Thank you, Alan Di Somma Phoenix, It's Arpaiolicious!" How come it takes so little time for a child that is afraid of the dark to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night? ----- Original Message ----- From: jim phillips To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, August 24, 2009 8:17 PM Subject: FW: [VFB] Re: Fly of the week FROM MARK May your GOD be your fishing partner. Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2009 20:39:25 -0600 WES, where ya been lately?????????? Good to see you here. BOY, you just gotta love MoHair. Misako and i had a terriffic day today on the White..........we started at the dam at 8 a.m. and killed 'em.........we were with Chad (from Mt. River fly shop), and hois wife and Bill Thorn the local TU Chapter President. Chad and Bill were catchin' fish on every or every other cast. Misa and i did well too, and Chad's wife got a fair number as well. She did also however, fall in, twice. Then we all went to our house for lunch, Then we moved over to Cotter and Misa and Tiffinay had a casting lesson while we fished a few more hours. If any of us had caught a Brookie, we'da had a grand slam, because we had all, already caught Bows, Browns and Cutts. My total for the day was approximately a couple dozen Bows, two Browns and bout a half dozen Cutts. Chad and Bill both lost count before we ever had lunch. Misa had maybe 20 or so Bows. Numbers matter not to me, but it was such a successful day..........the White is stupid good when the water if off. The fish are just stacked up like cord wood. i easily lost 50 fish today for whatever reason or the other. BIG FUN! Some we're virtually at hand but popped off at the last minute. I try my best not to touch any fish if i can get the hook out without doin' so. It was a day none of us will ever forget. When they came over for lunch, they were litterally speechless when i took 'em downstairs for the tour, lmao. Misa's luch was REDICKALUS!..........Chicken Breast, Smoked Ham, Salmon, Spinich, Radishes, Cucumber, Tomatoe, Italian Bread, Avacado, Cellery sticks, Potatoe salad, Onion, Olives, OJ, Beer, and bottled water.........OH YEAH! Just another day in Paradise................. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2009 08:39:26 -0700 Subject: [VFB] Re: Fly of the week From: wada....@gmail.com To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Here's a contribution. I call it a BC Leech, a variation of a Phil Rowley (British Columbia) tie. Materials are Canadian brown mohair yarn, peacock herl and sword feathers and pheasant rump. Best fish to date caught on the fly was a 17-1/2" Eastern Brook trout at Central Oregon's Hosmer Lake.
