Without trial we cannot learn and grow . It is through our stuggles that we become stronger .
Brother I'm going to be Pythagerus , DiVinci , and Atlas all rolled into one soon .
JW: I've been avoiding trashing on the Asperly Aimless ,with the thought that perhaps a "newbie" at NCBS might offer you some greenspans that could go toward lease/purchase of one or more of my treasures... I mention lease specifically in the event you might want to practice with one of my 9.3x62s in order to be ready for the Safari Rifle Challenge in Libby later this summer...I've inquiry out now as to date(s) and any rule changes...Don't go overboard in pricing that Asperly,as my sources tell me that the last one known sold only brought $666..I'll grant that it was definitely a "shooter grade",at best a 70% example...Those in town(Winnemucca)by Thursday evening,contact us at the Winnemucca Inn...The single barrel JD is GONE, but I'll share a dram of Drambuie with the first six in line..Onceabull

My reservations are already in for Thursday night at the Shady Court so I might take you up on that. I will try to avoid finding another "hot" video poker machine this time.
Great timing there Don!! As a matter of fact I have an appointment coming up soon where I chug down some stuff to get cleaned out and then they "borescope" me. Not really looking forward to it, but I guess it's gotta be done. I guess I coulda asked the doc if Ed's Red would work for that--something tells me it would!! JW
Onceabull, we will for sure hunt you down Thurs. afternoon/evening. Lagene and I are figuring on a short squirrel safari in the Weiser area on our way down, works out well for us. That way we will have a short drive on Thurs. I will hook the Asperly on the bumper by a chain as we depart Weiser so it has a nice "shine" to it when we arrive in Winnemucca. I think you will be pleased with it's condition, and I am sure, be willing to offer an appropriate price for said gem. Looking forward to seeing everyone. JW
JW-
If'n you need a place to stay on Wed nite, let me know.

I am about ready to chainsaw a small alder tree. Would the fresh chips be of any use on the grill? I can put a few handfuls in a bag and bring them down.
Quilbilly: any of those alder chips not used onsite can come home with me & will be put to use in Henrys Lake St.Park sometime the following wk. If you can spare the time after Ely drop by there,look for the 14x24 Wall Tent with a facing 10x14 Cook tent,we will have a full size Frig/freezer hooked up ,but you might want to bring your own fish,as we normally don't keep any till the last couple days of the trip,unless some are too injured to survive,,Rare because this group is fly fisherman only..OK, shave that last a tad,you can keep your first 10 LB,or larger trout,long enough to find the Taxidermist in W.,Yellowstone.. Group record is 11.75 LB but that was 5-6 years ago,personal best is 7.5 LB ..Ironic ,that one,because we had just got to Henrys,after spending 2 days fishing in Monster Lake,Wyo,@ $295/day ,and the best fish caught there(by us) was 5.5 Lb..

Looks like I am not going to be able to make it this year.

With regards to gun control in this country, everyone should be asking themselves one question:
What is it that this government feels they need to do, but can't do, unless the citizens of this nation are first disarmed?
(I seriously doubt you can come up with any plausible answers that you will like...)

Well dang Matt! We'll miss your picture amongst the group of Rifle team or pistol team stake shooters! I'll be there unless something happens. My 87 YO dad is currently in the hospital in Tucson, but seems to be doing well (appendix operation) with only a couple minor complications.
Father Grand Caster watches over you my brother. Go now and pour yourself a hot one. May the Sacred Silver Stream be with you always

ammohead,
If you have started counting heads or will be soon? Darren and Martha, will not be at this years event, huge homeowner expense cropped up recently. Marlene and I, plus cousin Anita, will be there.
Sure looking forward to the happenings!

Just made reservations at the Model-T..!
Holly probably won't make this year. We have a sick animal that we don't want to saddle our neighbor with.
Quilbilly, I suppose this also means you will have to head home a little sooner then the orig.plan ??????????????? Onceabull
"The Eagle is no flycatcher"
Not a chance. After Winnemucca I still hope to head over toward Ely to do a little trout fishing. There is a 24" brown in a small stream that needs catching. Business is slow for the first couple weeks of June so I have some time for a change. I sure hope the weather starts improving in Nevada. If I wanted to be camping out in the rain, I could stay here.

If I knew where a 24" Brownie was living in a small stream. I doubt I would be doing anything else by trying for it,aside from sleep & eat,prn..Has to be a small stream,because there isn't anything else close to Ely....Once every 2+ years some nails a good brownie from the Boise River here in town or close by...usually caught at night,twilight ,or first shooting light AM, Floating mouse imitator fly highly recommended...with the # of "homeless" living in the jungles along the river, I'd not try it without an armed sentry type "pacifier"nearby...Onceabull
