I pass the time by watching football. Patriots! Let's Gooooooo!!!! When I'm not watching football, fishing open water, or working... I play Living room balloon football with my kids. Clear the furniture and we play tackle football with a balloon. It's absolutely awesome!!!

I put the boat away last weekend. Seems I just don't have the urge to fish cold weather in the boat any more. So it's back to the fly tying and rod building bench. I've been doing some further reorganizing in the basement shop. I don't like working on concrete so I'm installing a raised substrate OSB flooring product in my work area. Should have it all done this weekend.

It all started with a new fly tying vise. I decided I needed to lower my bench a bit because of the vice design and one thing lead to another. Next thing I knew I was moving everything around.

Ah well, it keeps me from counting my fingers anyway

still stream fishing with a dry fly no less and catching browns 7-13 inches; higher water brings out the streamer and the nymph!I'll fish until the air and water temps. drop below 45.

Thanks if you like that you should look at page 1 to see the monster I caught in the lower Niagara river its huge I got it at a new public fishing area with easy access the only bad thing is it closed down until spring

Been hunting 3G from bow into gun season now. The ATV got some miles on it this fall and just changed the oil and put on my ice fishing drop basket to get ready for upstate ice season. Can't wait.
