Three months later...

Testing 5 min. epoxy mixed with a bodkin (steel needle) over an aluminum foil, it also turns yellow. Not too fast, but after one or two months, and a couple of times under the sun, it happens.

30 min. epoxy mixed the same way are almost clear after three months, just a little yellow.

Finishing epoxy for modelcraft (Working time 60 min. aprox.) is completely clear after three months. This is an epoxy made to cover painted surfaces. I use "Great Planes".

I, too, was stood up by a Nervous Water guide. However, I went out on my own with absolutely no knowledge of the area. I had no problem finding bones. Everywhere I went, I saw them. Catching them was another story. These are tough fish and spook like the ones in the Keys. I managed to get several to take, but broke all 3 off thanks to nicked leaders and poor knots. Still, I had a wonderful time and it wouldn't be fun it weren't so challenging.

Hey, Svieki,
I was always told that an angler with a well organised and balanced fly box spends to much time by the bench and not by the water...

However, given the bitter, icy and long winters in Lithuania, I am obliged to give Sarunas a break!!! He has the time to arrange and re-arrange his box of tricks every day while the streams are coated with that cold white stuff.

Is the picture a "before" or "after" the fly fishing season?

My box should be in the league of "Ripley's, Believe it or not!"

I agree with Steve. I have not visited the streams in Denmark this year for one reason or another...But next year, that must change.

Regards - Iki

Summit attendants,

Thanks a bunch for supporting the venue and making this a great event! I thoroughly enjoyed the weekend, and my impression was that this was the case all the way roud. I have already recieved a lot of mails and the comments here also indicate general satisfaction. The weather was perfect as usual - inbetween two periods of heavy rain and hard wind!

I will post a report as soon as I get the time with a ton of pictures. ANd just keep them coming.

Thanks for a great couple of days! It was great to see the exotic country in the south. Now me and Jan has learned that "Fjernbus" is a train, that you have to be 21 to rent a car in Denmark and that the catch part of fishing is definitly not the most important thing.

Extra Kudos to Martin (organising and car-renting), Richard and Brian (great company and drivers), The German guy from Flensburg that drove us up nort sunday morning and to Jesper for driving us to the train in Nyborg sunday afternoon. Thanks to everyone in room 2 for not killing me for snoring.

And as so many else has said: Thanks Rolandos for all the laughs (SPACEGAY will never stop!)

Thank you to all you Summit 2007 Goers, especially to Martin for bearing the burden of work and the heat of the day when he could have been off quietly fishing somewhere.

Thanks to all you characters who made it such fun - we have just got home today, and we're still chuckling about the happenings, the stories and the people we met.

I add a picture of a photographer who no one will recognise. Perhaps he thought he was going to fall backwards into the soup, and that's why he wore his waders to the party...

Nan says I have not laughed so much for years, the whole summit has done me good.

Till next time, then, thanks and tight lines.

Regards,

Hello fellow fishing buddies old and new,

Thank you Martin, Ripley, Branislav (Vanuz) for all your work to make GFF Suumit 07 another great fishing weekend.

It was great to meet all of you again from Gff Summit 06 and meet new guys this year. The company and the fishing stories were great to hear over the weekend. Rolandas and Mindaugas from Lithuania were a great comedy setup (Please come next year guys). I enjoyed all the comedy banter.

I must also say a big thank you to Kai and Paul for the famous "Kai hammerhead fly" it caught me 6 very nice fish on the friday (I will post some pics when i get myself organised) Some may say the fly is "ugly to the eye" but the fish loved it so thats all that counts.

Keep in touch all of you. just email me.

Steve

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
