The group is still here, it's just that no one is talking much. How about an account of what happened to you in your last tournament?

Frankly Stevo, it's very tough to get motivated to sit down & type for an
hour when I see about 5 posts a week here lately. I sat down to type my story, but when I saw how unactive this group has been lately I decided my time was better spent on other things. Heck, it's not even winter most places yet, it would be nice to see some signs of life & some pertinent content on rofb. jmho Warren "Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers" wrote in message ...

Warren, from the strictly amateur perspective up here in MI, fishing is just
crap right now. Not much to report at all. We have mix of rain and snow this morning, 40 degrees and winds predicted at gusts of 50 mph for later today. In the past three weeks, I have thrown just about everything I own into the water and have caught almost nothing. I hear the steelheads are running very nice on the westerm MI rivers, but I don't have enough confidence in my awful flyfishing abilites to go after them. I am thinking about going to fly school next spring so I can take advantage of these opportunities when the bass are down for the count. Outside of the obvious Orvis shools, any advice or recommendations on fly fishing instruction in this area would be greatly appreciated. Meanwhile, I am hoping for a cold winter with thick ice so I can be productive again. "WARREN WOLK" wrote in message news:ngL0h.1690$OK3.866@trndny09...

Go buy a basic fly rod setup, get a video on flycasting and go into the back yard and practice! I figured it out on my own, and while no one is going to film me casting for a remake of A River Runs Through It, I can manage to get a fly laid out a reasonalbe distance. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

Warren, I don't see my last post, so I'll try again. You might want to
check with your provider, 'cause Google shows 377 posts so far this month. While that isn't a lot, it is a lot more than 5 per week, and it's up considerably from this month last year. If you don't reply to this I'll assume you didn't see it and try email. I haven't posted much because my wife is ill and I've only had one trip since July. I'll make an effort to post about it since people are starved for info.
