Hi gang,

A short family update, maybe nice at least for those I met at 2 sowbugs.

My children did turn me into a double gandpa.
Daughter got a son,
My son go a daughter.

All are well, except the grandpa. I'm now married to a granny.
All within 4 weeks. Folks, what a short time frame to get an old chap.

I'm wondering if I should build a 2wt for the boy

Rene

Re[2]: [VFB] translation help?

2015-06-05 Thread Thomas R. Eckert



Google translate:

Fly tier Peter Andersson has developed a series of yarn flies that works 
Finemang on the perch


I met on the fly Boa Yarn Leach created by Rick Zieger to fly fishing 
for the abborrsläktingar commonly called panfish on the Internet. 
Because I like simple flies, I fell immediately and gave me away to the 
nearest yarn shop to buy »Boa Yarn«. Boagarnet, which is found in most 
yarn business, have a flat core with hair to one side. If you wrap the 
core flat on the hook shank with the hair toward the back, you get a 
nice palmerhacklad fish fly as easily subdued as effective. There are 
other brands that work just fine, just make sure they are made in the 
same way with flat core wire as the original. Rick Zieger also binds 
variants with rubber legs, metal ball more. I began to bind the original 
in various colors, such as a tinted color from purple to golden yellow 
on a streamer which proved excellent for perch. Otherwise it is black a 
reliable color noble fish.


The creation goes on. I have long thought about a good imitation of the 
great bredrumpade trollsländenymferna are such fine morsels of big fish. 
The solution was so simple that it's annoying that I have not come on 
earlier. It was just to add a few yards long soft hackle in front of the 
yarn body to imitate the nymph legs. So it was clear and rainbows like 
it a lot. It binds mostly in black with grizzlyben. The latest addition 
in the fly box, I modified an old favorite, the Big Hole Demon, Boa Yarn 
Demon by replacing the original front body of chenille and hackle with 
boagarn. Becomes a slim and nice fish imitation of something better 
luster than the original. Liked by perch and rainbow. It will also be 
tested on trout along the coast at the first opportunity.

Re[2]: [VFB] test message

2015-05-29 Thread Thomas R. Eckert

this i no language -
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting 
industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever 
since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and 
scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five 
centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining 
essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release 
of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently 
with desktop publishing software like Adobe PageMaker including versions 
of Lorem Ipsum.

Betreff: Re: [VFB] test message

There was an interesting reason behind Neville's test message.  All of 
his messages to VFB were being labelled as suspected spam by his ISP, 
Shaw.Ca.  But no other messages.


Neville contacted Shaw.  They said it was because someone at VFB had 
labelled one of his messages as Spam and there was nothing they could 
do about it.


I didn't know what to do, but after mucking around a while in the VFB 
management fields, I found a tab that said reset.
So I reset Nev's account, not knowing whether I had fixed it or kicked 
him off forever.


So he sent the test message to see if it was labelled spam.  It 
wasn't.  For a change, something worked.


How many of you were able to read his message.  For that matter, were 
there any of you who did not recognize the language?


It was interesting - I couldn't translate it, even having studied the 
language for two years (okay, it was more than a few weeks ago!).  But 
even more interesting, I ran it through Google's translator program. It 
was only able to translate maybe a third of it.

Even it didn't recognize some words that I did.

Now we need Neville to send us the translation. :-)

him this morning -


Hi Nev
Got home last Thursday (30th )and  having good and bad days. carers are 
coming 3 times per day to wash me and help try to feed me but I dont 
have any appetite so I am losing strength.
I will keep you as informed as,I can and have told my wife and daughter

been a pleasure to be a part of this group in my own small way and I 
wish everyone the best.

Betreff: Re: [VFB] Re: POPPER SWAP CLOSED

I had planned on getting to mine Tuesday morning but ended up in the ER 
again with a bad TIA. Was in the hospital a few days with a follow up 
with my primary doctor on Friday. While in the doctor's office I had 
another TIA. I am now under new medication a bit disoriented and weak. 
Looks like this swap has been a curse on me. First the fall I took that 
messed up my shoulder. Still taking therapy for that three days a week 
that will be extended for another six weeks trying to avoid shoulder 
surgery, It is helping quite a bit and I thought I could get to tying a 
bit each day.
I will still try to get the Poppers tyed if I can just get over this 
mess.

 Hi Chuck,
 
 Black is notorious for being very difficult to dye with fabric dyes such as 
 Rit (and dylon).  From experience, I wouldn't bother wasting your time with 
 black Rit but try and find a black dye that is stronger,  when I get around 
 to it I will be searching for one myself.
 
 Personnally,  I  would always add the vinegar.

 Folks: Can anybody give me the “secret” to dying feathers (and/or fabric)

 salt but not the vinegar as it said to only use the vinegar with salt if the 
 material is silk or wool and not cotton. Brought the water to a boil, then 
 let it soak all day. Still just came out a darker purple and NIT jet black 
 like the dye is.
  
 Now is my problem in that. He saved the water as I have a ton of grizzly 
 feathers, but hardly any black, so I was just going to sye a grizzly neck in 
 that same dye water mix after he finished. But I don’t want the grizzly to 
 go from black and white, to purple ad white. Any tips?? Should I add 
 vinegar?? Thanks, Chuck

Folks: JUST got back from the doc. He cut, scraped and burned that skin 
cancer off my shoulder, and removed another suspicious looking mole 
that was getting darker and more irregularly shaped as well. All went 
well and he went real deep like I asked him to do to get it all if he’s 
right and it has not spread anywhere else. Now comes the waiting game 
of the lab results to see the type/stage etc or whatever that will tell 
them. I’m just glad it/they are gone. Didn’t feel a think except for 
the sting of the first lidocaine injections, which was great. Thanks to 
all for the thoughts and prayers and wish you’d continue that the lab 
results will be good as well and say that no matter what type it was, 
that he got it all the first time. Thanks again, Chuck

Betreff: RE: [VFB] Are Fish Intelligent?

While I agreed w/ most of the points presented, there is some anecdotal 
evidence of learned behavior in some fish species,  predators in 
particular seem to possess greater intelligence than bait fish. I truly 
believe that the reason we catch more juvenile fish is more than just 
because there are more of them. Why, for instance, will a more mature 
fish spend more time observing a lure or fly before taking action, 
including backing away? The more time you spend studying fish in their 
habitat, the better  your chances of enticing said piscatorial foe into 
catching a lure, and “out thinking” is an overused term in that regard 
but that doesn’t mean that fish don’t learn.

Subject: [VFB] Are Fish Intelligent?



Virtual Fly Box Collaborators - I would be interested on your feedback 
on this article published in the Armchair Angler a few months back.  
Tight lines..




Are Fish Intelligent?  . . . or are Fishermen Stupid?



Fly Fishers through the ages have allotted great intelligence to fish 
in general and the harder it is to catch a fish the smarter it must be. 
 However the question remains, “are the fish really smart or are the 
fishers dumb.”  Since few people are able to accept or admit that they 
are not intelligent (in some area) they tend rather to accredit great 
intelligence to the prey and grant themselves the title of “even more 
intelligent” when they happen to land a fish.




If one admits that a fish has but a pea sized brain and relatively 
simple cognitive skills, they must also recognize that, though humans 
have a grapefruit size brain and complex cognitive thought processes, 
we often remain quite stupid when it comes to thinking like a fish.




Some fishermen have interesting irrational thought patterns like:

“That looks like a nice spot I’ll fish here.”

“I think this is a beautiful fly, so I’m sure the fish will like it 
too.


“Wow . . . That is a beautiful fly rod, if I have one of those I’ll bet 
I can catch a lot of fish with it.”


“I caught a fish.”



I would surmise that the only ones who have “caught” a fish with a rod 
and reel are the ones snagging fish in low water with a bare treble 
hook on the end of the line.  In all other instances the fisher did NOT 
catch a fish; rather the fish caught the fly. Fly rods, no matter how 
beautiful or expensive do not catch fish; fish catch flies.  It makes 
little difference if the fisher thinks his flies are beautiful; it only 
matters if the fish thinks the fly is food or is endangering their 
space.  There are many beautiful stretches of water that contain very 
few fish – the old 80/20 rule – 80% of the fish are in 20% of the water 
(or even 90/10).




What matters to the fish are three things:

·Food – is there a source of nourishment

·Shelter – am I safe here

·Oxygen – can I breathe freely

Fish are very sensitive to these three things . . . sometimes very 
sensitive. And maybe a fourth would be reproduction. They are very 
sensitive to their spawning time.  The author’s opinion is that these 
sensitivities are not so much learned through intelligence, but are the 
God given instincts that all fish are imbued with.




The fish have an instinctive ability to perceive if they are safe or on 
danger.  They will avoid places and situations where they feel unsafe 
and gravitate to places where they feel safe and protected; we call 
these places structure.




The fish have an instinctive ability to sense how much dissolved oxygen 
in in the water. If they cannot breathe freely they will look for a 
place where the water has greater oxygen content, like below a riffle, 
in colder water, or beneath waves.




And fish instinctively know when they are hungry, what items are food, 
and maybe, and this may be a stretch, even which will give them the 
most protein for the effort it takes to catch that food.  Sometimes 
when fishers say, “the fish are so smart today and won’t take any of my 
flies,” the fact of the matter may be that they are not feeding at that 
time of the day.




Since fishers are not fish, they do not instinctively think like a 
fish. If fishers believe the fish think like humans they fall into 
self-deception.  Perhaps, if a fisher can get out of himself and begin 
to think like a fish (and each species has different instinctual 
characteristics) then maybe one can be lucky enough to offer a fly in 
such an enticing way that the fish cannot resist the urge to catch the 
fly.




Like the oldtimers often say, “That’s why we call it fishin’ and not 
catchin

 like email lists.  To keep track of our kids we are on Facebook.

 Hi Tony:
 
 I think that the problem is that we are all getting older and we don't seem 
 to attract many young people. Whilst I like the e-mail format, many younger 
 people here in British Columbia tend to use the forum style such as: -

 Don I really miss it all. The list has gone into cyber space.
 I have had not much to say, I am  not doing anything except getting old. Oh I

 Do any of you know of a link to Roman Moser's videos that are NOT dubbed over

 (In one of my earlier incarnations, I was a German linguist in the Army - so 
 his native (??) German shouldn't be a problem.)
 
 (As a side note, I wonder if Roman Moser is related to the great Italian 
 cyclist, Francesco Moser?  While living in Germany, I was a member of a 
 German cycling team from 1980 thru 1984, and my bicycle was built by 
 Francesco Moser.  Still have it in the attic.)

I just finished watching Flyfishing Chronicles on TV.  Today's segment was 
about Wounded Warriors fishing in Colorado.  It was pretty touching.  I have 
started watching this program and I highly recommend it.  It is not how I would 
do a TV program but this WV native is a really good guy.  He loves his family.  
He loves this country and he is just nice.

 

One more thing - I just saw a new ad for Ronco Fishing Rod.  I have not seen an 
ad for that in years.  Just curious has anyone ever used one?  Do they really 
work?

 Wayne,  understood. But measuring OD on  crushable material is difficult. Try 
 it yourself.  How many measurements do you average?  Is the uniformity 
 sufficient that measurements at a given point agree with measurements a yard 
 away or 5 yards away or..
 
 Maybe you should come up with a new standard for thread measurements - BH 
 Units. 
 
 Get out yr old micrometer and go for it.

Thank you for your prayers guys. Maybe they did a difference. This morning
he was quite alert and didn't settle for his youghurt, but wanted to have
the second half of my sisters shrimp sandwich too. During the day he was
like I said earlier... nothing or a little better, but not worse. But a
couple of hours ago I got that international phone call from my sister that
I was afraid of... 

 

He had felt pretty good during his last day. It was not like that horrible
night when I was with him. He just didn't wake up from that nap. Maybe it
was your prayers...

 

Thanks.

Just been in England for two weeks, where the sister of my (English) fiancé
has got a stage 4 lung cancer. She was going to get married before she got
too weak and we were attending it. But this mail isn't about her... yet.

Three days after coming home from England I was at work when I got a phone
call... Your father is really really sick now. So I just packed my bags
again and booked a ticket to Iceland, where I have my (Icelandic) father's
side of the family. He's got a stage 4 prostate cancer and has now been
placed at a hospice in Kopavogur. Lately his health has been like a roller
coaster and he has gone in and out of hospital. Now he had gotten an
infection and was also constantly losing blood.
His cancer had now spread to the bones and the treatment didn't do anything
anymore. But an alternate treatment was planned, though he had to be both
stronger and more stabile than he was for the moment. So he hadn't been
placed at that hospice for the same reason as the other patients there, to
get as much life quality in their last days. It was just better for him to
be there for now. 
I had been there for 5 days and my sister for 2 and we sat alone with him.
The fever rised and everything got worse. The situation reached the level
where the nurses got other faces, offered us a book with the title At The
End to prepare us... and finally also offered us a priest to help us with
support. And when people with extensive experience of dying patients are
doing things like that... you more or less know what to expect and we called
his fiancé and my other sister. So for a couple of hours we all then sat
there looking at his breathing and wondering if there would come another
breath after that... when he suddenly stopped moaning and started to breath
normally again and finally fell asleep. The man surprised everyone,
including staff... and when we came back the next day we couldn't believe
our eyes when we entered the room and saw him in sitting in his chair
laughing at the TV.
I had to go back home to Sweden the 23:th. Christmas Eve at home is the
price of having children. But daily reports from my family has said that
after this horrible night he has slowly but steadily gotten better and
better... one foot in front of the other... and optimism has found its way
into us again. Maybe he would get a chance to get that treatment after all.
Isolating his cancer to his bones could give him a considerable amount of
time.
But this morning I talked to my sister. Yesterday her husband (also a
doctor) had spoken to my father's doctor, who said something none of us had
expected after seen him climbing like this. We should hope for weeks
rather than months. My sister didn't catch the reason why but obviously
something still is very wrong, despite the looks of it.

This got a little bit longer than planned. Making long stories short has
never been my field. The only thing I wanted with it was to ask for
prayers... that this probably rather short time that he has left will be as
pain free as possible.

I was asked to pass this on from his son.

Tony

 

Via via via i have received an email directed to Bas. I'm his son Marco and
Bas sends you his warmest regards.
He is doing well but his overall condition is not very strong at the moment.
He needs a walking aid and the days of fishing and tying flies are over.
Lately i have digitalized his slides and he loves looking to them. Many good
memories of tying classes and all sorts of trips in U.S. and Europe.

Please transfer his warmest regards to all the friends you know.
You can always contact me for any news that might have his interest.

Regards from Marco Verschoor.

Folks: I need your thoughts and prayers. This Tuesday morning I have to have
both an Upper Endoscopy and a Colonoscopy (PLEASE God let them use two
DIFFERENT tubes LOL) as I have been having stomach/intestinal pains since
late July or so. It got s bad, that in August I had to go to the ER and
they kept me for three days running all sorts of tests, starting with tests
on the heart as a man (or woman) of 55 with any type chest or abdominal
pain, that’s the first thing they rule out. Thought it was my gall bladder
because the pain radiated in back from between my shoulder blades to down
and in front at my abdominal area. Ruled that out with CT scans, and
ultrasounds, and said though the gall bladder a little inflamed, there were
no stones, or blockages. Plus, they did a Mio View stress test for my heart
and said they saw little or no blockages, so I was glad to hear that. But
SOMETHING is making it hurt 24/7. My doc says it could even be scar
tissue/adhesions attaching themselves to my intestines as I had to have FIVE
Hiatal Hernia repair surgeries, and have three plastic meshes in there now,
along with 27 staples, and over 200 permanent type stitches.  I hope they
find out what it is, but just hope it’s something that can be easilly
corrected as this pain is getting to be a major pain. And NONE of the meds
my new doc I found while in the hospital prescribed me. That’s was the good
part about that whole thing too. I went to a different hospital than the one
we normally use, as we moved two years ago, and the one I now use is closer,
and I love my new doc who is now our new Family Doc. Thanks a lot, Chuck

Posting this for Tom Birsot.

Dear Tony,

 

Bas Verschoor has given me a phonecall that he has received a letter from
Hans Rudy Hebeisen and that the address was given by Thomas Eckert.

I think that you have given Thomas Eckert the addres from the nursing home
where he stay’s at the moment. Bas is not able to say thanks to Thomas and
Hans Rudy hebeisen, is it possible that you say thanks to Thomas for given
the address to Hans Rudy Hebeisen for the letter he wrote to Bas, he is very
pleased with it. And can you ask Thomas to say thanks to Hans Rudy for
sending the letter to Bas?

Bas Verschoor and I don’t know the e-mail adress of Thomas and Hans Rudy so
we can’t say thanks by e-mail.

 

Best regards,

 

Tom Biesot.

Today at 9:18 AM 

Hello Anthony,

 

Nice to meet you by this e-mail, I am a friend of Bas Verschoor for almost
15 years now and he was the one that learned me how to tie Salmon flies.
Maybe you don’t know, that almost 5 years ago his wife Dini died suddenly.
After that is was going pretty bad with Bas, because Dini was his soulmate,
they travelled together all the time and Dini was always driving the car,
because Bas was not so  good anymore to drive .

Bas was trying to survive without Dini but he was not mentally strong enough
to live on his own. We , his friends has helped him a lot, but he was
getting worse all the time , fisically he was also going pretty bad. His
legs and his hands were also getting worse. So he was not able to walk
anymore without the help of a rollator and tying flies was not possible
anymore. After 3 months of living on his own, Bas was send to a nursing home
for older people and there he is staying since then. His condition is not so
good and he can’t walk not so far anymore. But his mind is in a pretty good
shape as his memory is, he reads the newspaper every day but is not able to
do any computerwork anymore , because his hands are not good anymore.
Because his memory is still good I will tell him about the mail you have
send me and that you have lost contact.

Bas can,t send you a message, but you can send him a letter so he can read
it , please send him a nice card or something, he will enjoy that the most.
Me , my wife and his son are the only one that visit him on a regular base.
Maybe you can tell other tying friends of him that you know this story too.
In this World noweadays you are soon forgotten !!! I ‘don’t know the person
of theo that you are referring to.maybe you mean Theo Bakelaar of Holland??
With this e-mail I send you the latest picture of Bas and me.

Here is the address of Bas in Holland,

 

Bas Verschoor

 I did not believe what he said about you so no need to worry. LOL

 I wish I were able to travel again to do the shows we all used to do. I
 really had a ball with all you guys. I remember Seven Springs especially.

 Do you still know if Bas is tying, I have lost contact with him. How
 about the one that painted himself with Gold, I can't think of his name

 I would like to get in contact with them again. Lost a lot of contacts

Hans,

I did not believe what he said about you so no need to worry. LOL

I wish I were able to travel again to do the shows we all used to do. I
really had a ball with all you guys. I remember Seven Springs especially.

Do you still know if Bas is tying, I have lost contact with him. How about
the one that painted himself with Gold, I can't think of his name right off
hand but I think it started with a T. Those were the good days for me.

I would like to get in contact with them again. Lost a lot of contacts in a
computer glitch several years ago.

Tony

AW: [VFB] Irish Lough / bumble flies

2013-10-06 Thread Thomas R. Eckert
Hi Pete:  Trout  Salmon Flies of Ireland (Fly Fishing International)
(Hardcover)


by Peter O'Reilly, Terry Griffiths (Photographer) It is probably true to
say that wet fly fishing is the most widely practised form of fishing for
game fish in Ireland... 
This book contains Trout and salmon Fly patterns, that are used widely in
Ireland but will take fish worldwide.

Hi Pete,

The first book that comes to mind is the one regarded as the bible on such
matters.

Bumbles are the creation of T.C. Kingsmilll-Moore and his book 'A Man May
Fish is the first port of call. I would also go for Irish Trout and Salmon
flies by E.J.Malone as well which as a few Bumble patterns.

been on an Irish Lough fly or bumble fly kick lately.  I've watched every
Davie McPhail youtube video on the subject i could find - quite a few - but
was wondering if any vfb folks knew of good books or webpages on that style
of fly.  They are like mini spey flies, sans wing, in sizes 8 to 14/maybe
16, from the looks of things... palmered wet flies overhackled with
partridge collars?  A class to themselves that makes them awesome to me.
Any info is appreciated,

Betreff: [VFB] Rope-dub #2

 

Of course all of the VFBers will have dibs on the lowest serial #’s with
signature.

I’ve got about a 1000 flies tied up for samples, so there will be a lot in
each DVD.

 

I’ve been toying with the idea of doing a simple introductory You-tube to
just give a basic understanding on what the Rope-dub is and why it differs
from other dubbing techniques. I’ve been considering as least part of it as
side-by-side videos comparing my roping to looping, split thread, sticky
wax, Polly’s, etc.

 

Any ideas/comments? Yea or Nay?

physical therapy after examination. Mind you I set up my own therapy to keep
the mussel structure from getting
stiff and work it a bit since there were no clear instructions other than to
keep it moving and only sling it when
necessary to alleviate pain. Doc Lesko was impressed that my passive range

Subject: Re: [VFB] Flies of the past week... Alan DVD-2


I am aiming for a late winter release.  I'm figuring it's about 4 hours long, 
but I have a lot to learn about HD video and formatting forms and stuff.  It 
all affects how much HD Video I can get on a DVD. And by the time I'm doing 
final editing, they may have new stuff out. 

The 1st DVD had 25 tying sequences after the lead-in, so I'm hoping to get at 
least 100 tying sequences into the next one.  Every time I tie, I come up with 
something I want to add to the outline, so there is also an adding  
thinning-out process going on also.  

Is there a way to hyper-link from DVD video to another source url if you are 
using a computer to watch?  Could I embed a Youtube video address onto a fly 
photo or sequence on the DVD and if clicked have a Youtube video pop up and 
show it while the DVD pauses?  I've never seen it, but that doesn't mean 
anything.

That would be very cool and lend a lot of flexibility.

Anyone interested in seeing a different take-off on rope-dubbed flies?  
(rope-dubbers)
Very interesting look- very 'buggy'.  But you'll need a tool- a copper wire 
brush.  Works best with natural fur dubbing, and somewhat with synthetics.

Hi Joyce,

 

One old-timey friend gave us this tip, and it works great for ripening green
tomatoes.  Just take three or four full sheets of newspaper, black and white
version, and wrap a half dozen green tomatoes inside them like you are
filling a Tootsie roll wrapper.  Then just twist and seal both ends.

 

Put the tomatoes in a dark cabinet at room temperature, and about a couple
weeks later, you will have yummy red ones.  Something about the process
keeps the green tomatoes from going soft and rotten.

 Okay I am having some problems getting some round rubber legs to lay
 correctly on some shrimp flies I have been tying and need some
 suggestions to get this straightened out.
 
 I am tying the round rubber (koosh ball rubber) in near the eye of the
 hook on a bare to thread wrapped shank. I am tying in two pieces in
 the middle then wrapping down the rubber about a quarter inch, then
 folding the end back and wrapping it down to cause the legs to hang
 down and slightly to the sides but facing towards the eye. Problem is
 they are going all over the place instead of as I noted.
 
 
  I'd tell you to go to Hell, but I already work there and I wouldn't

Back on topic, why not just put something the equivalent of a small luggage

something like a mini luggage tag. I guess I have not acquired enough reels
to experience this yet. I did just sell all of my offshore made reels to buy
a couple of used Abel's. The only foreign made reel I have left is a gift
from Wayne on this list and that I won't sell. Up to that point I guess I

Hi Guys and Gals

just been to hospital for my latest scan results.
Tumors on the liver have all shrunk a bit more and the doc says I shouldn't 
need another scan for 6 months unless I get any symptoms of it re growing.

Looks like all your prayers are working, keep up the good work.

To keep it fishing related, this news means I will now buy a season ticket on a 
water that we fish regularly.

Can someone please tell me what I should use to thin Veniard's Cellire Varnish? 
 Mine is starting to thicken-up a bit to the point where I don't believe that 
it can soak through a thread head.  I know that Veniard's markets a proprietary 
thinner, but I'd like to avoid laying out another $5 or $6 to buy it.

 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?

Betreff: [VFB] Awful Situation.(Scott Sickau)

 


Hello,

I'm sorry for this odd request because it might get to you too urgent but
it's because of the situation of things right now.

I’m with family on vacation in London, United Kingdom, we got mugged last
night in an alley by a gang of thugs on our way back from shopping, one of
them had a knife poking my neck for almost two minutes and everything we had
on us including my cell phone, credit cards were all stolen,quite honestly
it was beyond a dreadful experience for us but looking on the bright side we
weren't seriously hurt or injured and we are still alive so that is whats
important. I've reported to the cops here and canceled all our cards,it
appeared I had acted quickly enough or they almost would have succeeded in
cleaning out my bank account. I'm really having some difficulties clearing
our hotel bills and also need to pick up a voucher ticket at the counter for
us to catch a flight back home as soon as possible.

All we need right now is £1,650pounds, but anything you can spare pending
when we get things straighten out will be appreciated and I promise to
refund as soon as we arrive home safely.

Write me back and let me know how soon you can get it to us asap.

Scott.

Betreff: [VFB] Latest on Larry

 

I stopped by Larry's hospital Saturday (he is now in SLC, 40 minutes closer
to my home) and visited with Larry on the 10th floor.  That is I visited
with Shauna, Larry was snoozing the entire time.  She is such a trooper, and
faithful companion to Larry!  Like most of us, he married above himself!
Larry is improving daily and his color is improving as the new liver does
its thing.  I called today, and Larry answered the phone!  It is obvious
that talking requires great effort for him, and after about five minutes he
told me he had to put the phone down because his arm is tired, but still it
shows that Larry is fighting to get back as quickly as he can.  It will be a
long road yet, he has a lot of edema and his kidneys still need a jump
start, so he will be on dialysis for a while, but the prognosis is very
good.  I hope to pop down and visit with him this evening, and will post
more then.  It probably is a little early for Larry to get a lot of phone
calls, but when he says he feels ready and able to talk with you, I'll let
you know.  Larry said in our phone conversation that he wanted to get back
on the computer as quick as he can, so don't be surprised to have him
suddenly pop up in the posts.

Shauna reported today at about noon that Larry will be moved from intensive
care to the 10th floor.   He can receive visitors but Shauna said this is
not good yet.   He still is in and out and under rather heavy sedation.   Do
not call yet either.   Shauna will let me now when you can call and visit.
That includes me too.
 
His yellow coloring is disappearing.   Billy Rubben (bilirubin) or however
you spell it is 6.   Whatever that means--it is much better than it was
before.
 
So, more tomorrow.

Shauna reports that Larry is doing MUCH better.   The kidneys are doing
thier job and he may not need any more dialysis.  The Dr. just came in.
 
More tomorrow.

This is all good news for a great person.

Uncle Dickie

 

 

 

November 20, 1931 -- February 18, 2011

 

 

 

Richard W. Talleur passed on Friday February 18, 2011, after a brief
illness.  Originally from Clinton Corners, NY, Dick enjoyed a long career
with ATT.  After retiring from ATT, Dick took his favorite hobby and first
love, and made it his life.  Dick was an accomplished fly tier and
fisherman, and a well-known and respected author of several books on fishing
and fly-tying.   Dick loved his sport and, with his many friends, supported
the continuation of fly fishing and the practice of catch and release.

I don't agree with these laws when I found the bird dead INSIDE one of my walls, but I don't guess the feds ever asked me if I liked their laws...or any other of my input for that matter on ANY subject.

Betreff: [VFB] Announcement

 

I am stretching the limits here but since there are occasional announcements
and since this has been the matter of many silent prayers - like please
please please let it.  and never answered. Finally, I had my first hole
in one Saturday.  I have been playing golf many many years, much longer than
I have been flyfishing (there in the hook to the site) and this is the
first.  I know Jimmy and a few others share this other passion so I share
that with you all.

Crossed the Canada/USA border and picked up the ant swap flies from the Post Office in Blaine, WA.

Great set of ants. Most of which were much more delicate and smaller than mine. A good selection of well tied traditional style thread or fur ants, a very nice CDC ant from Thomas (I doubt that I would be able to see it in the water,- just hang on and wait for a pull!) , Wes's GT ant and detailed instructions for tying and DonO's bead ant.

A special thanks to Jerry for hosting and for the extra tie-fast tool.

Rene,

Having been in engineering all my life, measurements have always been a
problem for designers and draftsmen, as we have more than one system go by.

 

We can do all in the decimal inch system:  1.525, or 1.75', or .0005, etc.

 

We may do it in the millimeter system, as you do.

 

We have the foot and inch system, where a foot equals 12, but there are
multiple systems here, too.

 

Your boat can be 10 feet, 2  1/2 inches long, or 10 feet, 2.5 long, or 122
 1/2 inches long or 122.5 long.

 

Take your pick.  All clear now?

Rene,
I KNOW SOMEONE CAN ANSWER THIS BETTER THAN ME. 
1ft = 12 inches,
1' = 12  1 = 32 -1/32, 16-1/16, 8,-1/8' . 4 -1/4 and 2 -1/2  36 in a
Yard
The metric conversion is 1= 1.? cm. I would have to look it up to give you
the exact figure.
1 is slightly larger than 1 cm.
Hope I have this straight.

Hi gang,
I have some things to double check:

If someone writes   2', this is 2 feet
  3 are 3 inches
ok?
  12 are 12 inches, but why is this not
1', 1 foot?
What is the relationship between foot and inches?
Everything in US units...

Don,
Thanks a lot for putting the infos together.
I'm using the regular stuff (not UV) and have done my first 2 leader
already. Applying the knot sense is a bit tricky (maybe my bottle is
old... G), but anyway, the result looks good and we will see how the
leader are working streamside.
My idea was, that the stuff strengthens the knot, now I see, it protects
the knot somehow...
Regards
Rene

Don Ordes wrote:
 It was a good November morning on the Deschutes: mist rose from the
 water into cool, 28-degree air; the sky promised a sunny day; no other
 anglers were on the water.
 The day got even better when I hooked a steelhead on my first run.
 After a bit of a tussle, I had the fish in close. It made another
 surge; I sensed a brief hesitation as line went through the guides.
 And the fish was gone, the beneficiary of a broken leader.

 I chalked it up to bad luck and went on to the next run--where I
 hooked another steelhead and lost it in exactly the same way. I check
 my line and found a deep cut about 18 inches from the line/leader
 junction. This cut was hanging up on the guides and was why I had lost
 two fish.

 At this point I met up with a friend, with whom I shared my tale of
 woe. I was about to cut off some line, which would have compromised
 its casting properties. Don't do that, my friend said. I've got a
 solution for you. He got out some UV Knot Sense, a Loon Outdoors
 product, and repaired my line in about two minutes. On the next run, I
 hooked yet another steelhead (like I said, it was a good day), but
 this one didn't get away because the line slipped easily through the
 guides.

 Line Repairs, Knot Coverage, Fly Tying
 UV Knot Sense is a handy product that can be used to repair fly lines,
 smooth over line/leader junctions, and make other streamside repair
 jobs. Some anglers like UV Knot Sense for fly tying, employing it
 where they formerly used epoxy to make heads on saltwater flies.

 Loon makes two products with a similar name: Knot Sense and UV Knot
 Sense. Both products create a strong, flexible, rubber-like coating.
 They are really a Pliobond replacement, if you've been around long
 enough to remember that venerable product.

 Regular Knot Sense is solvent-based product. It has the same uses as
 its UV cousin, but it takes 20-40 minutes to dry, is flammable, and
 smells until it is cured.

 UV Knot Sense cures under UV radiation, which the sun pores down on us
 all. That means you spread it on, hold it up to the sunlight, and in
 half-a-minute it's cured and you're good to go.

 That is, unless it's January and you're in Oregon, when low sun angle
 and cloud-cover renders UV Knot Sense of marginal use. Ah, but Loon
 has a solution for we Northwesterners. They make a UV mini-lamp and a
 UV power lamp. Spread UV Knot Sense on the repair job, shine the light
 on it for 30 seconds or so, and the job is done.

 UV Knot Sense and the mini-lamp are now fixtures in my tackle bag.

 A Few Caveats
 You need to take a few precautions with this product:

  1.. Don't look directly at the UV lamps when you're using them;
 you'll sunburn your eyeballs. Even the reflected light can create a
 problem. So don't work with your nose on the job, and if you're really
 paranoid, wear sunglasses.
  2.. Don't use this material to cover line cuts in your fingers. Some
 anglers use superglue for this purpose, which wears off. But UV Knot
 Sense generates some heat when it cures, so it may be uncomfortable
 when it's on your skin.
  3.. I have run across anglers (well, one) who feels that Knot Sense
 cures thinner than UV Knot Sense and thus makes a thinner line/leader
 coating.
 Scott Richmond is Westfly's creator and Executive Director. He is the
 author of eight books on Oregon fly fishing, including Fishing
 Oregon's Deschutes River (second edition).

 (Pilfered from the web by Buggs with permission by Dr. D, OK's by
 Veronica)

 I use it for shell cases, etc., and for knots.  Tie your leader knots
 normally, coat knot with UV KnotSense in the shade and taper out (no
 ledges), then stick out in sun a half-min to cure. Gets hard, but not
 as rigid as epoxy.  Will slip right through the guides.

 The Loons UV Wader Repair is the same stuff.

Wes:  When I take my tying equipment and materials with me, I take a
couple of big c-clamps, and set up on a camp-ground picnic table. 
Problem with that is the wind/breezes, which sends everything off the
table.  I have done some in the motel, but none stream-side.  I remember
the old video The Way of a Trout in which the fisherman sets up his
vise and ties a coachman or something and catches the huge trout

 Wes Wada wada@gmail.com 8/1/2010 9:33 PM 
How about a discussion on waterside (stream, lake, marine) tying tips?

My spouse Linda and I have done a lot of van camping and traveling. 
Picture
us parked at waterside –– waiting for bug hatch time or sheltering
a passing
storm.  I am doing a pretty good amount of tying, sitting behind the
van's
steering wheel.  (Not while driving!)

We traveled then with a Thompson A pedestal vise, my first tying vise
pressed into road duty.  I have built this little plywood platform
thingee
(have to do a photo).

The tying vise clamps onto a crosspiece on the plywood thingee, and
the
whole arrangement wedges comfortably between my solar plexus area and
the
slant of the steering wheel.  If you think about your specific design
and
dimensions, you can make yourself a quick, inexpensive vise mount and
working area.  Yes, the Art of
Tying Behind Your Steering Wheel.

The little plywood thingee is also the tying station for the top of
picnic
tables and the table described next:

For tying in the interior of the van, I keep much of my tying stuff in
the
side pockets of one of those high-impact plastic lap tables. If I am
sitting
on the bed of the van, back against comfy pillows, I can just plop the
lap
table over me, and set up a tying station in a flash.


Love to hear about your tips and experiences for tying waterside. Hope
you
are having a memorable summer.

 Don Ordes apparently didn't want much said beforehand and didn't say 
 much to me till I kicked him hard (long distance of course), but keep 
 him in your prayers today and the next while.
 
 Don is having brain surgery today (assuming they can find his brain 
 instead of Buggs' or Veronica's).
 
 Don has been having severe pain from trigeminal neuralgia, which is a 
 pain more severe than about any other pain a person can have. To 
 correct it, they are going to have to open his skull and work past 
 his brain (actually move it aside) to get to the trigeminal nerve. 
 Once there they will correct the problem. I assume that means clip 
 the nerve. Then they will reassemble his skull.
 
 It will be a 2 hour (plus or minus) surgery and he'll be in the 
 hospital at least a couple of days. In the good old days he would 
 have been in the hospital a week or two.
 
 If anyone wants to send a card, contact me and I'll send you an 
 address this evening OFF-LIST.

Betreff: [VFB] Semperfli

 

Has anyone on the list heard of Semperfli dubbing and other fly tying
products?

 

It is sold in the UK but I don't think that it originates from there.

 

I have googled Semperfli but can find nothing about its background i.e.
who is behind it, which country produces it?

For some reason, it's showing the text in the e-mail as an attachment. I'm
running Office 2007, so I'm not sure if that's true of earlier versions or
if it's a quirk in 2007.

Has any one noticed that every message recd has a little paper clip in the
margine indicating that there is an attachment, even if there isn't one?

 

I have been noticing that every e-mail recd since Jan 5 has been showing
that.

I know what you mean about losing pics. I almost gave myself a heart attack
last night. A while back, I had dumped tons of pics from my computer cause
my hard drive was filling up. Well, I label all mine (FF pics, for Family
and Friends pics). And I have backups on CD's. And last night I was
transferring the pics from the CD's to my new laptop when I accidently
ERASED CD #1 of FF pics, which included the birth day pics of my oldest
grand daughter.. Man, I was just about to cry when I found a SECOND copy of
that CD.. Good think I like to wear both belt and suspenders LOL.. I'm gonna
make THREE copies now, and have one at a safe deposit box, one at home and
one at my other place in case one of them burns down...Then, I'll have a 4th
and 5th set on my computers.It also had TONS of my earliest fly
fishing/tying pics on it as well. I don't even remember making a second
copy, but I'm glad I did. I'm funny about pics like this cause when I was
16, my Mom had died the year before and daddy had married a practicing
witch and she burned all but a few of the pics we had of my Momma...Sorry
if this post seems off topic, but it really ain't cause my early fly fishing
and tying pics are invaluable to me as well. Specially since some of the
pics were of us taking my grand daughter in the boat fishing when she was
three MONTHS old.  Chuck

It was a mild crash... well enough to realize that 'this one is
history'... but it had still enough left to keep it breathing and (in Safe
Mode) get the files over to the new one. Darn job to restore it with
softwares and things like that. I made screen dumps of folders and lists, to
remember what I had and so on to make it easier, but it's still time taking
to restore. But I still consider myself lucky... I can live with losing
replaceable things. Pictures and files are valued differently.

OMG.. Crashed the whole computer I hope that doesn't happen.. I took out
the two year extended warranty that is supposed to cover that, but I've been
all week and am still only half finished moving my files, pics, etc from my
old computer to this one. I'd hate to lose all that. I have it all still on
the old computer and on CD, but still, all that work would be for nothing. I

Totally with you on that one... they went too far with their experiments
this time. My computer crashed and I had to buy a new one. I prefer the old
jar with XP before this new with Vista.

I'm soon getting back to tutoring again... and haven't yet gotten the real
hang of it. I'm also tutoring advanced Excel, but Excel in Office 2007 is
a labyrinth. I sure hope they still use old school stuff there. LOL

Chuck,

Jim uses programs that add little photo-things, and my pc won't pass them
direct either.  It shows a pop-up blocker-type message and asks me if I want
to open it. 

 

NOTE!  These, at least for my pc, carry over to replies, so Tony's reply
to Jim and the vfb gets a blocker also.  I just hit the 'accept' button and
allow it, because I know Jim.  Mark Romero created these also on every post-
it was the yellow smiley-faces he used.

 

When I reply to these messages, I get the pop-up that pictures will not be
added to the reply, even though there aren't any (they were blocked). 

I have to hit the 'send the darn thing anyway
