Hi Gary,
they are lovely young girls. Lonnie and Selma.
I just came back from the hospital and so far we had complications, but
all could be handled. Thanks to all of you!
The next few days will be very important.

Folks,
some of you know my youngest daughter Anna. She attended with me
the sowbug some 14 years ago. In the meantime a nice and very
intelligent young lady, she is married and is working as a lawyer
in the area of food safety.
She was pregnant with twins, and yesterday she had to give birth.
It was no as scheduled, and way too early. They need to do an
emergency-caesarian within few minutes, luckily she was already in
one of the best hospitals which is specialized for preterm delivery.
All 3 are alive, Anna is doing well but still suffers from the
rather rude treatment.
The 2 babies are stable but are on risk. The hospital are able to
help when it happens after a certain duration of the pregnancy,
and the babies are exact on this day - not even one day extra.
Each baby has one nurse which is exclusively monitoring this
single child. as they work 8h shift and monitoring is needed all
the time, this are 3 nurses for one baby. Just to give you an
impression where we are.
We pray that this turns out well.
Rene

Each baby has one nurse which is exclusively monitoring this single child. as they work 8h shift and monitoring is needed all the time, this are 3 nurses for one baby. Just to give you an impression where we are. We pray that this turns out well. Rene -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.

Re: [VFB] What's everyone doing?
I had some problems with gmail, ended up with 2 accounts, so I removed the first one, it didn't like my password and will just use the new one. We are between Island Park ID and west Yellowstone until it's time to go to Bozeman for the FFI Expo in July. The weather is thunder storms in the afternoon or evening. Not a lot of fishing this year so far, I got my best freshwater fish on the Pecos R outside Santa Fe. We got to visit with Deb and William her new guy. She set up her tying stuff to get back into it. I'm working on the strangest order yet, known as a Prom Dress or tinsel fly, they are a quick but dull tie. Think I'll stick with teaching, that's the best.

Re: [VFB] What's everyone doing?
Good to hear from you guys. Gary, in years past there have been some large trout caught from under my dock. Whenever I would see boats there in the early mornings, I knew word got out about a big Trout under the dock. Gary, thanks for the prayers, they help.Rene have a good trip and post some fish photos.Arkansas Tony On Friday, June 28, 2019, 4:19:22 AM CDT, Henk Verhaar wrote: As far as I remember the lower reaches of the dordogne should have runs of shad...

Alan, We are not having a problem right here on the river, all creeks are blown out. If they open the flood gates then we will worry. The last time they opened the gated we had water under the sheds and in the yard. No damage to us but some on the river lost their docks.Rene, will give Miss Dot a big huge for you.Arkansas Tony On Thursday, June 27, 2019, 3:12:28 PM CDT, 'Rick Zieger' via VFB Mail wrote: No effect here.

hi Tony, nice to hear from you. You can send some water to Cologne. We have a lot of hot temperatures here. Wind is blowing hot air from Africa towards us. And not so much rain.

Re: [VFB] What's everyone doing?
Rene thanks for the update. Great news on the growing family. Grandchildren are great. Two of mine want me to take them fishing this weekend. Ryan is eight and his brother Declan is four. We'll go for panfish. Might try a bit of Tenkara to expose them to fly fishing.

Re: [VFB] Cheap but good fly line
Thanks, Chuck. For the past few years I have been buying expensive SA textured lines because they are so supple and tangle free. In the last year or so they’ve been tough to get. Turns out someone did a study that showed that the sound a textured line made when stripping through the guides spooks fish! So I could use some cheap smooth line.

Dear Don O Sorry to learn of your continued medical problems. Don’t give up on the long term as I am sure that you will eventually get there. I am in absolutely no hurry; in fact, I don’t even need the swap flies. Your health is more important to me than that. When you announced this swap, I really thought that you were recovering ok from your stroke but it now seems you have dealt another blow. I’m sure you will get there Don, but it is going to take longer than you, I or the rest of the swappers figured. Take time to heal first. I want you to concentrate on getting better and don’t worry about the swap at all.

Chuck,
There is an epoxy that is made FOR plastics. I used it on a cattle
repeater syringe piece that broke. This piece takes quite a bit of
stress and it is still holding after at least 6 months of pretty heavy
use. I cannot remember the exact brand but I found it at Lowes.

[VFB] 5 minute epoxy needed
Folks: My transducer for my fish finder broke in two and although CA super glue works on holding it together, if it gets bumped in the slightest it re-breaks. So (unless somebody has something else in mind like some type of Gorilla glue etc???) I'm thinking some type of 5 minute, two part epoxy would work, but I don't know a brand/type that would work best. It's made of a hard plastic I'm thinking a hard polyethylene maybe??? Is what the transducer is made of. What I'm going to do differently this time though is to mount the transduce up front on the foot-controlled trolling moto shaft so it don't get bumped each time I launch the boat. I tried mounting it higher by a cpl inches, but when z do that, the sonar against the back of the boat gets interfered with and bounces part of thee echo off the back of the boat. Thanks for ANY help. Luckily, where it broke does not interfere with the operation of the transducer/fish finder. I tried to find just a transducer and wire on ebay, Amazon etc, but to no avail. Ppl on there have the same fish finder as I have with no transducer LOL. I guess it's a common breakage point.

RE: [VFB] Re: Cheap but good fly line
Keith: Thanks a lot for the info. I’m very happy with the Orvis line (which is the https://www.orvis.com/p/clearwater-fly-line/5a3h which I got on sale for $29.95). In fact, I just walked in the door from fishing at a local city park lake (caught three little bluegills ☹☹☹ ) LOL. The Orvis line worked great. So did the no named eBay special, which my wife used on her rod and she was happy with it as well. It’s just a no name line from China. I figure it’s an over- stock/clearance etc from some other line maker. Anyway, we had fun, caught a few fish and got to fish and that’s the most important thing.

Bill: Yes, I cast them both on my Wal Mart special $39.95 Crystal River “Cahill” rod. I do se a cpl bells and whistles the Orvis has that the no name doesn’t line welded loop ends on both ends for easier tie on to the backing and to the leader ad well as the fact that the Orvis line has it’s name, w/f and length stamped onto the line for easy recognition.

RE: [VFB] Cheap but good fly line
Neville: They are both floating, w/f line. You’re right, the Orvis will probably out last the no name, (it should for the price difference) but it’s Chinese made too, plus I can buy 5 spools of the cheap stuff for the SALE price of the Orvis. Don’t get me wrong. I’m VERY happy with the Orvis line. But I’m happy (so far) with the cheap stuff too. I’m going to the lake tomorrow I hope and will give a “post fishing” report on both as neither has ever been wet yet.

[VFB] Fly Line Special from the Fly Shack.
Folks: Here's other deals on good fly lines. It's been years since I bought any of the Cortland 333, but if I remember correctly it was a good line.(Good, but not GREAT I think) And I think I paid $29.95 several years ago. Good sale on the Cortland "Trout Boss" line below a well. I've never tried it, but for less than half price, if I needed more line I'd go for it. And it's double tapered so it's like a "two fer one" Chuck https://flyshack.com/DisplayItem.aspx?src=Mailing282&ItemID=116394 https://flyshack.com/DisplayItem.aspx?ItemID=116390 --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.

BTW, WE went back o the new city park lake we have here today and got skunked ☹☹☹, Chuck From: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Phxflytyer Sent: Saturday, April 13, 2019 8:32 AM To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [VFB] What makes a fly rods weight size??? Chuck: The big Shakespeare rod is probably a fiberglass rod so that is why it is thicker. And conversely the Berkeley is most likely a graphite rod therefore thinner. The advances in technology and the use of graphite and their characteristics are why the thinner rod behaves like the thicker rod. The fiberglass rods are generally more whispy, or noodley. The graphite rods have different actions because of the type of graphite used and how many layers of graphite they use. That is why there are so many different “actions.” Hope this helps?

Re: [VFB] What makes a fly rods weight size???
Chuck: The big Shakespeare rod is probably a fiberglass rod so that is why it is thicker. And conversely the Berkeley is most likely a graphite rod therefore thinner. The advances in technology and the use of graphite and their characteristics are why the thinner rod behaves like the thicker rod. The fiberglass rods are generally more whispy, or noodley. The graphite rods have different actions because of the type of graphite used and how many layers of graphite they use. That is why there are so many different “actions.” Hope this helps?

[VFB] What makes a fly rods weight size???
Folks: I have a question about fly rod weights. I'm sure I've asked this before but can't remember the answer. Heck, I can't tell ya what I ate or lunch yesterday LOL. Anyway, I have a big ol's Shakesphere rod that is rated a 5/6 wt and it's a huge rod, being about my ring finger in size at the base. Then, I have a Berkeley rod that the base is way smaller than my pinky finger at it's base. Their action is about the same and both are rated a "medium' that I stamped on the rods, but that tiny Berkeley is stamped as a 6/7 wt. So my question is how can a behemoth be a 5/6 wt and a tiny rod be stamped a 6/7wt???

RE: [VFB] Pink Squirrel swap update 3/15
Tony and Don: I have non diabetic nerve pain in my legs and feet and it hurt so bad it’s as Tony said it would make a grown man ry. The pain management doc I was seeing put me on Lyrica and it helped for a cpl yrs to a point. Then, I started seeing the family doc I see now in 2013 and he didn’t like Lyrica as he said it had too many side effects (and the Lyrica had stopped helping me anyway) with other meds I was taking, so he asked me if I’d ever taken Neurontin and I told him “yrs ago, but it did no good, but I’m in such pain I’ll give it a whirl again. I tried it and walla, just like a magic bullet, it stopped my leg and foot pain in it’s track within about three days. They say your body changed every seven yrs or so, so I guess maybe that’s why it didn’t work at all some 20-25 yrs ago, but works like a charm now. The Neurontin that is. So anyway, it might be worth asking your respective docs about trying it. Sometimes med that have been around 50 yrs work better than the newer ones I guess. Good luck and prayer to you both either way.

I have also developed the shakes. I had planned to tie at one session at the Sowbug Show in two weeks but I am have to drop out on it.

So for the last 3 months I’ve been battling back to see what’s going to be my life. I am just able to get back to my fly room after 3 months out of commission.

So now I head to the bench to sort, divide, and repackage 18 sets of flies, plus tie my set. I’ll give an update after my first flies. I believe I’m waiting for one set to arrive. If my hand works, it shouldn’t take very long. If it’s all gone from the pain, I have a fall-back plan or two. Cheers, DonO Subject: [VFB] Pink Squirrel swap update?

Hi Gary and all swappers, I’m still here battling to come back from the stroke.
Found recently that my debilitating pain is called Degerne-Roussy Syndrome or
“post-stroke central pain syndrome.” Also called thalamic stroke pain syndrome.
Long story short, the pain meds have failed and left me worse off with the pain
plus the side effects- which are themselves terrible. So for the last 3 months
I’ve been battling back to see what’s going to be my life. I am just able to
get back to my fly room after 3 months out of commission. I’m doing plenty good
health-wise- it’s just the pain issues are out of hand. The pain gets so bad I
can’t use my right hand even though it can do some things. It also effects my
right leg that way. So now I head to the bench to sort, divide, and repackage
18 sets of flies, plus tie my set. I’ll give an update after my first flies.
I believe I’m waiting for one set to arrive. If my hand works, it shouldn’t
take very long. If it’s all gone from the pain, I have a fall-back plan or two.
Cheers, DonO Subject: [VFB] Pink Squirrel swap update? Don, actually I just
want to be sure you are OK. Gary--
