[VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY
Fish are, of course, indispensable to the angler. They give him an excuse for fishing and justify the fly rod without which he would be a mere vagrant. But the average fisherman's average catch doesn't even begin to justify, as fish, its cost in work, time, and money. The true worth of fishing, as the experienced, sophisticated angler comes to realize, lies in the memorable contacts with people and other living creatures, scenes and places, and living waters great and small which it provides.

Re: [VFB] Sometimes my job has some bennies
Love that entire area. We did the other side of the Canyon about 3 years ago. Had a huge Bull Elk bed down next to our neighbors tent the only one we saw that wasn't feet up on the side of the road. Only other elk we saw were in Texas and had tags in their ears.

Re: [VFB] Help needed. Fly-tying classes
Bob, Let'em learn like I did- no vise, tools, tying supplies, or instruction. Give them some road-kill parts- feathers and furs, and some photos of finished flies with the basic sequences. Might sound like I being facetious, but in actually, they'll always appreciate for the rest of their tying days having the right materials and tools once they get them. I know this won't happen, but it would do them good and teach them how important dexterity is. Beginning tiers today take for granted the incredible array of materials, tools, and training available, and I think the lack of all of that to start would enhance the appreciation once the good stuff in incorporated. From Thompson A vices and Chinese necks to Renzetti's and Whiting super-saddles- everything has come so far.

Re: [VFB] Help needed.
When I started my community ed classes at a local high school I got the tool s from Cascade Crest, they have some nice basic tools that have lasted 3 seasons. For the vises I use Regal vises, they are made less than 100 miles from me and the class location. The town I teach in is very big on buying local, carbon footprint watching and all that, also helps that is is higher income for the area.
