 Nice selection Steve! Makes me think it's about time for another flyswap :)

 I went out Sat morning then the wind came up by 9am and sent me home, Sunday was a complete blowout 15-20mph winds with gust to 25. Even my lil pond outback had Whitecaps on it! Stayed in and tied up a few foam bugs.

Thanks for the photos, Steve.  I'm going to imitate some of them.

Too bloody windy today so I made some more bugs

Unfortunately, there's no FAQs section yet. However, the question has been answered in the past. I'm requesting the admins of the group to create an FAQs section to answer these common inquiries with detailed step-by-step, with pictures.

Here are some instructional approaches:

I am still looking for the FAQ.

Comment by Leo Nguyen on March 2, 2013 at 11:20am

Ray, if you still need help with posting photos and videos, let us know. We'll be glad to teach you how. It's not complicated, but it's a very small learning curve that you just have to put up until you get used to it.

I will take a look. Thanks

Looks like you did a great job in figuring out how to post photos. We need an FAQs section on the far right to instruct members on how to upload and post things, with easy step-by-step.

Trying to figure out how to post a pic.
