another possibility

Of course, I could also just go the live bait route and fish with one of these.

The goddard caddis

Tying my favorite caddis dry to take out west. Why ? because I don't know what to really bring along and gray caddis are every where and all trout love them.

A bare hook ..



Tie in to clumps of deer hair - spin....








Trim to the desired shape.











Add a gray hackle and two wood duck antennae



This looks like it'll catch a fish.

The Xian Daily from May 24 2007








HDW-MOBILE. What's it mean? Well, I can do more here than just send pictures from my Treo650. I do travel a bit. Above is an image - a full page scan of a newspaper from Xi'an. It is the front page of one of the largest daily papers there. Cultural heritage is not a small think there, it is a big thing. We we're doing the culminating conference of a large project, of which, this is an image and article about our work there. You'll have to learn Chinese is you want to read the article.


The image is in a flash zoom viewer. You can put the zoom and toolbar away by clicking on the gray edge of the windows. Otherwise clicking in the window allows you to zoom in on the page scan.
