that ROFF is dead or just no one going fishing.
I'm hearing crickets here.
Actually, wondering if I had a role to play in the silence by opening
the Facebook ROFF page.

well, I'm going fishing tomorrow thru Saturday. The Handy one and I may
come back with fish stories.......and, with the weather report intact,
little chance of burnt feet, unless we partake of some sort of
firewalking ritual.

Don't worry about it, Frank. There are several reasons ROFF is nearly
dead. One is the existence of much betters forums like The Drake.
Another is the endless "moronic" ****ing matches.

I'm leaving for the Seychelles tomorrow.

Yeah, you're right. That never happened in the past.

Have fun!

You're being sarcastic, of course.

But it HAS happened in the past. As long as I've followed ROFF, people
have
left in disgust over the rudeness and the ****ing matches. Now that
far better
forums are available (where you can, for example, post photos and
videos),
the trend has reached its sad conclusion.

Tight lines.

Have a great trip, I look forward to the TR...

How are things in Stanley, much snow yet? We got 4 inches last night...

I'm in California at the moment. The weather forecast shows lots of
snow this week in central Idaho.
