At 5:00 am this morning, I took stock of the weekend, and am hereby invoking my rights to claiming a bit of "predictions wiggle-room." Much was done, only not in the order planned...

Re: The Ultimate "FITW" Trout Flies Assortment

I've added a few more flies to the "FITW" mix and made an adjustment or two, along with the possible inclusion of one of my infamous "suprises" included with the occasional package. Nope... no...

Re: The "Boxed Flat-50 Flies Special" Plus 13

Re: I Met Myself Last Night...

The morning check of the journals came in the pre-dawn hours before first light today, and they're quickly becoming eligible for "duty INSIDE the home front." The musty smell is dissipating nicely,...
