• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

I had a great time meeting up with John today. He’s every bit as nice a guy as you would expect. I had these two with me (old picture):

We both caught several fish, too.

And in true John DF fashion, he came bearing gifts. A sweet 70’s Case and one of his amazing slips, both of which are in my pocket now.

What a great time! You guys caught some nice fish. Beautiful Case and slip Bart, John’s generosity never fails. I bet you had to keep a close eye on that Boker though!🤣🤣🤣
I bet they are :cool: We don't have Bluegills here, probably the nearest we have are Perch, which give a nice fight for their size :thumbsup:
And good eating as well. 😊
Have a good week everyone :) Starting mine with my Hartshead Barlow, and a William Rodgers Penknife :thumbsup:

Happy Birthday to your wife, Taylor. :cool::thumbsup:

Thanks, Bart. :)

Don't go ruining my bad rep. ;)
After seeing your Brookie, it has moved well up my list again. 🤠:thumbsup:
Great picture, Bart. 🤠:thumbsup:
I was so excited to be catching fish, I kept forgetting to take pictures.
I only took one of the Bluegill because I know Todd was so fond of them.
You are very welcome, my friend. :)
I'm carrying the #71 you gifted me and will post a picture of it below.
Nice fish John, I'm glad you had a great time
Thanks, Jack. :)

Oh... He didn't break it out until he knew I was headed home. 🤣
 
During our fishing trip yesterday, Bart gave me this GEC #71.
I absolutely love it! He modified the blade shape and rounded the handle covers.
Now I think it is a whole lot more comfortable and useful. Thank you very much, my friend.
He also had a really cool lanyard with a stag bead that he'd made, but I'm putting that one on a slip I'm finishing up for myself.

Just in time for Micarta Monday

Thanks, John. I know the feeling. That was the only one I took.
