dave robinson Posted October 12, 2005 Author Share Posted October 12, 2005 This week at the Northern Lights we have Michael Dell (aka The Stauffer Stocker) Tying a Catatonic Leech (No, it's not a drink made by steeping cat hair in tonic water) There will be no sleeping through this demonstration. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dell Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Dave, You should know the difference between a "stalker" and a "stocker". A stalker creeps up on wild trout and hooks them without letting them know he is behind them. A stocker follows the hatchery truck around. See you tomorrow. Michael p.s. Surprises may occur.

dave robinson Posted October 12, 2005 Author Share Posted October 12, 2005 Ahh Haa. You caught the double entendre. I would say that due to your habitiat work that produces more fish You are indeed a "stocker" although not the kind that drives the hatchery truck. I'd call the truck driver a "stocker" too, but the truck chaser just "lazy". For your skills sneaking up on the "stockies" I'd say you are also a "stalker". So that means you can wear two hats. A Cowboy hat (or F&W hat) for the "stocker" And a Shelock Holmes hat also known as a deer "stalker" for the sneaky part. Stay away from the meerschaum pipe though. Smoking is bad for you.

dave robinson Posted October 12, 2005 Author Share Posted October 12, 2005 Double Entendre - from the French meaning double meaning or intention. Just tryig to raise the tone around here a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vince Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Dave Ah..now I know why you had a smirk on your face at the meeting. I am now, thanks to you, a learned man or is that a learn ed man. I do believe the correct saying is... to raise the bar not to raise the tone. Having said that the more correct version may be ....to find the bar, to sit at the bar and to have a drink at the bar. Ah, but I sit here and pontificate. See you next week Dave Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerBob Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 October 26th, 2005Speaker: Dennis SouthwickTopic: Basic Stream Entomology Comments: Dennis will provide an introduction to the maintypes of insects you will encounter on streams and how toidentify the major groups. If you’re nice to him, he might eventell you what the patterns he commonly uses to imitate them. -- http://flyangler.ca/index.php?option=com_c...id=93&Itemid=32 I will also be picking up Red Green Swap Flies tonight from the participating swappers present, and bring duct tape for Dennis if he hasn't completed his flies yet. Actually cudos to Dennis, he's the only person whom has reportedly only used duct tape as the sole ingredient on the pattern. Looking forward to seeing them. Alberta Al may get the "tape job" instead from the looks of things... or Doc whom is also MIA. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave robinson Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 (edited) Duct tape the Prez to the wall.... Does that fall into the category of being a "fly on the wall"? If so, then what kind would it be? Cad is Fly? Edited October 26, 2005 by dave robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave robinson Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 For November 9th at Northern Lights we have Dipper Dan on deck. He will be tying up a Wiggler (or is that Wriggler). This is a two-part nymph that's supposed to Wiggle (Wriggle) without letting the fish wiggle (wriggle) its way off the hook. and no, it's not a worm immitation.
