<p> Here's a humorous anecdote from John Gierach in his book ' No shortage of Good Days': " I remember hanging out in a slightly tweedy fly shop one afternoon where the owner was promoting the first generation of powdered desiccant used as a fly floatant .A young hippie friend of mine walked in-complete with long hair and Tie dyed T shirt-and the owner asked, "Have you been using the magic powder?" The guy said," Yeah man , but not when I'm fishing ! "</p>

When I made a skeptical face , he showed me the flippers. He still had them behind the seat of his pickup"</p> Field and Stream Magazinestag:bigbluegill.ning.com,2014-11-01:2036984:Topic:5623172014-11-01T23:33:50.558ZDavid, aka, "McScruff"https://bigbluegill.ning.com/profile/david553
