Great pix as always, Tynan19 - - you've got a good eye -

Wanted to let you guys know I haven't forgotten ya - I just wanted to take a little more time doing it since it's gonna be an 8x10 or larger eventually.

I've been time starved lately, between Mrs Crafty being sick and finding out one of my dogs has a torn ACL, so I've lined up surgery for her at Angell Memorial Veterinary Hospital in Boston.

Whoops, I mean my pooch not the missus.....my bride's got meds that are finally helping...

Anyway, check your regular email in the next week -

Again, compliments on the nice scenics - you've inspired me to start shooting again in the winter - got my eyes on a Nikon D-90 and that way I can also use all my old lenses -

Keep up the good work!

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Chuck, no worries take your time. I have to decide which one to get also. I like the idea of having a digital HD movie camera in the D90. Thanks for the compliments.

Took a nice hike with snowshoes today. River was a lot more iced in than I thought it would be. Lost a full flybox under the ice so that pissed me off. Might have to head back with an axe.

Nope 5 min in my flybox slid into the water and got pushed under the frozen river. I went in after it as it was just sitting under the lip. When I jumped in I had dislodged a thick piece of ice from the shore and that floated down and took the box with it. Sucks as it was a full box. Went back yesterday and the river is up a foot with ice dams all over the place so who knows where it will end up. I will keep walking till I hopefully find it.

Thanks Bill. No excuse needed but lost some nice wet flies/streamers. Could always use some small dries which I can't yet tie, Royal Wulff, Adams. Hopefully we can meet up this spring.

those wulffs are PITA. that double wing post is a a pain, adams are bad, it's just a double palmer.
Stay with the easy ones, the wets and streamers catch more fish than dries IMO
