Great pictures, really love those floppy eared pups.http://www.uplandjournal.com/ is a great site for those kind of pics and they even have a fly fishing section, very similar to IA over there everyone uses real names.
The Retriever Journal is another great

[Mark Schafer]

I wondered if anyone would notice the BS repellent.

Neal,
My pictures are terrible. This started as my dad’s idea, now I can’t pass a barn sale or auction.

this has me fired up to do a slide show.

[Mark Schafer]

Very cool stuff Neal. You’ve set the bar pretty high, let me see what I have here.

[Mark Schafer]

Nothing like a good challenge,what patterns and sizes are you using now.

Spencer, your a brave man.

The one on the left I have 2 of and 1 on the right is a work in progress. The stove came out of my grandparents first house(only heat they had).
That thread is a great idea I’ll let you start, I’d love to see some of your stuff.

Tim,
We typically hit the water about 9:00 PM and fish till about 4:00 every year there’s a rumor that night fishing will canceled . Daytime is a bit of a cluster.
If your in Ann Arbor you should definitely come down to Ohio and fish with us.
Call me if your interested or just need some info, always willing to talk fishing.
MS
do you ever fish the Huron

[Mark Schafer]

We only fish at night,flies only, no kill water… Orvis hatch is during the day.

[Mark Schafer]

As long as someone has already brought up fall fishing in Michigan perhaps we should float the idea of a northern IA conclave. a salmon trip on the PM would be perfect.

[Mark Schafer]

Being part of the swap I think over 50 of those hits are mine alone and most of those came the night I had to many beers trying to figure out what pattern to tie.

[Mark Schafer]

Brett,
looking forward to some pictures.
MS..
