kind of self-explanatory, right? We seem to have some impressive thread-wrappers that lurk around this board. let's try to keep your "first booger" posts at a minimum.

Conversation with CE when fishing a few weeks ago:
GB: There are some serious fly ties in that stone swap so far.
CE: I'm not tying any fancy shit. I'm tying rubber legs.
GB: I like rubber legs.
CE: I'd be just fine getting a dozen rubber legs.
GB: Where's that bowl?
CE: What?
GB: I'm not sure rubber legs are going to cut it for some of these fancy pants fly tie tiers. Damn.
CE: Fuck it. I'm tying rubber legs.
You have all been forewarned…

Messing around a bit. Guess I have Landoland on the brain. #8 and full of lead. WY fish don't care about fancy. They just want food.
Not my swap fly but I'm pretty sure this would catch fish.

Landoland fish will eat that for sure!

I need an address so I can ship my flies out. Please PM the information.

I haven't the right materials. nor the time. nor the patience.
I've picked the wrong week to give up the weed.
if anyone wants these hooks and one poorly tied stoopid looking fly send me a pm.
if I've ruined my invite for the east coast I totally understand. like totally.
sorry.
I must've been jrunk.
I've lost my passion for tying flies. fuck it.
fuck it all to hell.
I know. I'm an asshole.
we'll always have buffalo, sweet josh.

I can pick you up if needed.....I can knock out a dozen of those bonus flies I sent Greenback.

Awful generous of you to pick up the Austrian's slack.
With Mitch out, we're down to 12. I have only received flies from 4 of you so if the rest of you want to adjust accordingly, that works.
However, if everyone has already tied a dozen, and Lando can really pull off cranking out another dozen, we can stick with everyone sending me a dozen.
Please cast your vote.

I mailed in twelve today. Tied thirty, picked out the twelve "best" and off they went. Coozie, tags, return postage, check.
Just need to knock out fifty more midges for Jerms. And another fifty for my trip to Aguirre country before next Friday.
That sounds awesome in my ears!! (P-A)
we were basking in goodness here with our everyday drivel that we enjoy.... the rest of this is horseshit, flybug.pa.
