How goes, other than the eyes, of course. Fighting macular degeneration on my own. Hope all goes well. I do like droppers, but I don't pre-rig them. It would be nice, but I've never found a way to carry them smartly in my vest. Frank Reid |

Things could be worse, I have lost a lot of weight (32 lbs), and I have been exercising some. I tore a retina and a skilled surgeon, who was about 19 years old I would guess, tacked it back up and my vision is better than it was when I went to the hospital. I still can't see well enough to tie flies on while standing in a stream at dusk but other than that, I be above ground. I worked with a lad with macular degeneration and he had to have magnifying glasses for everything and a giant and I mean giant monitor on his computer. He did pretty well, and I hope you are doing well too. Padishar Creel |

Does really suck at dusk, trying to tie on a fly. Thats why my only evening fishing is for the Green Drake hatch. Hell, those are big enough to feed the collective ROFF ego. So, who's husband punched you in the eye? :-) Frank Reid |

Frank Reid Indian Joe offers----sounds like the aarp of fishing needs some advice--I tie a dropper on a dry fly with about 12 inch of leader then stick all into a 35mm film can. When I get bo red of fishless casting I break it out and attach to leader. Pretty soon the whole mess gets tangled or I catch another tree. If the damm fish won't just take my plain old yellow humpy he can just go hungry. But it all beats the hell out of sitting home and worrying about which nursing home receives my deposit! |
