    Default I'm lucky


    Not with fish, that comes and goes. Better since coming here to .com with more fish over the gunnel than ever. But back to the title. I'm lucky cuz I have several of my dot com brothers that live close to me. We fish together now and then and just generally enjoy each others company. Last nite I got in from work and settled in, and called TennTodd to bring his tying junk and come over. He got here about 8 and stayed a few hours. Him on one side of the table and me on the other. We tied some good lookin stuff and some I won't show to anyone but a fish. Fishin4crappies lives about an hour away. Be nice to get him down here and the 3 of us spend a few hours workin on our new found skills. Lots of fun, this tying thing. Glad to share it with y'all.

    skeetbum,
    Glad you had time off from the job to be home and have time for TennTodd to visit.
    Neither one of you told any fibs - right?
    By the way those pictures of your ties you have been posting sure look nice.
    You and TennTodd keep up the good work.

    Yea, I know what you mean. There's 5 of us here on CDC that lives in my small town, plus a few more that regularly comes over and fishes with us. We have some great get-togethers on the lake and somebody usually shoot a little bull while a few fish actually gets caught.:p

    Yea, Skeetbum and I had a good time the other night tying a few. I have gotten used my new Danvise and it works a lot better than a vice and a pair of vicegrips. I have tied over 20 now and have started to get a rythm. Thanks to Skeetbums teaching, I can catch fish with what I tie. I caught a bunch yesterday. Tight lines....
