Bob –

My problem is more of a superstitious nature, I’m afraid.

[Zach Matthews]

Mickey –

Awesome dude!

[Zach Matthews]

Hey guys –

I’ve got a question about driftboats.

[Zach Matthews]

Chris here you go.

I might be able to clean this up some in photoshop when I get home.

Hey flybop –

Welcome to the board.

[Zach Matthews]

I hear that.

Zach

[Zach Matthews]

Good purchase, Abe; you will like this one.

What color did you get?

Zach

[Zach Matthews]

That’s great, Chad.

[Zach Matthews]

Jay –

The length of the podcast is a two part tradeoff.

[Zach Matthews]

Chad –

That is really cool man.

[Zach Matthews]

Hey Abe –

If we’re ever in the same area at the same time, for what it’s worth, I’d be happy to work with her too.

[Zach Matthews]

Abe –

You know what you ought to do?

[Zach Matthews]

Hey Jim –

I think the long and short of it is that instead of paying $10k, your expenses would be only a few hundred or less.

The ol’ classic March Brown hare’s ear wet fly spider. Also, numerous nymphs, emergers, and soft hackle patterns.

I also like the Cooksville English Grouse cape as well, because it has darker feathers.

[Zach Matthews]

Hey, speaking of grouse, what are you guys mostly using the feathers for?

[Zach Matthews]

I got to say I am amazed to hear about all the MAC issues. All the graphic designers I know use MACS and love them. They never mention anything about having any issues.

[Zach Matthews]

I agree entirely with Brett, and I found your post very interesting (and amusing) Tim.  The law of diminishing returns is one of the most powerful forces in fly fishing and has been the driving factor shaping the market ever since the post-graphite explosion plateaued.  I also greatly appreciate it when experts like Brett or John S. contribute their knowledge to the board; I think it really enriches the experience for all of us, particularly as this community applies so many different disciplines (photography, computers, writing) to fishing.

Hey, one of these days when I have time I am going to post questions on photography and writing. I have a Canon Rebel XTi and I am lost without a mouse.

[Zach Matthews]

I agree entirely with Brett, and I found your post very interesting (and amusing) Tim.

[Zach Matthews]

Hey guys –

I have another computer related question that has bothered me for a long time, which I think there’s enough expertise here to answer.

I started out using a 486 DX2 66Mhz in about 1992; that was the family’s first personal computer and I became the de facto expert.

Ah, that is what that white packing is for.

As an avid grouse hunter I have kept grouse feathers for years and I never had a problem. I do pluck them immediately and I do use borax. Then I place the ziploc bags in a separate area.

Also, I do supplement with a English grouse cape and Western grouse cape that I buy online (they are cheap to buy) to get extra shades, colors and sizes. But even those i put in separate bags and throw in some borax to be safe.

The only bug issues I have ever had came from bucktails, not bird feathers.
