DUBBN, Howdy;
Good to see you are getting back into the swing of things once again.
Also, good to see your ever smiling face and a decently sized trout in
your grasp.
Happy Holidays from the both of us!

I've missed seeing pictures of your hat.
PS - Give me a call, if you need someone to hold your net.
Holy Cow! Those are some gorgeous fish!!! Healthy and spectacular color. I'm glad to see you getting out again, but I wish you had kept the snow. It arrived here yesterday. We have Lake Effect snow warnings all day. Some areas could get a foot of snow.

What did you use for the eyes on your mysis shrimp? Is that rubber leg material?

Much happy for you, Wayne. It has been a long time coming.

Another thing that I've used for mysis eyes that works is .020 mono, burned gently at the ends. Also, a small hunk of .020 lead with black paint applied to the ends.

Wayne, won't the damp waders hanging in the garage with the damp spot under them be a tip off ???
