Lefty Kreh, Flip Pallot, Ed Joworsky, Keith Fulsher & Charlie Krumb, Warren Duncan, and more. Misa and i would always make as many of those every winter, as we could. We took clases with most of those guys and others, and then i started tyin' there when Ramsey's would have a tyin' show in the winter time. Do you remember a guy named John Roetman? He runs the fly fishing part of the store. And he tyes at the CFFC&M one or two Sat's. during "the season."

It has it's own Riverkeeper, and has been turned into quite a resource for anglers, and an economic windfall for the area.

I used to hunt wild fowl and rabbits in the Meadowlands when we used to call it " Secaucus Swamp" There was a pig farm close by and the smell would just about know you over. They even say that Jimmy Hoffa was burried there......

One of my favorite Cabelas is in Mitchell, South Dakota on I-90 on the way to Montana. Great place to stop and rest for a while......usually after having left that morning from somewhere just inside the Minnasota line comming from maybe somewhere in Ohio the previous morning.........i guess those days are over though. Cause i'll prolly never head to Montana from N.Y. anymore. The newest and biggest (to be) Cabelas is being built in the Meadowlands (N.J.) complex, where the N.Y. Giants and N.Y. Jets play. > Subject: [VFB] Re: Duh, what do you call this thing? > To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com > From: glw...@gundluth.org > Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2009 07:35:49 -0500 > > > I live about an hour's drive from the Cabela's store in Prairie Du Chein, > WI.
