One of my new "outdorsey" Lawtonian buddies informed me that he is a fly fishing instructor and loves tying his own flys. He has even created some pretty unique ones. I told him its something I've always wanted to get into, so he brought some things by and is going to give Lori and me some lessons. Thought G-San might enjoy this. I may have to get him some IH pants to replace the Duluths he's always wearing.
This one, made from deer hair, he invented and named: "lame perch" because it floats on its side like a lame perch.
This one he referred to as Mr. Deadly:
Mind you, this is the same guy that only hunts with an English long bow, and hasn't purchased "store bought" meat in over 5 years. He's also made his own buckskin clothes. He's going to teach me how to tan hide so I can get Nietenhosen some deer leather this season to make me a fat boy western shirt.

A longbow? He certainly doesn't take the easy route, does he?
-
Dude, he worked at a living history museum, and used to, key word: successfully, hunt IN BUCKSKIN!!!
This dude is a serious mountain man. I really enjoy him, and I think he's excited to pass some of his knowledge to an appreciative younger person.

More fishing eye-candy
I love this scrimshaw.

Anybody here do any Tenkara? It's a simplified Japanese fly fishing setup with no real. I'm thinking about getting a starter set and giving it a whirl out on the farm ponds and little creeks around Southwestern Oklahoma.

Just got off the phone with him…I'm about to make a bad decision...

had a great nights fishing last night. just as the sun had set, i got a serious bite. reel started screaming like crazy and i immediately knew what i had hooked; a sea trout! the fish was probably 60-70 metres out when it started swimming towards the big rocks i was standing on, but 50 metres to the right of me. i was running out of line so the rock hopping commenced. after approx 10 min i landed a beautiful silver torpedo weighing 6 lbs. i was using light gear so the adrenaline was out the roof!
