Without time stamps we will need Tacks approval- changing your clothes  is a cute touch!

The crispness of the colors on the last one ("March") makes it my favorite.

It will go to committee

I will gladly submit all information required by the committee.

With an apparent DQ on jan/Feb I'd like to submit an additional March trout. Also like to thank the fella that tied me a "stone pony".... she worked !!!

I certainly have NOT. But I was feeling ambitious this morning, so here you go

April submitted...but hopefully not done!

Little brownie crushed a caddis (first dry take of the year). Numerous rainbows and browns were slamming a black/purple perdigon all day.

and then I snapped my tip on my 3 month old Echo Carbon XL 10' 3 wt. tippit must have wrapped on the tip eye as I felt a little tension when reeling in after snipping off flies and then just heard the snap.  Already orders a new tip ($20 (fine) + $15 for shipping(not fine)!!) - might take 2 weeks. I also submitted a claim as that seems a pretty shoddy tip to go like that
