I agree..and sad to say, I, like others, am getting older and not fishing nor tying as much. However, this list is the first thing I read in the morning, and usually the last I read at night, so I am still very dependent on learning more from those who know so much more about fishing and tying than I do. And..I love the recipes for food, the patterns, the fishing reports, and am always happy to add prayers for those who are on this list and those they love. Keep it coming. Joyc
