It Starts Now for Me
I've been back for a couple of days and 'The Neighbor' has already harassed me about getting out and doing some fishing. Well, today the weather cooperated and I was able to get out for a few hours. 'A Spot' It looks pretty typical for up here in the mountains - a free-stone stream that … Continue reading It Starts Now for Me
SRS Spring 2022 Meeting
We held our initial meeting of the year yesterday. We had 26 members in good standing and can consider it fairly well attended. While we did not have a presenter (correction edit here - thanks Barb!) for this meeting, we seemed to manage with a few discussions of business that we needed to address. One … Continue reading SRS Spring 2022 Meeting

According to the PA Pressroom (released on 24JAN2022), the state-wide opener is … Continue reading Friday Night Flies Presents…

Don't get too excited folks as this is just a post about the birds that I usually see around the bird feeders at our home. I've been known to do this a time or two a year. So, if birds … Continue reading Going to the Birds!

NAHOOP!!!! ... fly tying. I've only met him through SRS and only over the phone. We had taken to calling the membership a year or so ago - just to see how everyone was doing and to see if anything was on the minds of our members. One particular contact sticks out to this day. … Continue reading Friday Night Flies Presents….

Aka NAHOOP... Fly Tying It's been a while hasn't it? And this evening's submissions are contributed from 'The Neighbor'. My tying den is a wreck and I need to do some serious cleaning out before I start to tie. Hopefully I'll accomplish this and display/contribute a few ties in the next installment. I preface tonight's … Continue reading Friday Night Flies Presents…
Ornaments, Memories, and Friends
This is not a report from Slate Run or has very much to do with fishing the area. It's a Holiday Greeting and is a bit picture heavy so it may take a bit longer than usual to load. It's getting that time of year when many decorate and prepare for the holidays. We've set … Continue reading Ornaments, Memories, and Friends
