_____ There are some pretty cool, inspirational fly-fishing endorsements in this thread. Finally, I decide to take the pressure off and reel for all I'm worth. Yes, the line is slack. Using a thumb and index finger on the forward portion of the line and the pinky finger (maybe folded down toward the...

_____ It's easy to get culture-bound on our culinary practices . . . you know, just do what we think we know. Fortunately, using threads like this, it's pretty easy to get unbound, too. For lunch, I've done a version of the head stew using tomatoes, homegrown thyme (freeze-tolerant plant, which is m...

Just ate, and grilled oysters still make me salivate.

_____ The OP may take pride that this thread is one of the top search returns for "catfish head soup". For folks who make and/or use stocks (and you probably should for the tastiest soups and stews) getting flavour from bones and scraps, this doesn't seem like much of a stretch. Using as m...

Was the fat one jammed with shad?

Is this a tall-profile baitfish pattern?

Does the fly have another or more specific name? (Not having any luck searching.)

Comfort food with character. Freshwater drum (Aplodinotus grunniens) aka gaspergou could also star in this soup.

Thanks for posting.

That one looks especially fishy.

. . . "in-your-face" smackdown by a rainbow trout . . .

Not exactly a gentle sip, was it.

Nice pattern. Have you tried or thought about tying it on a jig hook for a more bottom-friendly version?

Even I might be able to get a cast to reach those.

Well, how did the bobtail shrimp work? Any luck with the pompano? Check out this combo being used in Florida: http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c372/SnookMook/DocsJigWeb.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c372/SnookMook/PompJig-1.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c372/SnookMook/snapjig.jpg So...

Nice, subtle fly. How about a quick step-by-step?

Also, what's your favourite snook recipe?

How about Eagle Claw 413s? Too short for 4X applicaitons, I guess.

You fooled me I expected something else when I saw the title

False advertising. Should've read, "''pon."

Pretty stuff, all around.

I'll take that steak medium raw.

. . . Naiser Slider. Deer hair around the lead eyes . . . Very interesting. Any chance you could put up a link or a recipe? A quick Google search didn't turn up tying steps or even another photo. I recently asked a question (on a tying forum) about spinning deer hair around dumbbell eyes, and every...

Pretty.

Does hook-point-down bother you in the grass? Wonder if there's a way to invert it without adding weight? Bendback?
