   Unless they are REALLY young, why not bring the grandkids along?  If you do I'll rig up a couple of extra rods for them.  I'm sure any 6 year old would like to use a Sage 9' 4wt.

I'm hoping I can make a late run in the afternoon to the outing - no promises just gonna play it by ear or should I say diaper....If they head back early, it takes about 1 1/2 hrs to get there from my house and I'll be packed and ready if they leave early.  Hate to miss it, the last 2 years were a good time.   Dave

Status: online 		Gentlemen,
    If I can make it up, and I sure hope so,  I'm going to be trying a funny looking, bright green bodied fly with grey wings that I found in a shop down here in KY.  Looks almost like a green bodied wasp.   My thinking is that it will be a little bit different.  Also, my grandson has tied me up a bunch of "special" patterns.  You know, "special", like in Special Oylmpics!  LOL !  Some of these flies ? ? ?   Bug!; never give a 12 year old with imagination a fly tying kit and tell him to experiment.

Status: online 		indsguiz,

It is just a phase.  He will come around soon and start trying fairly "standard" flies.  I will have a few "special" flies for you to use. 

As for flies I have been working on, I have been having quite a lot of fun learning to tie dry flies.  The elk hair caddis seems to be a good choice from what I have heard, so I have some of them.  I even am tying some polywing caddis.  The other flies are polywing BWO in #18 and #20.  It was quite a challenge getting used to the tiny hooks.  I also have some small #16, #18 and #20 pale yellow and light gray winged dries.  I was going for a pale dun or sulfur... There are a few light cahills.  I like the look of the royal wulf, so I have some of those.  On the  nymph and emergers, I have a number of fairly generic caddis nymphs and emergers.  I have a few soft hackles to try. 

Basically, I am planning on having a wide variety of flies to try.  Of course, since I am totally clueless as to fishing Oil creek if I actually catch anything it will be most likely by mistake.

    I'll bring some chemical heating packs for the hand cramps you're going to have from switching flys so much!
If I change patterns more than three times it'll be too much.  And me the guy with 3,000 flies.  Guess I'll never run out.

BugDrifter- Speaking of three wts....I want to bring my 7'6" glass 3 wt., I can really throw some line with it, but anything more than a slight breeze ruins my cast.  Well i'll bring the 3 wt. along with the 5 wt....somebody can play around with the 3 if I'm not using it...

Won't be getting home from Philly till around midnight on Saturday. Not sure if I'm going to head straight up or catch a few hours sleep first. I can meet you at camp or ? if you like.

Jeremy , would like to check out some new pattern and variations.

Mgolf, Bringing along the 5wt as well. Dave just built me a 3wt RX7. Wanted to use a Dan craft blank but got a great deal on the RX7. Looking forward to meeting you.

Take care and see you guys soon.

Oh well, maybe next year.

Status: online 		Gentlemen,
    If anybody is interested I'll be bringing up some bamboo rods, ranging from: cheap, to "don't even ask if you can cast it" ! All you will have to do is provide reels and line.  Most of the rods will be in the 3-4 wt area, and most of the rods will be unrestored or restored a long time ago and will show it; but I'll be willing to let you all try some of them out.  It would be unique to see a large group of men fishing with rods older than they are and maybe get a picture.  I might have a few reels with me, and maybe some with 75 year old line on them.  Won't that be a thrill?  Chore?  Pain in the A$$?
