After seeing the pics of our beloved Jim "Wildman" Wilkins, I got to thinking about his famous mustache and some of my comments about it over the course of our friendship. So, without further adieu, I think we need a thread dedicated to the greatness that can only be Jim's Mustache.........
Some things need no narrative......
Jim once rescued a Cub Scout pack from a cliff by pulling them up with his mustache....
Jim's mustache has it's own zip code......
The last time Jim got a trim on his mustache, Abe Lincoln was standing in line behind him....
Jim's mustache has its own booth at the Fly Fishing Show. You can find it in the Fly Tying materials section.
Jim went to the ear doctor because he was hearing odd chirping noises. The doc looked in Jim's mustache found a nest of fledgling sparrows and an endangered spotted owl.....
Jim once survived a blizzard in the Sierra's by wrapping himself in his mustache for warmth....
One time, Tom Sakai caught Jim's mustache in a backcast with a size 16 Copper John. When the fly popped loose and hit the water, it was a dry fly and was immediately inhaled by a 30" hook jaw brown.
Jim's the only FFA member known to do well on the Upper O at high noon. The trout hide in his mustache's shadow...
Security at Sea World once asked Jim to leave because he was embarrassing their bull walrus.
Feel free to add to this..... Jim, you rock.
