no pics, there was no good sunset or anything

as for the wee flatties, they just dont appeal to me. they are more a hindrance than anything, but i dont mind putting in the blank hours for i know it just takes a knock on the rod and i have what i want. . .i guess thats bass fishing lol

yes dave, sat nite i will be up. looking forward to it

If you want a thrill try catching a 25lb carp on a fly rod!
