Re: Introductions
Brett, thank you very much. My fiancee tells me I have "inhuman patience" and it is probably the key. Not having inhuman patience, but to have a little more patience than for your usual flies. The semi-realistic fishing flies I like to play around with take a little longer to tie than a "normal" fly but are not in my opinion harder to tie than any other.
Jim, nice seeing you here, and thanks for the welcome!!! I browsed trough the topics and saw a few other names I recognized aswell, looka like a good mix of people here.
Cheers
Ulf

Re: Introductions
Awesome... this place is alive! My name is Ryan and I was a member of the first Smallstreams. I am from Michigan. Glad this place is alive and well. Seriously, this made my day!

Re: Introductions
After some time away, it's great to come back to this place and find it thriving again - with quite a few familiar faces.
To all those whom I haven't yet met, either in reality (whatever that is) or cyberspace... just click on my signature links for all the background you could possibly want (and which I won't bore you with now!)
Greetings to all from across the Pond...

Re: Introductions
I'm back, :wave:
Lost you all for a few months and recognise quite a few names on here second time around.
Living in West Wales I have the Towy, Teifi and all the other great salmon and sewin (sea trout) rivers on my doorstep. However I much prefer venturing just that little bit further to fish for my favourite "Wild Welsh Brownies". Some think I'm mad neglecting whats a mile from my door, but thats just the way I like it :)
All the best and a Happy New Year.
Bill :)

Re: Introductions
Hi,
My name's Lawrence. I live in England and regularly fish a couple of small rivers local to me. I'm new to fly fishing but have been fishing for 20 years.
I'm equally happy chucking a fly, spinner, plug or bait after any species of fish.

Re: Introductions
Trucha here,
Nice to see the place back up again. Maybe heading up to the San Juan in a couple of weeks with a budding of mine. It's been a long time since I have been on the water. Saludos desde Albuquerque.

Re: Introductions
Our man S.Brooks is back, we are complete!
Chef, Gerard, Me, now Brooks. Ivan is MIA, Gus took over for Ted.
So we are now back as much as we can be.
We have a bamboo contest going and have grown totally by word of mouth. We are working to retain the feel of the old site and so far we are on it.
S.Brooks, welcome back brother.

Re: Introductions
Hi,
Lurked on the old site and glad to see it's back up.
I'm from Derbyshire/Cheshire UK and love those small streams.
Will try to post some words and pictures when I get a minute.

Re: Introductions
hey, thx very much for the greeting adam. good to be back as well bro. i have really missed this site. always great pics, good stories, good advice, and a wealth of info too, not to mention quality people like mikeytwo shoes, chef, gerard, rbailydav and the jeepster.
my name is Brooks Bedwell, or S. Brooks Bedwell. i currently live in NM and for the past few seasons have fished almost exclusively up on the conejos drainage in south-cental CO. i learned to fly-fish from a friend in awesome MT.
i like small to mid-sized wild, native trout streams but have a soft spot for high mountain lakes. i was a member of the old smallstreams.com and am looking forward to hopefully meeting and fishing with some of you at chef's christmas tree lake trip that is planned for this june. :cool:
