Sudsy Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Would you guys that are going please find featured fly tyer John Kumiski and give him a big fat smooch on the cheek for me??? Tell him I miss my favorite fishing bud. Thanks! My 11 year old has started tying so I'll be bringing him along to watch some of the masters at their craft (and see what kind of goodies I can find ) Sudsy... tell John that I told him to make sure your kid goes home with a fly he tied. Tam, you'll be glad to know the kid is now officially hooked. John took him behind the table and taught him how to tie a Clouser. Must have spent at least 1/2 hour working with him. Thanks for the intro, Johns a heck of a nice guy and a very good teacher - Ryan really took right to him. Could you e-mail these shots to him and let him know that as soon as Ryan got home he went straight his room to hang Johns fly on the wall and then to the vice and spent the entire night tying away I just wanta play everyday despite small nagging injuries -- and go home to a woman who appreciates how full of crap I truly am. ~ Crash Davis Social Distancing since 1962 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianM38 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Your son was sitting right in front of mine yesterday in the free tying lesson for kids. He was doing a great job. Mine is hooked as well. I spent most of my money on beer, women and fishing gear.... the rest I just wasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLDig Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 make it a point to check out Bob Mead. if it's the same Bob Mead I think it is, his work is amazing. Hopefully he has one of his mosquito flies with him. I've got one downstairs packed away. Completely awesome!! Ack. Foo. I want to die from a good old fashioned case of living.

Sudsy Posted November 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Hung out with Bob for a long time. You were right, great guy, lot of laughs. The mosquito fly is amazing. The $600 walking stick fly is so perfect i was tempted to squash it.
