"I sure will. The baetis wet fly is a size 18 and the cicada is a size 8. Although I tied them for trout they also catch panfish. IMG_3181%20%281%29.MOV Cicada%202025.mov"

HOW TO

A place to put explicit details of how to. Like how to remove a hook from your buddy's ear, or how to put a cricket on a hook.

Trying to reclaim the womanly office to turn it into a man cave to get my flyfishing going again. Wife is done with her schooling now and she wants to break out her black beauty you gave her for the fishing fun. The entire family is also gearing up our bows for bowfishing as well to get out of this crazy isolation nightmare.

How are you and supervisor Jane doing over there?

OWED TO DOUG PUSS ASS PIERCE ....

WELL MY OLD BUDDY IS FINALLY GONE... I don't know what exactly he died of but surmise it was his diabetes....Of course his wife never notified me of his passing and I'm really mad about that.

Oh well DOUG had a great life filled with fishing and messing around .... he always owned a boat and we went many places fishing.

Down to Olney Illinois for one and we worrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre that place out .....we caught mmmmmmany gills and crappies down there over a 25 year…

"LEO'S TRIBUTE "

WELL DON'T KNOW WERE TO START A TRIBUTE TO LEO , and his family , for his efforts on here but I'll try in my own fashion:

When I first came to this site it was my pleasure to become friends with Dick Tabbert , Leo , and so many others on here just too numerous to mention.

BUT LETS' PUT THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE : WHO IS LEO ? VERY COMPLEX QUESTION with a short and simple answer. He's one of the most giving of time, knowledge , and expert advise , on the site period. If I am…
