Vise Music

There was a time when each fly I tied was special, when every second sat before the vise was magic. Most of the time now I tied out of pure necessity. I still enjoy it, but sometimes it feels like a chore. Music is the major thing that gets me through this chore (with beers a close second). Pandora is my favorite source of music because it gives me an element of surprise, keeping my mind from the mundane thoughts associated with tying a few dozen size 20 BWO parachutes. I lean towards the acoustic instrumentals with that jam feeling…

Jam of the Day: March 27, 2012

Back to work today after an 8 day recovery from surgery. It was boring and I’m ready to do some work. Although as I start feeling stronger there is an appeal to be unemployed. Or at least make just enough money to live near a trout stream and have enough time to fish it. Not sure why this song came to mind on my commute to work, but here it is

Jam of the Day: March 8, 2012

After lunch yesterday I stopped in at Jerry’s Records, one of the last remaining great record stores in Pittsburgh. With a few dollars during a hole in my pocket I walked out with two bluegrass albums. Today’s spotlight is on the Vassar Clements Band.

Jam of the Day:Tuesday March 6, 2012

Back at work after a three-day trip to State College, PA were I logged over 600 miles behind the wheel. Three of my good buddies joined in on this trip and we all had a really great time. I’m editing video and sorting through pictures, so a trip report should follow in the coming days.

moe. is coming into Pittsburgh this Thursday. I’m up in the air about going, as I have seen them a few times lately. Here’s a tune that describes how I’m feeling after an epic trip.

and here’s a teaser photo from the weekend…

How Small A Trout

Maybe your stature as a fly fisherman isn't determined by how big a trout you can catch, but by how small a trout you can catch without being disappointed. -- John Gierach
