More trip prep ~ tying of some Vinnie's Iso-nymphs. I tied some with and without wire heads pictured below. I'm starting to get excited about this trip in a couple of weeks even though it will be a short one, just two days. But hey, two days with your son fly fishing, what could be better. Scott is coming to the house this weekend and we will get all of our final plans made... Should be fun and we've got to have better weather than last time, right? So stay tuned...

Doug they look so delish they would likely make my brains fall out. As the sign says "Breakfast anytime". Day before Easter, I had some scrod, in the reefer that was getting old. I cooked it up for breakfast. Outstanding! Cast iron cookware rules.
ReplyDeleteYou got that right John.....
DeleteDoug as John mentioned breakfast anytime.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you favor black pepper. When I was in the Army in the 60's I would cover my food with black pepper, it just seemed to make the food taste better. I still do it to this day.
Yes Alan, nothing like fresh ground pepper.... especially on biscuit gravy, eggs, etc.... I love it.
