I've been away from the qj a lot the last few years, not a place to visit when you really wish you could be in the Q and can't go. 
Over the last few months I've taking up fly fishing and selling the supplies.  Been chasing a few rainbows too. 
After months of selling and working, I'm getting a dream fly fishing experience.  On the morning of the 27th, I'll be airborne to Costa Rica,  Chasing  150lb tarpon on a fly rig with 30 lb line.  Damn I can hardly wait.  I'll take some pictures and post when I get back.

Costa Rica! How cool is that! #150 Tarpon...? Better you than me

Rascals can be fickle. When all else fails take a big chunk of catfish, attatch it to your fly, hand toss it out in the water and put your flyrod in a forked sticked. With just a wee bit of patience you should be able to get a good picture........you know, one of those fly fishing photos with the rod/reel clenched in your teeth with the fish at your feet in the shallows 

In 4 weeks, while many of you may be chopping ice for the fishing opener, I'm going to hanging with the big boys again off the coast of Costa Rica.  I'm pumped and ready to go.
