Hi Dave,

I had no idea that was what you were complaining about. I thought
you were thinking I was trying to create new names for things
that were already named.

The " is to keep me off of spam lists. And, remember
that although this groups only has a couple or three psychopaths
on it, that the contents of this group show up on the entire web,
where there are a lot of psychopaths. Here is a link to what
you risk by posting your full identity on the web:

http://thedeadkidsofmyspace.com/

For instance, in another posting in this tread, you let us
all know you live in Massachusetts and own a house in George.
(You are probably safe with just that disclosure.)

Mainly, I don't want any more spam.

If you would like me to contact me, just post to this
group and say: "Ping Todd". I check it about four time
a week. I can not resist fishing stories. (I avoid the
political stuff -- get way too nasty and have nothing
to do with fishing. There are other groups for politics.)

It beats the **** out of war-mongering and a desire to torture anyone who

Happy nightmares Davie.

Have you ever made it for 24 hours?

Yeah. I'm friends with Smith and Wesson, and have a big friend called
Browning.

Have you tried it with saltines. It was a life safer in the jungle,
let me tell you. Didn't need to take salt tablets with that stuff
around. Sheeesh.

Ok. If I want to contact you, I'll just reach out and touch you. teehee.

I check it about four time

Oh, good. I'll be here.

I can not resist fishing stories.

Didja hear the one about the rabbi, priest, and Methodist minister that
went fishing? Well, it seems.............. oh, I'll have to save that
for another day.

(I avoid the

Yeah. It's meant to work that way. Doesn't always work, though.

There are other groups for politics.)

Can't disagree there. d;o)

Just out of curiosity, is this the same way you would fish a Muddler?


Pretty much, except when I don't. I find that (at least when I get
started) I'm a creature of habit. If it worked the last time or works
most of the time, that's what I start out doing.. After a while though I
get bored. And it doesn't matter if I'm catching trout or not. I just
need to do something different after a while.

Heh.

A few years ago I was fishing one of my favorite streams in Idaho (which
SHALL remain nameless) and getting plenty of action with west slope
cut-throat. This was like 3 hours into the day and I'd already brought
in excess of 20 trout to hand, so I was not trying something different
out of desperation.

Anyway, I decided what the hell and put on a #10 Acardo Round Dinny
popper (in orange). Now, west slopes are not downstream ivy league fish
concerned about 'nuance' anyway, but it was amazing to watch them slash
at that popper. I'd caught 3 with it and missed a bunch in the first few
minutes.... and then I hooked a really big one.

Yep, it was big. When I got the fish in a little closer it turned out to
be a Bull Trout. Not a real big bull trout at around 20 inches, but a
Bull Trout.

Which, as everyone knows, are not surface feeders.

So, I took a picture of the fish when I got it into shallow water
(popper stuck in it's lips) for proof, managed to extract the popper
without touching it and shooed it back into deeper water where it should
have stayed in the first place.

Silly char, poppers are for trout.
