    New art piece.. SFR

    Sort of fly fishing related since I thought it looks like flies! My friend who painted it didn't intend it to be flies, but art is in the eye of the beholder! I wanted a couple of others, that were popular with others as well. She'll paint me some similar stuff and I'll put them with this one...

    Caramels

    Key is to stir it well for the last 10 minutes and take it off when it hits 242 on the thermometer.. you can step away for short periods of time. I've made these 30ish or more times and can also tell from the color and viscosity. Cheers!

    Key West trip next Spring

    Have some friends who just moved down near Miami, so will be visiting early next year! Would love some guide recommendations? Bonefish and tarpon mainly! I know of more than a few guides, by reputation only though. I'll be fly fishing exclusively, they'll probably throw gear for the most...

    NFR Xbox X or S vs PS 5

    Yeah, not fishing related, although I wouldn't mind a good fishing game.. more into 1st person shooters, racing and fly simulators, and some strategy games.. Prices are similar, and leaning towards the Xbox S, but curious what others have and why? Would love to have it so I can play against my...
