    Thanks for the wildflower clarification. I’m still learning those.

    I use a bladder and usually take a Katadyn Vario along.

    I watched Hugh Hartsell tie some flies a few weeks ago and he stated numerous times that it was his opinion that you should wear gloves when working with lead. I wonder if there is any concern with “lead free” wire. Is it really lead free?

    A friend of mine’s wife showed up with some hackle in her hair. She has gotten real big into hula hooping. Apparently, all of those chicks are into the hackle hair. What a waste.

    I have been on the fence about this for sometime. I’ll be picking one up tomorrow.

    No, but we had some kinda freak snowstorms that messed me up.  I have some different land scouted this year that (thank God) is a tiny bit less vertical.

    We dealt with the snow. Hard to hunt in but easy to track em when there on the ground.

    I don’t know what “less vertical” grouse hunting is. Are you sure your not quail hunting?

    Thanks for the compliments.

    She is a GSP and her name is Hazel. She is almost 17 months and is bird crazy.

    We only mess with the planted birds as a warm up to the season. East Tennessee is home so we hunted around her a good deal last year and were able to find a bird or two.

    We are no stranger to travel either. Got to make two trips up north last year and did really well. We will return to the north woods this October and then head out to Kansas in November to to tangle with the pheasants.

    Zach, did you ever get a chance at a grouse last season?
