I'm planning to, if everything goes well. I'm not sure I'll go as a tier or just to visit everyone- so much less work just to visit. Undecided...

I stuck it in the TV and Cheryl sat down to watch it with me. She was amazed. She's seen me demo-ing the rope-dub for the last 8 years, but she said the DVD was even better than seeing me tie in person (that's hard to believe, since I'm so good-lookin'). 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. From my first view, I am very satisfied and I'm looking forward to getting a couple more initial reviews from seasoned tiers. If you have any questions, please fire away. And Byard- you get yours for free, of course (signature edition). I'll chat with you off-list.
