if you can find them, seek out Canada Goose primary wing biots...dye
them in any manner you like and see what a difference they make in the
segmented appearance of the body.I think you will like it

Thanks Tom, I'm doing very well, in fact about to hit the five year
all's clear mark here pretty soon. Kind of a milestone in the world of
angiosarcoma's :


when last i saw you (a few weeks ago) on the banks of the madison, you
looked and acted so "well" that it never even crossed my mind that you
had experienced any life-threatening health issues. you were entirely
too well, as was i.g good to know we'll have you around for a good
long while yet - new flies to discover and new streams to wade. there is
something healing and energizing about chasing trout on such waters, eh?
btw, those cdc&elk and the killer caddis i first discovered through
you were magic on the madison and nez perce and... well, you know. did
the salmonfly ever get going strong?

always good to see you harry - here and elsewhere.
