LM Trip to Chrisvd's private waters.

When you do, please kill it before it breeds. Bloody Gilroy's Spiced baitfish . . .

BWWWAAAHHHHAAA, probably turn out to be THE fly of the trip.

There again so could Barend's " Herminator " which I will take with, even if it's just for a "chuckle " around the fire.

Ahhh Herman; what memories you bring back of 2 months back when I did that fly; then had the session with Murray and NOW... as we speak I am doing 3 or so more flies before hitting the sack; if we must compare the flies I am putting out NOW vs. that 'THING'... amazing testimonial as a before / after for Murray

Take it with, LM-BASS will love it.

OK, back to the vice for another beauty.

How you wish ......

I bought the rod on an auction on this site ) from Barend.

It is a " Fly Dynamics " Slipstream, 8' 6", 4 piece 6/7# with a WOODEN reelseat rod.

Has anyone heard of this brand before ?????????????????

( Maybe I could get a "refund" in kind from Barend if it"s a k@k rod. )

[troutmaster]

Herman, "if it"s a k@k rod" then I will gladly demonstrate to the group the different FF ROD failure mechanisms after we're done with the PONCHOS

I just turned out 4 flies; must be some record I think; even did an all natural almost pure white fly [was working towards a baitfish picture I have printed - have some on the walls whilst tying these baitfish flies]... I have heard a story again recently, from a not so long time ago (only a few years), when NOTHING worked and a white baitfish type fly was tied on in desperation and suddenly it was as if a secret was unlocked... then I also recalled a recent post stating the same, hook-up and dropped fish on a white fly... Hmmm

I still want to do some weird combos with zonker and brushes before the trip... but time is few with toddlers around

Herman, that "baitfish" is so badly tied that only way you would be able to attach the tippet to it would be to tie it to the bend of the hook.

Ha ha ha hahahaha!!! Or wrap your tippet round the fly and apply 1 x superglue..

Retreating baitfish ?????????? Hmmmmm, maybe you've got something there

[chrisvd]

Chris, will we have cell reception at all the locations? If so, all networks?

Just wanna know whether the family will be able to reach us in the event of any emergency; or maybe worse, SHOULD WE NEED TO REACH CVILIZATION FOR HELP

Will I have 3G to upload pics of all my monster largies ?

We will have cell reception most of the time. 3G unfortunately is a rumour arround these parts. You will have to wait till you pass through Bloem for that.
