the new season cometh!

[johnmac]

Call it what you want...... but i am sober........'ish!

But as the new season approaches, i have to compliment those that pay for and run the site and i suppose with it, the members, after all, it is they who make it what it is and a web-site is only as good as its members!

I've only been a member for one season, but in that season, if it were not for these members i would have chosen the wrong rod, had no idea with lines or for that matter flies and most importantly, i would not have met the people that i have nor would i have had benefited from their advice, and good advice it has been!! ;D

Keep up the good work folks! and hopefully the site will have a cracking 2007!...... and i'll get my first Salmon

Thanks for all the help and advice folks! keep up the good work!

Where will that first be caught? I wish you well in finding it and experiencing the moment the line moves off... ;D

I'm very confident you will break your duck this year John. Nice flies!

Tight lines

no dropper!??! you know me...i love an excuse.... and if i fish a dropper and lose it...then i can claim it to have been huge!!

But seriously...i'm well up for this season! and whilst it may not be a treble... i think it will be a Tube fly... and home-tied all the way! ;D

Thanks for the words of wisdom!

John.

For once the weather in Caithness seems milder than Devon!

You can get the video by going to www.stv.tv/content/news/north_scotland/ and following the link on that page. It is about the Thurso. Anyone got word on the lads from this forum fishing the Helmsdale?

[elwyman]

They probably spent most of the day in the pub! ;D
