Congrats, Sean!
How do you tie the fly to your hooks without killing them with the thread? I keep cutting them in half.

Congratulations to the both of you! After being married for 43 years, you'd think I'd have some witty thing to share about how to have a long life together. I don't. Enjoy this new chapter in your life.

Congrats to you both. I have to agree with WB--your best catch yet!

Yes, nice catch. But I don't think he plans on releasing her. ;)

I hope the rain did not interfere with your planned Arrowhead tube float.

Valerie and I want to say thanks for all of the kind words. So far chris, there is no rain but as it turns out, I don't think we have lake rights. So we will be stopping by a certain local in the next few days. If nothing else, we will be able to go for a hike and possibly hit up the hot springs. Valerie is definitely a keeper, for our second date I took her to the big reedy and camped in the campground below the dam. It was cold, for some reason the lights didn't work on the camper but she did enjoy herself and we finally got her on fish the next day.
