Yesterday, my son and grand daughter were walking to the edge of of or property to check on getting a part off an old Ford we have parked there when they saw a huge rattler gliding across the yard. They ran up and got me, and wouldn't ya know it but the firing pin on my shotgun is broken, so I get my 22 magnum pistol and go out there. I spot him, and you know how ppl are about telling you the size of snakes. It's like telling you the size of the fish that got away. But this was one of the Eastern Diamondbacks you see on the TV shows, as in over 5ft long, and bigger than my forearm. But the weird thing is, even after I shot (and missed 3 out of 5 times, cause it's hard to hit a snake with an old revolver at 15 yards, cause that was as close as I was getting LOL). Anyway, through all that, he NEVER ratted a single time. I shot and missed. I shot again and hit him. He stopped dead in his tracks and I thought I had heart shot him, cause I knew it was a body shot. I shot again, and hit him again. (reason I know is cause after he had gone, I saw the blood stains on the ground) He still didn't move. His tail was straight up, and he had 7 or 8 rattles, each at least 3/4 across, but like I said, they NEVER once rattled. I missed him three more times, and had one round mis fire before he FINALLY started crawling off VERY SLOWLY. My son in law had heard the shots and came down with his shotgun, and we went out into the woods and hunted the snake for 30 minutes or so, but never saw him again. Man, that really scared me knowing how close he was to my son and grand daughter. He was a BEAUTIFUL snake as he had JUST shed his skin and his colors and markings were really bright. But he'll be dead and beautiful if I see him again and hopefully get more shots at him LOL. Anyway, if you live anywhere that is snake country, this is a bad time of the year, so be on the lookout at all times.

Re: [VFB] fish handling
It also depends on the size of the fish the larger the fish the more damage just lipping does to the fish. If the fish is over 5 lbs you should also support the fish under the belly or pull no more than the head out of the water.

I don't think lipping (as we call it in Alabama) hurts the bass , and I don't think your belly holding does either as long as you don't wipe all that slime off the fish, which protects the fish against bacteria etc. Most ppl around here who belly hold the fish, do so with the fish UNDER the water.

Re: [VFB] Soft Body Plastic Resin
You might try Aleene's Fabric Fusion also biggest problem i have with it is its drying time. It takes quite a while to dry when it is put on in thicker applications. It is also water based and drys clear.

Not many non-flytying latexes are formulated to give the same result.

Re: [VFB] Damsels and Dragons Swap 2012
Just figured out my Monday post did not go through to the list(s) Anyway I received Chucks flies in the mail this weekend and I am still waiting on a couple sets for both groups to complete the swap. I plan on waiting till this weekend for the missing sets and sending them out on Monday. If you can't wait let me know and I will get yours headed your way immediately. I also need to know which Charity you would like the extra set sent to? Casting for Recovery http://castingforrecovery.org/ or Project Healing Waters http://www.projecthealingwaters.org/ I will probably end up sending flies to both because of the wonderful donation of flies from Chuck Alexander. I am also working on a couple wooden flyboxes in my spare time if they come out well the donated flies will go in them otherwise I will pick up a box at a local retailer. -- Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing - After they have exhausted all other possibilities. --Winston Churchill Robert Morger Central Texas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

[VFB] Home made dubbing question, Proportions
I made up a bunch of dubbing recently using about 50% poly yarn and 40% rabbit fur or mink fur (Guard hairs intact) and 10% shiny stuff, the colors came out nice but the mix is a bear to get to cling to the thread. So my question is how much underfur to coarse or synthetic mix should be blended to make a mix that wraps well on the thread? - Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing - After they have exhausted all other possibilities. --Winston Churchill Robert Morger Central Texas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

[VFB] Off Topic Help Needed
Hey guys my house was hit by a bolt of lightening a week ago and it blew out most of the electronics in the house. Everyone was ok but it really screwed up a few locations around the house. Luckily there was no fire associated with the strike that I could not get out immediately. Very rude awakening at 4 in the morning. We have visited with insurance and are starting to pick up the pieces and replace some of the items that were destroyed. Does anyone know much about antenna systems? I need to replace the old system but don't have much of a clue on what I need and how to set it up. I do know it had a rotator control, pre-amp and a uhf-vhf fringe antenna. Anyway if you can help me in any way please drop me a line off list probably would be best unless others want to learn the benefits of off air systems B^) FISHING?TYING RELATED: I did find where my wife hid my flies for the Thunder Creek Swap that morning so I should be able to get them out as soon as I have tagged them and found a envelope to send them.

Re: [VFB] Thunder Creek Streamers
That's where the too short comes into play the hair that doesn't flare (same area you are talking about) has either been picked over by me or is too short for the hook/pattern, thus the change. This was an odd bucktail in that it had a lot more white hair on it than brown and the white hair was very long and fairly straight but that was the reason I bought it. On 1/9/12, Jack Lehman jklepo...@sbcglobal.net wrote: I don't know about the too short part, but bucktail taken from the lower 1/3 of the tail does tend to flare.

Re: [VFB] My Whip Finisher/Off Topic answer, sorta
It's not just the drought Chuck from what I understand from a few folks that know is that the government also cut the amount the subsidize peanuts in this area this year and alot of the farmers decided to grow crops that yield higher returns. On 12/27/11, Chuck Alexander chuckalexan...@centurylink.net wrote: Tony: We hope to make it, but I don't know. As most of you know, my wife and I (mostly her) own a Boiled (and Roasted) peanut stand as a business. Anyway, at the beginning of this Summer, peanuts went from $48 for a 50 pound bag to $55. Then, about October I guess it was, they went to $65 a bag. Then yesterday, she went to pick some up and they were $87 per 50 pound bag. Her prices have been the same for over 5 yeasr, but she is going to HAVE to go up now, so we'll have to see if it affects business. That's about a 91% increase in less than 6 months if my math is correct. Anybody here who likes peanuts or peanut butter, better stock up. They said that it was mainly cause of the draught in Texas and other states out that way. I didn't know Texas raised that many peanuts, but I guess they do.

Also, I have added a little tinsel to the body and if making them the same color as a feather wing streamer, say a Supervisor, I put on the red tailing, no beard or throat.

Re: [VFB] two questions about cool-aid
You may want to try some other dry drink mixes they use the same type dyes, stuff like Ocean-Spray or Crystal light or generic brands. Be a bit more pricey but possibly more available. I saw a shirt that was dyed with 100% cranberry and grape juice that was mixed with red wine vinegar that had really nice color that might also be an option.
