With some slight differences: Jung ugly men they clean the windscreen they only want money they move over just to the next car. Rene iain short wrote: Over the last month I became a victim of a clever 'Eastern European' scam while out shopping. Simply dropping into Wallmart in Blyth for a bit of shopping has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends. Here's how the scam works: Two seriously good-looking voluptuous 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the car. They both start cleaning your windscreen. Their large firm young breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It's impossible not to look, especially with all the rain we have been having. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they'll say 'No' and instead ask you for a lift to another store, in my case, Tesco at Kenton. You agree and they both get in the back seat. On the way, they start undressing, and both get completely naked. Then, when you pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over your lap, kissing you, touching you intimately, and thrusting herself against you, while the other one steals your wallet! I had my wallet stolen April 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, and 29th. Also May 1st, 4th, twice on the 6th, three times last Saturday and very likely again this coming week-end. So Be Warned! P.S. Lidl have wallets on sale for £1.99 each, Aldi's are £1.75 and look nicer.

[VFB] Re: Wading experience...
Sounds like you had quite the time. I have always had trouble with fast currents. I only weight around 140 so even a light current will float me away without a wading stick. (yes it has happened).

I have just come home from a nice week of grayling fishing in the northern Swedish river Hårkan... with a wading experience richer. The only wader dip I had before this was in White River 2006. That one must have been in the America's Funniest Home Videos league. Tony can testify on that. Water that's hardly moving... barely one foot deep... with a gravel bottom flat as a pancake... stumble on virtually nothing and landing on my chest. This time the water was waist deep though and pushing quite hard. The bottom was rocky and far from wading friendly (and I had been close to fall several times during the week). It wasn't a without wading stick place (at least not to me, who is a careful dude). I heard the sound of a fish rising to my left and when I quickly turned my head to see where it was I felt a sligtht sign of losing balance. So I took a little step backwards... maybe 5-6... slipped and fell backwards... and suddenly I was under the water. After fighting a couple of seconds I managed to turn around so I had my toes facing the stones and when I got a grip between the stones the stream towards my chest helped me to get up again. I turned to get up from the water and in the very next step I slipped again and fell face down. This time it didn't come as the same shock kind of thing as the first fall and I was able to actually THINK about how to get up, so I got back up standing without major problem. I looked down and was going to reach for my wading stick and saw that the left pocket in my chest pack was empty... just as empty as the left big vest pocket. Downstream I saw three boxes getting smaller... a big compartment/slit foam box with dry flies, a slit foam box (swing leaf) of the same size with nymphs and another slit foam box with soft hackle flies. I had packed my boxes with flies before this trip, so there were more than a couple of flies disappearing there... and instincts took over. I started to run downstream (as fast as you can, jumping on rocks with water up to your waist). The water got deeper though and when it reached just below my chest I stumbled and fell again. I had just reached the boxes, but at the same time I also reached a hole where it suddenly got much deeper. Trying to stand up again wasn't on the menu anymore and I started to swim. Swimming with the rod in one hand and 'catching' all three boxes was impossible. I knew that much. So I started to hit them one by one to get them upstream and closer to land. Then I swam a bit towards land myself until they reached me and it was time for the next hit/swim move again. After a couple of times repeating this I was at a depth where I could stand up again and just collecting the boxes coming towards me... and finally focus on leaving the water. The night before this I had landed my (by far) largest grayling after a long fight on a #3 rod and in fast moving water,,, but I still think this was the took the prize as the adventure of the trip. How I actually managed to salvage all three boxes and the rod (and myself) is beyond me. I must have had Him on my side. But you can't have anything. Back in the wind shelter we sat by the fire and I had changed into some reserve clothing and my wading jacket that I didn't wore when I fell. My soaking wet fleece sweater was hanging on a nail on the wall... right above my opened backpack. The water was dripping RIGHT down in the pocket where I kept the cellphone... and that was the end of his adventure. :oP So, what have I learned from this trip? *Be careful where you put your feet in the water. (I already knew that, so it was more of a reminder.) But keep your pockets closed. Careful or not... eventually you will still fall. Having given the extra second to close the pocket after putting the box back down can turn out to be worth both the time and the effort. *When you have fallen, gotten up and are sitting there happy over still being alive and not having lost anything... it doesn't have to be over. Luck can turn quicker than you can imagine. Just because you keep stuff on land to keep it safe from the water doesn't have to mean that it's actually safe from the water. ;o) /Nick (Attached: 'drying_table.jpg') This email has been proactively scanned for all known and unknown viruses.

[VFB] Fly tying bench/station
Here are pictures of the converted vanity that i use for my fly tying. I am currently remodeling our craft room so all my fly tying stuff is boxed up or in a travel case, so it looks real clean. The best part that i like about the tying station is the mirror. I can take unique pictures of tied flies. The picture would capture both sides of the fly. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

She was also amazed at how many tying techniques were included, telling me that I could make 3 DVDs with that much information. I told her I was already working on DVD #2 and it had a lot more advanced applications. From my standpoint it looked pretty good, but needs a lot more editing and photo inserts. How many tying sequences are there? 24 that I counted, not including the talking and fly demo sections, and it doesn't include the fishing sequence up front or the credits and ad pages at the back. The rope-dub is so quick, and I'm only tying the tail ends (not the finished pattern), that the tying sequences don't take very long at all. There's a lot for someone to work on, but the tying sequences coupled with various photos should allow pausing and rewinding so that tough parts can be reviewed. Only problem I could see was that my big 'ol ball-park frankfingers were getting in the way all the time. We used 2 camera angles, so hopefully we can get good views of all ties. I cancelled my trip to Idaho this week-end because of the storm moving in- supposed to be 2 to 4 feet of snow up in the western mountains (Jackon/Wilson areas) so the passes may get closed (our route). I'll have to wait for a later date to meet up with Jack Dennis to review it with him.

Like I mentioned before, VFB'ers get a 25%+/- discount. I'm waiting for Jack Dennis to view the DVD and get his comments, one of which will be pricing suggestions. Since the rope-dub is a technique, not a pattern or recipe, the applications will be literally for thousands of patterns, both old ones up-graded with the rope-dub and new ones designed based on the rope-dub's capabilities. The bottom line, of course, is fishability. With buggy-looking segmentation and near bullet-proof durability, it's perfect for the flyfisher who wants great fishing flies. The speed and ease will allow that same tier to tie 5 times as many flies in the same time. If you want to design new patterns, it extends the realm of 'dubbung' 10-fold, allowing the use of materials for dubbings and styles of dubbing that haven't been seen before.

I was given a Fly Fisherman Magazine and it talked about this new (to me anyway) catch and release system. Essentially the fly or flies have no hook but are attached up the leader. When a fish takes the fly the fisherman sets the hook, and is snagged in the side of the mouth by small, barbless, specially designed catch and release hook. According to the article the system was tested for years on thousands of fish caught, and mortality rates were far greater since the fish seldom is hooked in sensitive areas, and the release is very quick. Have any of you seen or fished with this system? Or tied flies for it?

Thanks to Tony, I was able to find hackle small enough to fit a size 32 hook. (Tony, by the way, the hackle works great. thanks) I sat down and tied 5 of the 25 needed. That was all my eyes could handle in one sitting. I even had to pull out the magnifying lens on my tying light to see what I was doing. I was even tempted to try the 2.5x power reading glasses that I found on the river when I was on vacation. (Being 27, I've never had to use them for anything yet). It is a good thing that we have until February to finish the swap. I will need the whole time to get these done.

I just wanted to let everyone know how my trip to the Island Park Idaho (Madison River) went. The weather was as expected, cold and snowy. That didn't stop us from getting our feet wet. The river was the lowest that I had ever seen it. That condensed the fish into the deeper channels changing the fishing completely from the busy season. There was a nice midge hatch going on when we arrived at Reynolds Pass pull off, just below earthquake lake. I ended up catching my share of fish for the day (over 15 rainbows and one Brook trout). They weren't the biggest fish in the river but they gave a pretty good fight. I caught ¾ of the fish on a red WD-40, which was surprising due to the fact that the midge hatch was a dark olive (I didn't understand it either). Overall it was a good trip. My family enjoyed seeing Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons.

This was a road kill in perfect shape, not smashed so I thought I would skin it out. It was a cold day and I was at a friends shop on the lake. I put the skin in my new van with the windows closed. It did not smell in the cold air outside where I skinned it. The sun warmed up the air in the van and no need to tell you, it was cold driving the 40 miles home with all the windows open.I tried washing the pelt and several other things to get the smell off the skin. I finally tried Borax and Joy, that did it and left the skin part nice and white and no smell. Tony --- On Tue, 10/28/08, John C. Bennett [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: John C.
