Dr. D is a master in Buggs' mind, but he doesn't think much of what I
tie. And as 'crusty' as Rico is, he doesn't believe in scented
flies. You'll never know if your tying or fly is any good at all if
they're biting on smell. In the past, fisherman used to soak yarn in
worm slime or fish guts and fish with that wrapped around a hook- maybe they
still do. It would qualify as a fly of sorts, but it's not really
flyfishing. What's that? No, Buggs. Just 'cause my tying
'stinks' it don't mean that's why I catch fish. Can you say rabbit
gumbo? Anyone need a mess of hare's ear flies?

PS, Been behind the 8-ball after losing a week-and- half because of mom's
passing. Have to catch up on work, start a new project, follow up on a
good lead, take care of 4 acres, and head back to Elko this weekend to take
care of mom's home and the rest of her belongings. So I've been lurking
for a little. We inherited a 'Shitzoo' dog, too- anyone need
dubbing?
Also inherited some classical albums- the vinyl kind. What the heck
do I do with those? And lots of orchestra, piano, and sheet music.
Jerry G.- THere's some Jewish folk records in there. You
interested? (My step-father was a concert classical pianist and Jewish)
Also trying to plan a Mokai trip. Don't know when I'll have time
for that, though, or my new Raptor, or tying, or anything.

You are
all masters in your own minds, but you are a true
master when you realize that there nothing more to learn then
you already know, like me, as I really do know it
all. Not even Byard, Tony, or DonO come even close to what I
know. I should have been the Grand Master of the IOFF, and Emporer of
the Flies (not just 'Lord of the Flies').
