using on the local waters here...Wen't to the Orvis store in Frederick on Saturday while running around and picked up some tying supplies. Is it me or are they more expensive than most places? I was pricing the flies and all seemed to be $1.95 or more...They didn't have the (specific) one that I was looking for so I just got some dubbing, led wire, thread and the book. Picked the shop guys brain for a minute. Nice guy, rattled it off with no problem. Nice shop too...very clean. |
That is a very good book. I picked mine up last year at Bass Pro and
Larry signed it. The Orvis stuff is almost always a little more expensive. |
What a beautiful thread.

Sorry, how many reviews do you read that talk only of the good side of the
item being reviewed? Was just making a "****kin" comment about how it seems that the store (in general) seems to be more expensive than other fly shops I have been to...You must be the list aggravator I presume, or is this one a special one-off? Nothing priceless there. Just a failure to comprehend plain English... Nice reply...Really makes newbies want to interact with the list! Thanks, Anthony "TBone" wrote in message ups.com...

And besides, if Anthony doesn't want to "interact with the list" I'd say the job was already done and done well. ;-) Thanks for the opportunity to learn about the negative side of ROFF. As for interacting with the group or whatever you would like to call it, that I will still do, with you?..Probably not. Grow-up! F.Y.I., the above job wasn't "done" at all...you (nor anyone else for that matter) have failed to "excoriate" me...only wasted this entire string on your ignorance and ability to butcher the English language ("done well"). Why don't you shrink your head and use it as a paperweight? It's not much use for writing intelligent posts with, that's for sure. You're just another Internet-addicted idiot suffering from diarrhea of the mouth and constipation of the mind. You've got a big hole in your head, now shut it. When you are at a loss for words, your loss is ROFF's gain. Martin Luther King Jr. once said "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than a sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time-uh! ~ Monty Python Can't we all just get-along? . Jeez...Back to angling, not the newbie-bashing. Anthony |

Always wanted to be called that! Get a clue yourself...Stupid...the only reason why we haven't gotten along is due to you're idiotic arrogance and ignorant comments. I have tried to end this and you just keep poking and prodding so, this is a clue*****I will bow out*****this is a clue and give to you the satisfaction that you so obviously desire (for whatever strange reason). Just keep in mind, that you haven't accomplished anything but to make yourself a little more tired and old wasting time making asumptions about someone you know nothing about. All the while, losing the respect of the people around you. Bet you don't care either, right? Ignorance is bliss isn't it?!? So, keep up the handy work there Ken Fortenberry and whomever else it was that started the flame war. You sadly, weren't the origional smart-ass but, you decided to jump in the fire and join in on the brawl...Way to go, yer cool! Betcha that'll be a good story to tell you'r buddies? Har har har! You couldn't understand the concept of common decency if it came up and bit you in the ass, and then told you "I'm common decency", or you would have never jumped in on this one, and let it end, so thanks for kicking someone when they're down. Chalk one up for Ken! Yeah! The entertainment is over. |

And besides, if Anthony doesn't want to "interact with the list" I'd say the job was already done and done well. ;-) I don't mind top posting, especially from people who've never learned the corollary to bottom posting, which is _editing_. Please, lord, give me a top poster over a bottom poster who replicates two screens worth of scrolling and finishes with the equivalent of, "Good post." or "Me, too." And it depends on the clueless newbbie. I even let the collier whatsit post several times before realizing I had to jump up and down on him. This one would be extra tough, as I the newbbie didn't post anything that I noticed as being worthy of attention. I gather, from the responses, that he thought either Jonas' or Walt's shop was too expensive for his taste. While that may be a solecism to their buddies, this guy has never fished with them or dealt with them before, so why should he have to play by buddy rules? Cyli r.bc: vixen. Minnow goddess.

As luck would have it, I seem to have an opening on my calendar right now. my advise is to chill, and understand that you are not hooking up to reality when you hook up to r.o.f.f.... Methinks the evidence is clear enough.......brother Anthony has a very short fuse and not much bang at the end of it. Advice (even such as is worth what he is paying for it, let alone the sterling example above) is wasted on one whose tenure here is likely to be no more notable than the broadside he recently delivered. He'll be missed though. It's always fun to watch hapless newbies beat up on gonfalon Kennie, who, if wits were gasoline........ Wolfgang dang, that was damn good zinger line! :) |

No foul Anthony. I'm just a middle aged ******* trying to lose the
black dog behind me like everyone else on this list. OBROFF: Guys, it really does lighten my heart to see you still lurking this undercut. I miss you and think of you fondly and often. It is still a dream to fish the tarheel state with wayno, walt and company. Forty - I fish with that rod often, Jon/Willi/Rusty, I'm hoping to have a kitchen pass this summer. I've wasted the past two chasing the almighty dollar (which I did not find), though I've been on 3 extended trips to israel, for whatever that is worth. I did stand on the banks of the Sea of Galilee and look into its waters, trying to see a fish to catch and realizing how quickly and definitively I would sink, had I stepped in. As bizarre as this is, I did have a superb trout dinner at Dag al Hadan, in the north near the Lebanise border. The Dan has stocked rainbow trout in it and you order and eat them from a massive outdoor restaurant on picnic tables along the creek. The roof is massive netting (like that which you would hide tanks from airplanes). Surreal as hell. I did see The Ancient Mariner in a chair in Acre and wondered what it would be like to ****-it-all and buy a wooden boat there (the local boat was a cool dory) and slowy fade away hand-lining the waters of the med. Around here, I did manage to get a pass to Ralph Price (a water supply reservoir above longmont, 600 permits issued a year) and I just bought an english 2 handed bamboo rod from Ebay that should arrive any day. It's probably a piece of **** from what I paid for it. Your pal, TBone bearsbuddy wrote: Give'em hell Kenny!
