Rangley is nice. Great motorcycle ride from my house. Scenic.

Finished mine today. 10 dry flies headed to Wooly. Mice are dries, right?
My real name is Chad Farthouse.

What part of Maine are you in?
Beautiful downtown Fairfield.

I fished below Edwards Dam a few times, family used to have a place in Bremen, down on the Coast.
Mike Holt, had the fly shop up there on the river and we hired a guide a couple of times took my son and his friend and we caugghgt about 60 smallies between the three of us. Never did catch many trouts at Edwards.
ex - I'm not going to live with you through one more fishing season!
me -There's a season?

I miss Mike's shop. Was a 3 minute walk from my house. The dam coming down ruined my little bit of the Kennebec. I went from fishing over large browns and rainbows every evening to a river full of alewives and stripers. Oh well. Change happens.

Alright I hit the post office this afternoon and it says Keith should get them Monday. I haven't tied much because I haven't fished much the last couple of years. My skills and eyesight have both diminished. I hope you'll still be able to catch a fish or two with them. Egg flies are OK right?  :laugh:

Hey! Got the ugliest 10 caddis flies you'll ever fish done.  d:b

I learned a long time ago they don't have to be pretty to catch fish. I remember some of the flies I was taught from old timers when I first started fishing looked like hair balls and dryer lint.

Mine are done.  Should get them out tomorrow.  I left them at home this morning.  DST always screws with my memory in the mornings for about a month . . .

From me you are getting a CDC caddis - deer hair tail with mixed March Brown/Copper Ice Dub body and March Brown CDC wings.  I think they look like crap, but they float like nobody's business and forever.  I put some of the early samples in a glass for about 3 days and nothing ever sank.

I need to play with CDC bodies next.

Going in mail today, was going to fish with Woolly today and give them to him them, but I had to cancel on him.

Hey, I bought the hooks I needed. 
And the flies will have fancy tags on them. :laugh:
