Default The bug is back

I used to fish a lot, and then I got a job as a fisheries biologist....that pretty much killed my fishing bug for many years. But now that I'm off the boats and pretty much desk bounds, it's coming back. After seeing some pix of local bonefish, I'm about to jump back into the mix, and start another expensive hobby....fly fishing.

I'm going to use part of my economic stimulus check to get started with a 9wt set up and some casting lessons. Hopefully, I'll be able to spend my birthday next month playing tug-of-war with a decent bonefish. I'll post pix when it happens.
