[VFB] Re: test
Jimmy, at the very end it i important that we recover, not so much the time. And see, even emails tak their time. I did send my answer to your 'test' on August, 31. And whoop, only 9 days later it surfaced on the list. But I don't want to blame google, my first analysis shows, that my provider did need the time to transfer it. A snail mail would have been faster, even in the US Rene -Original Message- Date: Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:29:19 +0200 Subject: [VFB] Re: test From: Jimmy D. Moore ray...@earthlink.net To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Yep, but just barely. This damned pneumonia sapped all my strength. Been 3 1/2 weeks now and every time I think I'm over it, I'm reminded that I'm still not 100 %. Can't do much without breaking into a sweat. Didn't realize recovery took so long.

From: t...@comcast.net Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2009 05:51:22 -0600 To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com I'm fine. I have another minor operation scheduled in October to tweek my plumbing, and if that goes well, I will be pretty much the same as I was before the surgery (just a little extra gear added)! I haven't posted much out of laziness more than anything else. Plus I didn't have a lot to say. I spent a good deal of my summer trying to get my new boat to actually run, in fact we had the first fully successful run last night! We nick-named her the Hell-bitch after Captain Call's famous horse (from the movie Lonesome Dove), like the horse, the motor is touchy, but fast when it gets going, it will cruise at about 45 mph which probably isn't particularly fast for a bass boat, but fast enough for me. It is an older boat, a 1990 Ranger with a 150 HP 1996 Evinrude engine (2 stroke). It needed about $650.00 in carb work and a little trial and error to finally get it to run properly. I have to ride the choke or have someone pump the fuel ball when bringing it up to speed on a cold start or it will stall during the initial acceleration. It probably will need a new fuel pump eventually, but I'm going to live with the work around for now. Once it gets up to speed and warmed up, it works great. I did do some fishing at Hebgen Lake (my first time) I stayed at a nice little private campground on the Madison arm. Get ready by 8:00 am, carry the pontoon boat 30 feet, and your in the water. For two or three hours each morning I had pretty steady action stripping tandem BHPT nymphs, (the Gulpers never got going for dry fly fishing), but the fish were there, feeding in the weed beds. The biggest problem I had was break-offs, I think I landed only 1 fish for every five I hooked! They are big fish and easy to break off with the 5x tippet I was using, since they were smart enough to dive for the weed beds.

We hope that you'll enjoy, A Late Summer Walk, which begins on page 22 of the September/October issue. If you don't subscribe to this fine sporting journal, you should consider it. THE ALASKA CHRONICLES - I've guided many of you in Alaska. Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes at a fishing lodge? Miles Nolte's insightful and honest description of a summer in Alaska, working as a guide at a remote lodge is destined to become a cult classic. I first became aware of Miles and his now infamous post, The AK Chronicles, on the Drake Magazine's message board. We have a limited supply of The Alaska Chronicles available. Buy it from us and we'll include the official sticker, which I designed. I promise, you won't be disappointed! SPEAKING OF ALASKA I ve just returned from Alaska where I hosted a wonderful week of fly fishing at Royal Coachman Lodge. It was great to work with the crew there while they showed ten of my good friends the best that southwest Alaska has to offer. In the process I met Steve Carter, a pilot for the lodge, and learned that he s one hell of a photographer. Some photographers spend a lot of money to travel to Steve s back yard, and hope for the best. Steve spends five months a year in the bush and records every day of it with his camera. You owe it to yourself to check out his work. Enjoy! ARGENTINA - Join us in Argentina from January 30th to February 6th for a hosted week of fly fishing. In addition to 22 miles of the Malleo River within San Huberto's boundaries, our group of just 12 fishermen will also have access to a very remote stretch of the Alumine River, and Lago Tromen. If you have questions or would like additional information, please let us know as soon as possible, as our groups usually come together quite quickly. Update: we still have four spots available! FLY FISHING DREAMS - My old friend David Lambroughton cut his teeth as an Alaskan guide, at Bristol Bay Lodge, almost 30 years ago. Since then he's become known worldwide as a steelhead fisherman, fly designer, guide, and perhaps most importantly, an internationally renowned photographer. We're honored to offer you his 2010 calendar, Fly Fishing Dreams. This large handsome calendar features two beautiful photographs for each month, and all the bells and whistles. Order two... one for home and another for the office! A GENTLEMAN'S FIRESIDE DIARY - If you enjoy the Thursday Morning Art Review, then you'll treasure the latest book to which I've contributed. We're very proud to offer a limited number of, A Gentleman's Fireside Diary. This handsome book is a collection of essays, poems, and short stories thoughtfully written by sportsmen like us, and brilliantly edited by Ryan Doughty, with an evocative forward by Dez Young. The book is illustrated with over twenty of my pencil drawings, and I'm honored to have contributed two essays. Each copy includes a signed original pencil drawing on the title page. When you order, please specify your favorite fly or game bird feather. He who would travel happily must travel light. - Antoine de Saint-Exuprey (1900 - 1944) As the train went up the track on it's way to Marquette, Dan and the boy shouldered their packs and stepped across the rails and onto the sad little main street of Seney. Most of the town s buildings had long since been abandoned. I'm sure that the general store is still open, Dan said as they walked down the path, overgrown with weeds. They stopped in front of a stone foundation, fire-scarred and hollow. The depression within had begun to heal, and the fireweed and sweet fern danced in the cool breeze. That's where the old Grondin Hotel once stood. They bought dried peas, smoked bacon, and a loaf of heavy, dark bread at the store, and learned that there was a group of fern gatherers and berry pickers from Grand Marias camped on the high ground above the Little Fox. That's just a few miles up the old spur line. The shopkeeper told them. Dan and the boy walked west out of town, along the railroad track to the steel bridge. The river was there, narrow, fast, and smooth, clear but tea-colored, with a pebbly bottom. They stood and watched the trout keeping themselves steady in the current with wavering fins. They watched them for a long time. Do
