Ladis and Gents,
Sorry, it has been a while since being on the forums. It has been a wild and crazy few months. I have landed in the area of never ending sand, and will be here for quit some time. With no chance of fishing, I have turned the spare time into making trolling lures(wedding rings).

Jeremy, thank you for your service and for protecting this great country. I will pray that all of you return home. My little brother is there now and will return home in December. Be safe and Go Army!!!!! I have to go with my brother.

Keep your head down buddy. See you upon your return!

Jeremy, what in the hell are you doing in Afghanistan? Are you with a squadron or IA?

JEREMY BE SAFE AND THAT YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE ..IT IS GUYS LIKE YOU THAT MAKE THIS COUNTRY GREAT AND SAFE FOR THE REST OF US TO DO WHAT WE WANT TO DO ( FISHING AND SPENDING TIME WITH OUR FAMILEYS ) WHEN MY SON WAS IN IRAQ IT WAS THE LONGEST 18 MONTHS IN OUR LIFES ....BE SAVE AGAIN THANK YOU.....JOHN

I'll be there in a bit myself. Leave for the Army in 2 months! Airborne Combat Engineer. Can't wait to mess up some insurgents and Taliban S.O.B.'s!

I wish you god speed in your return to the states. Thanks for your service.

Thanks everyone, I am now a Vetren and proud of my 14 years of service to the worlds finest Navy. Troutinator(Scott), while on termainal leave from the Navy, this was the only job that accepted. I took the job as a GSE Mechanic, supporting the Army. I'll be home on some much needed R/R and plan to fish with my boys a few times before having to come back.

I plan to start taking requests on the wedding rings in November. Going to try and sell some to make back the funds used to get the stuff sent out. Trying out different color combos than what Mac offers. So, hopefully I will see if they do work.

Thanks for your service! Oh, and its more like, "Go Army, beat Navy!" You have it backwards! Ha ha but just kidding its all in good fun! We're all on the same side! 

Jeremy, where are you calling home now? BTW, you could be spending your spare time tying flies for fly fishing. I'm just saying. I'll be heading to Key West on detachment next month and between working on those F/A-18E/F Super Hornets, fly fishing for tarpon, cudas and snappers, I'll be finding time to tie lots of flies for this winter. The fly fishing on the Kings River is phenomenal during the winter months. However, I do use wedding rings for trolling as well.

Scott,
Its easier to do the wedding rings out here. Less mess and can work with the less room I have in my room. More beads have been ordered, hooks and line are on their way. Using dakota blades instead. Something different i guess.
