And oh yeah -- it's the time to tie on those longer leaders. My favorite for this sort of thing remains the <a href="http://troutunderground.com/2006/11/08/leader-madness-sullys-extraterrestrial-underground/" rel="nofollow">Sully Extraterrestrial leader</a>. Also, fleece pants AND a thin layer of some wicking material next to your skin. Otherwise you're screwed. Smells; You tried that “hot babes in raincoats” scam on me last year.

Any recommendations or suggestions for this wide-eyed, over-eager fall novice besides the usual (fleece, patience, and a flask)? Good luck with that move, Tom. I used to forget between moves how awful they are, but not after the last one...now I'm sure they suck for all time. Like The Who said, won't get fooled again.

Real men, who don't spend their days packing, hauling and unpacking boxes or installing new kitchen sinks just 'cause the old one wasn't trendy enough. No, I haven't been out either...

I haven't fished in days, yet the weather's been perfect for BWOs -- cloudy, wet, light drizzle -- and word has it there have been some excellent hatches.

Tom is losing. He called me by mistake yesterday. It was not a happy person I was talking to as he thought he was talking to the phone company. Also a call I will remember, and he will too. I will see to that. Keep him in your thoughts... I think Father Chandler ran into the phone company and/or web company. Tom is losing. He called me by mistake yesterday.
