Default Newbee, sort of,

Hello,
I'm new to the forum, but not to fly fishing, I've been reading this forum for some time now, I have learned quite a bit. Now that I have registered I hope still to learn and hopefully to pass on some of my knowledge to fellow fly fishers...

Welcome to the forum, Laura. Keep posting because you need to get your count up to have equal rights with the regulars, things like sending Private Messages and using the Classifieds.

Keep talking! It's only about 15. I think the logic was it would keep away people selling (and miss-selling) tackle, so called 'trolls' and other undesirables. I can't believe I beat 3lb Grayling (Jim) to the welcome. He's normally on the case within minutes. I can only presume he's out fishing,

Make yourself at home. Tell us what sort of fishing you like. Better yet if you can post reports with pictures. We love all that!

Thank you Sharkey, I'll see what I can come up with, my job keeps me very busy, so I can only post on my day off, like today, and in the better weather I'm fishing, naturally... heavy rain today...

The rain stops you fishing ?? I would have thought that if it is you only day to go you would go anyway ??

Welcome to the forum by the way

Hi Danny, yes every eight weeks, Casa over here, and I need the drink.
It's about 80f today and sunny, just off for the menu del dia, it's a hard life.
Take care Steven.
