To The Master.


Here you go Master Aegidius, the reward for persevering in the face of impossible odds and pestering until I had to post or never show my face again, I dedicate this post to...(dramatic drumroll)The Master. The flies that you see there are all yours when I see you next, take note how the grass hopper has a shelf wing so its body may hang lower, the nymphs are tied to look very ugly and the Prince has good porportions,your work paid off I listened and learned. (sorry I just had to say that). In August we hope to be in Missoula,if we are, you can come up there and I will take you on one of our rivers ,instead of the Madison or Gallatin it will be Rock Creek or the Clarks Fork maybe even the Bitter Root. It will be warm and the fish will be taking grasshoppers as we float down river then after we finish a twenty minute drive home to eat dinner and we can Fish the evening hatch by Caras Park then in the morning you can go home in just Two and a half hours. Or in winter you can invite us down to your place and we will hunt birds or maybe deer. Now of course this all depends on The Master,will he condescend?It is up to him, and everyone else? They can either stay away or come with us.

Nice post. Now how about the elk hunting around Missoula? What about the trip down the ski mountain? What about coming to see you play football or baseball? Please, let's not make life so one-sided here.

Well done good and faithful servant. Your apprenticeship is almost complete. Soon, you also shall be a Master, but for now, exercise patience in all things.

As I have taught you in the arts of flyfishing (subtlety and patience), so in due time I will instruct you in the arts of muledeer hunting (death and perseverance) and elk hunting (perseverance).

I gladly anticipate the day when you shall guide me down your Rivers, and say "Oh, Teacher, try this fly, and cast over there. Wait, the better approach lies ahead....", and I will respond, "Verily do I say unto thee, call me no longer your Teacher, for today, you have taught me, and I bask in the radiance of your knowledge. Surely, in my old age, I know see the fruit of my labors."

What kind of fishing do you want to do on 4/10?
Flyfishing, spinners, bait, lake, river, shore, wade, canoe?

I think that I can make it work...

Hey Malachi,
You need to answer your e-mail.
Your poor family sends e-mails and they never get answer's.

Love you,
