Sorry, gang. I got off topic of fishing and tying too.
My apologies.

Remembering back to the summer of 1946 during the polio epidemic,
myself an all the kids in our town where I grew up were restricted to
our own yards for fear that we'd contract the polio virus. Believe
me, that was a long, hot and miserable summer, since it ruined our
daily game of ARMY. My pals and I were going to build a fort as our
command center ! I also remember the foggers coming around every day
that summer, spraying DDT to kill the mosquitos. DDT may have been
bad, but it is credited by the World Health Organization with saving
90 million lives during the period it was used.

P.S. Wonder how many kids play army these days!

Yes indeed - where did it come from? And I believe that to cause such a
noticeable rise in the fish, it must have been pretty heavy use.
Someone, as
Jimmy says, is definitely in deep kimshee.

Fishing is not a matter of life or death.
It's much more important than that!
