TR: I love the sound of a Hardy in the Morning - a little wordy

I've forgotten what it's like to tie on big flies since moving out west.
Last trout I hooked on top was with a size 24 midge on California's Hot
Creek.

Tell me about it, except for a couple of fish on a bunny leech at the juan,
i've not hooked a trout in the three states I've fished west of the
Mississippi and anything bigger than a 20.

I need to sneak in a trip back to Michigan one of these days.

Just tell me when.

There's *nothing* in flyfishing like the sweet purr of a Hardy. I have an
LRH; a JLH; and my newest...a Bougle. The Bougle was purring on big
Missouri
River Bows...gotta love those reels. The Abels stayed in the van most of
that trip.


There's actually been people who have posted here complaining about the
"noise" Hardy and other similar reels make. Poor misquided souls.
Love those Bougle's and JLH's. There's a new grass stick in my future and I
think I'm going to put one of the Angel's on it.

Great report, Wayne. I'm headed up that direction at dark-thirty tomorrow

Oh, and many happy returns!


thanks Bill, have a great trip and remember to keep the week after Father's
day free next year.

45 to 46 stings? And you need a new hip? I'm ****ed, then.

For me it stings anyway but I'll get over it. Problem is I not only need a
new hip but I also need a new knee on the same side and we can't decide
which to do first. That and I still have some mobility, just not much
endurance. Motrin is a wonderful thing.

Thursdays my big 45-to-46 day.

For some reason I pegged you as younger. Between you and Mr. Reid, I might
as well be 65 next to you two.

Happy Birthday.

I ain't one that complains, and none of my Hardys "purr"...
