For the partially cooked ones what temp do you pull it? And how long does it take to finish in a crock pot/oven?

On bigger jigs, I powder coat, bake, then use clear nail polish with glitter in it. Looks nice. Not sure if it does anything.
We’re diving into the rabbit hole now. For small stream fishing with delicate presentations where roll casting is the norm, a double taper line is going to be best. However, that is probably a small...
I had 1494 a million years ago and gave it away (:crying:). I think it had a pressure pad in it but memory fails me in my old age. I have an old Shakespeare with a drag like that.
If you’re going to play that game, go all out!

They’re just clickers. The little spring thingies (technical term) can be turned to make it feel right. No drag on them.
Almost time! Three wt with an Allen Alpha 3/4 reel. Just walking the bank.

The made in USA ones go big. The others are fairly inexpensive. I have a couple 1492’s and a 1492 1/2 made in Asia that were fairly cheap but work well. New in the box under $20.
I got a few used...
I’ve always been happy with TFO rods (pro II) and Allen reels. An old Medalist reel can be had for few $ and they’re plenty good to handle trouts. Probably be best to go to a fly shop and ask around....
No. I use the bones then run it through a fat separator.
The KC135 guys at my base listed their alert facility in the real estate classifieds with the local paper. Something like 20 rooms, professional kitchen, spacious living/dining room, security fence,...
A high falootin fly pole is going to run a LOT more than seven bills.
Annual ground school. Sim training every six months. Company computerized ‘tests’ quarterly. Meh? You get used to it.
Worked for me. Needed a degree to become an officer and then into USAF pilot training. No degree=no wings. It was worth the effort.
Spend what? A buck, maybe 2. Pull in $108K? I want to live in that world. If the guy has a problem with it there’s no law against turning it back into the state/federal treasury as a donation. Send...
I know for certain that I turned loose the OK state record longnose gar. Caught it on a fly. Chased the critter for 15 minutes before I got hooked up. Too big to get in the boat so I tail roped it...
I have an offset stick burner. Excellent but takes practice and monitoring. An Egg which does a great job and is pretty close. A MES 40 that does an OK job. Need a smoke tube though. The chip tray...
Money to be made there! Bag it up then clean and dry the feathers. Put them up for sale on the fly tying forums.
(What could possibly go wrong?)
Peace and quiet. No batteries required.

I did peak contract flying for UPS for years. Now, I’m a guy that prides myself on being on time and ready to go. The UPS folks had me on edge. They monitor EVERYTHING. When we showed up, got in the...
Another vote for the EZ lap.
Royal Oak. Always works great. Maybe had one or 2 stones over the years but that was it. I bought 20 bags once when it went on sale. I had no issues. There’s a brand called ‘Cowboy’. Had 3 bags of...
I always peel the membrane. Just a little rub on the bottom. Most on top. I’ve used mustard, maple syrup, molasses, and other stuff as the glue. Never made a difference in the flavor. Now I don’t use...
I did 6 months of OKC to Singapore. Two weeks on, two off. Didn’t know what day it was most of that time. Living hell on earth. Got lots of airline miles, though. Made a ton of $ too. Just wore my...
MeTV plays 3 hours of the old ones on Sat mornings. 7 eastern. Popeye, Tom & Jerry, and the old looney tunes. I love the older ones from the 40’s and 50’s.
