Daaaammmmnnnn. That is quite a visual record, Zee. More so because it's just for a single year. Very good pics and some memories I am sure will last you the rest of your life. Well done. Of course, there is internet when you get home, so you can still post for us all sometimes. :D

And one thing you got wrong…THANK YOU! So many good reports you've made and inspired. I am looking forward to the trip next week. See you then. :D
How do you tie the fly to your hooks without killing them with the thread? I keep cutting them in half.

I'm not going to say too, much cuz I've already done so a few times, but you're one amazing fly fisherman. You're recap of last year alone is simply amazing and that does not include your past years of fishing here which also had some amazing fish that most of us will just dream about catching.

We had some great trips, and I only wish that I could've been there for more. Thanks for all the knowledge you shared with me and great times we had together. Vegas last weekend was a trip I'll never forget and the trip to Bishop will be one as well.

Here's a pic of us @ Minus 5 Ice Lounge in Vegas

My all time fav pic of us from the first time we went fishing.

And another funny one of you, I only wish that Eric would've taken a pic of all the lumber we gathered up that night on the hike back to the truck.

See you Friday, and probably Saturday as well.

I think you've become a legend that we'll never forget, The Czech Flyfisherman!

Well Zee even though I never got the chance to fish with you, I sure enjoyed looking at your reports. Good luck to you in the move, and if you ever make your way back to Idaho look me up and we will go fish.

Zee,

Although we never met or fished together, I have a great deal of respect for you as a fisherman and as a person. Good luck wherever you roam, and I'm looking forward to more posts from the Czech Republic soon. From one guy with a hotter than I deserve ( :D ) fiance to another, I wish you well!

Joe

PS- Now where were those big browns again?

Zee,

Your journeys over the past year and a half or so have been fantastic and I have enjoyed you taking me along for the ride with your posts. I only wish I had been able to fish with you even just once. But life has different paths for all of us :)

I wish you the best of luck back in the Czech Republic.

If you approach life with the same passion that you approach fly-fishing then I expect you will do just fine.

Take Care.


Rob
