I'm still around. Not fishing or tying as much but still get out a few times each season.

Cheers,

Folks: I'm still here too. Just haven't felt up to it as for the last two yrs after covid TRIED to kill me. I spent over 70 days in a coma,kidneys started shutting down etc etc. As soon as they'd fix one thing something else would pop up,with the latest thing being a positive cologuard test and I'm supposed to have the ole colonoscopy to get that checked out.
 
my docs have all told me that I had the worse case of covid they have seen and lived to tell about it. I still cannot walk without the aid of a walker but God has seen me this far so I don't think He's going to fail me now. I did lose one of my younger brothers this last July. He went to Wal-Mart, got inside the door and he just feel over dead. There happened to be a gold sematin right there and he gave my brother CPr till the got there and because of that we were able. Donate my brothers organs which either saved the lived or improved the lives
 
On a better topic, two months ago we closed on a new home and are still haven't finished moving which is a pain but we love the new place and it's only 5-10 minuites from two city parks, which are both stocked with bass and bluegills. And I did get to go fishing three times last Spring and we did fish each trip. Then, three and six months ago respectively, we welcomed two new grand daughters which brings the total to 17 and 18 total and paw pawpaws job is to hold and spoil them. We even have one great grand daughter. Now, I turn 65 tomorrow, but that don't seem old enough to be a GREAT grandfather lol. Well, sorry for writing a BOOK here but trying to condense two Yrs into one email ain't easy for a blow hard like me lol, Chuck

Hi Chuck:
 
So glad that you are still alive and kicking. So far, and I'm getting up there with 12 more years than you and still do not have any grandchildren.

I haven’t been very active for a while, whether it’s posting to the group, tying or even fishing. Looked @ my tying station the other day, thinking about tying some bass streamers. Only got out on the water a couple times last year, hopefully that will change. I’d be up for a virtual swap.

How many of us are on the facebook vfb page?  I was thinking we could swap but instead of mailing a box of flies just post a picture on the facebook, no postage.  They think a lot of themselves and are just to much now.  It would give us all some ideas from each other but not the consistency of tying a dozen or more of the same fly.

I'm still hanging on. Though I don't understand why I even bother with wearing waders. Seems I spend considerly more energy trying to climb up out of the creek than fishing it. Nothing worse than having cold H²O up to your knees inside your waders
