You couldn't have been lurking on roff much longer than that.
roff was spun off of rec.outdoors.fishing in May of '94. Quite
a few fly fishermen posted on that group before 1994.

According to Google I first posted to roff on May 19, 1994.

Ken, I found this message that I saved to my R.O.F.F. folder. It seems
to show that ROFF was in existence by 27 October, 1999:

That was great... Neat to see all the faces behind the names. You guys
all look like you had a lot of fun. I noticed that no one was wearing any
neoprene... Does that mean that the water was not that cold?

Michael,

Water was in the low to mid-50's, depending on which stream. Not speaking for
myself, most ball'sters had anti-freeze in their systems.

Well, that would in fact be *after* May 1994...

You conservatives are depressingly optimistic. The reason I check
into ROFF almost hourly is to verify its (and my?) continuing existence,
but I make no assumptions about tomorrow.....

OBROFF: went fishing again on the Crooked River yesterday, but have no
report to offer (they're starting to have much of a muchness to them
anyway: went, did or didn't catch fish, it was this or that temp, the
water was at this or that level, the hatch was or wasn't strong.....)
Will post another report if I visit a different river or if something
remarkable happens or presents itself to mind. One good thing at least:
the dam upon which the fishery depends these days still stands, and
here's a touristy pic from the top of it:

Especially during this time of year, I appreciate each and every TR.
Maybe it goes hand in hand with that optimism. My back is getting better
by the day (just some out-of-shape old age thingies creeping up) and I
can't wait til I can author some more of my own. I'll just bet you all
can't wait til then either. ;-)

I'd better have my eyes checked. I read that as "May of '04."
