Re: [VFB] Jody Update
Jody had the fatty tumor removed yesterday afternoon. Easy operation, did it right in the Doc's office It was incapsulated, or free-floating and not fastened anywhere. I think it's what they call a benign lipoma. The doc is having it checked anyway to see if there's any malignancy. Thanks for your continued prayers. I'll keep you posted. JIMMY D What great news! Prayers continue for a clean bill of health. We're still on pins and needles here. The MRI session will start in about an hour and we should hear results in about 3 hours. a. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

Like the CO-OP swap, the meister buys the pelt, photos it, and cuts it up to divide amongst the swappers, who send in their share + SH. Buys range from dirt-cheap to taxidermy quality, many animals listed (dubbing quality critters), and 3 pieces would be enough dubbing to last a very long time. The numbers can be set by the meister and swappers. (If you want half a pelt, find one more swapper.) But a simple swap could go like this: (Just a suggestion of an easy typical swap) So you'd get a chunk of tail, some dense back, off-color thinner belly. #1 2 swappers would want the mask for bushy flies.

RE: [VFB] Finding hooks and backing for Fly boxes
Anessa started tying when she was about 8, but rode on my shoulders when I when fly-fishing at a very young age (around 2). (The shoulder fly-fishing was probably not the smartest thing, but we each enjoyed it.) Every so often Anessa has friends over that she tries to teach how to tie. It is fun to watch a bunch of 12-15 year old girls try to tie. She is now planning to start teaching her friends how to Fly-fish. Your granddaughters will enjoy it a lot if you give them a lot of freedom. Jim ´¯'·.¸¸..º.·´¯'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸º¸.·´¯'·.¸. ,. ´¯'·.¸¸..º.·´¯'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸º¸.·´¯'·.¸. ,.

To answer some of the questions; Off the Hook Fly Shop is a great shop with a good owner. I was hoping to buy maybe 50 to 100 hooks at a time. When we get to tying we could go thought that many hooks in a day. Some of our tying look good and some of them look like Andy Warhol was giving us tying direction, but we have fun and that is what matters. The backing you suggested I am sure going to look into. I am not looking for low quality hooks, I just want to buy some good quality hooks in a larger amount, hopefully making them cost a little less each. In regards to storing, sometimes we make a large amount, more than we would even use, I like to store the extra away hoping when she get older she can look back to what she did and what phase she was in, at one time she only did purple. It currently brings back memories for me when I look at them (I think our oldest are from 2007, she would have been 10 then). I use to use a box by Scientific Anglers, I use to find them on sale now and then for around $10 to $20. Now they are running $39.95 plus 6 inserts at $15.95 each, That is way to much for me. I am looking to make some storage boxes using some 1 x 12 x 12 slide cases. I always look for the swaps, I do not know how I missed the hook-swap. I also try and watch for the fly swap, but by the time I getting to reading my e-mails it always look like it is full. I am retiring on 11/30, hopefully after that I can read my e-mails on a timely basis and can join in some swaps. I never been to a Sportsman's warehouse, I will need to find one. Thank you for the suggestions of the caring boxes, a friend dropped by about 30 tin boxes the local store gave him, so I am set there for a while. Thank you for the help and great ideas.

Re: [VFB] Some pictures of the net I built
Nice net! Will you sell those on the net? What should be your net profit? I had to fix mine- had network difficulties. Buggs.net - Original Message - From: Jim Forshey To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, September 23, 2010 10:20 PM Subject: [VFB] Some pictures of the net I built I hope you like the pictures. (I hope this is also ok to send to the group.) I finally finished the net I was building, I sure learned a lot while building it. One thing was to not take to long to finish building it, I forgot a lot along the way and I am sure I will make some of the same mistakes on the next one. Now to complete the Bamboo Rod. I would like to thank all of you for your help over the years, I always enjoy reading your e-mails and seeing your pictures even though I have very seldom posted over the years.. Now that I am retiring on 11/30, I will get to fly-fish a lot more often and hopefully post more often to the group.
