I would like to get pricing infomation for this print/painting. I would need large size, maybe 36" x 48"

I'm a bit further north than Esox by 4 or so hours on the interstate. I would guess that chasing trout is maybe 25 % of my fly fishing. Most of the time from May through September, I'm chasing sunfish and smallmouth and largemouth bass. I will target carp when I see them feeding, so far just a couple of busted tippets there. I chase pike when I go up to Ontario, Canada on my vacation, but we have the pike's cousins, muskies, tiger muskies and chain pickeral in the local lakes and streams. Perch, yellow and white, chubs, fall fish, minnows, golden shiners are fun, American shad, river herring are fair game. Haven't tried catfish yet, but I hope to get a shot at a Snakehead come next spring. Come mid to late September, I switch to salt water, and target bluefish and striped bass through early November. There are a couple of rivers in New Jersey that have sea run brown trout, but they're few and far between. What we call a Sea Trout around here are Weakfish, which are in the croaker family. Trout(Browns and Rainbows) have become a winter, when it's warm enough and an early spring pursuit.

I am looking to purchase the following Poul Jorgensen Videos. They were listed at Anglers Book Store
under the following Catalog Numbers: Vol. 1-- ISBN O-LCI-00000-1 @ $29.95
Vol. 2-- ISBN O-LCI-00000-2 @ $29.95. I can't seem to locate them anywhere. It was a while back when
I got the info. above. Is there anyway you can please help me?

Martin,

Not sure if you wanted all Tee shirt responses here, and unsure if you got my request for a "Large" size in grey. This is the belt-and-bracres response.

thanks,
Les

Ripley,

Guess I don't need to say I would like to be part of the Friday "fish-in". Nothing received yet about the B&B, but there's time. This could be a crowd on Friday!

Regards,
Les

hi to every one...my name is Kyle and im maltese...its an island in the middle of the Meditterranean Sea. Your information about mullets is very good and its all tru..i d like to comment on the season though. Mullets not always appear in summer. They can be caught also in winter, in very rough sea. They also can be fished in calm water, in winter, but it has to be a sunny day so if the water will be warm enough you may encounter a group of mullets. thanks. If you want pictures of several mullets in this summer, and which i cauch just email me on berserk1771@hotmail.com and i'l send you the images . thanks

Hi folks,
We will drive to Odense by car from Hamburg on Friday noon I expect. As it seems we will have one seat available for somebody who needs a lift Hamburg - Odense.

Place a post or send a reply to me by mail to arrange everything further.

Rgds,
Ole

Hi Ripley,

Now the time of the summit is getting nearer and nearer and I want to ask you, what's
going on fishing wise?

I think this is a question all the joiners would have.

Could you recommend the last time and give a statement what we could expect?

I'll also arrive on Friday until noon, but that depends on the traffic.

Perhaps we can meet and fish together?

Could you leave your phone number (kai-nolting@web.de)?

Kind regards

Kai

Hi Ruza,
In Lithuania we also fish for rudds (Scardinius erythrophthalmus), Ides (Leuciscus idus) as you said asps,pikes and chubs.
A few times I have a great succes with rudds :roll: These fish like to eat mosquitos from the top of the water,so you can see how they hunt for your hairy dry or wet fly :)
Most interesting fishing for me was in sunny and warm evening 8)

Hi Esox,

I'm from The Netherlands, looking at your nickname i assume you also fish for pike (Esox Lucius)? :)
I'm now concentrating on the asp and when the autumn is approaching the pike and perch are a good target. Tried fishing for carp a couple of times only without any result. Saw them lying on the bottom only looking at my fly (nimph) but not 1 take, very frustating :lol:

Martin, all clear!Thanks

Seems Ripley will take care on us during first part of friday.

Ripley,
That was a serious answer.

I didnt pull your tang off... what is said is said. I bring as much as possible Svyturys and you show a secret!

Hi.

I'm looking for a lift from Slagelse to Odense friday afternoon, around 1600 hrs.

If nobody can spare me a seat, I'll probably drive myself and will have two spare seats for anybody wanting a lift from somewhere near Slagelse. But lets see if that becomes an issue.

Kind regards.

Hey Jan, had to find this for myself since you didn't send it to me! Wanna bring one of these wee mammas to 4Oaks for me? Can't wait to see if it works in Scotland as good as you say!

Nice one though mate.

Hi Ripley, good to see you are making sure the trout is in good shape, we don't want any sloppy ones this time either.

Sveiki,

You know me - as visada atostogauju :D
Your welcome to join me as long as you bring "alu Svyturys" - and plenty of them, galbut degtine?
We can fish until about 15:00 then head of to the accommodation in Odense to meet the rest of the tribe and brag about all the fish we have caught :wink:

Contact me (ripleydavenport@mail.com), and we can confirm a time and meeting place on the Friday.
Those that know me will know where I'll be taking you and the fish you'll probably catch :wink:

Iki ir gero kelio.
Pasistengsiu nesugaudyti visu zuvu ir paliksiu jums:)

Later dudes
Ripley

Roolis,

There are probably several people who will fish Friday, and I'm sure that you will have company. Regarding a location, Ripley will be the right person to ask. There are other locals on our list, and I will rely on them to answer you.

Fyn is a good place to fish because there is always a place, which can be fished - almost no matter the wind.

I will post my own plans for the Friday when I get more details on the logostics of the weekend, but I also expect to do some fishing before we meet at the hostel.

Martin

Martin,

thanks

Roolis

Martin,

What a shame on me..... sleepless night in Amsterdam is a reason... originaly I was planing to come on thursday . That is why i had some concerns regarding accomodation from thursday to friday.

Now my plans are changed and I am coming on Friday and hostel is already booked , so no need to warry.

Me and Mindaugas are in the list and tomorrow we will transfer 1400DK for both of us ..

Sorry for a mess.

But I still have question about fishing in early friday. Can you suggesta place?

Thanks

Hi Steve will you be at the game fair In Nov at trent and gardens Stoke,

Hello Ruza,

Where are you from? If you go through this forum and look at the titles you will see several threads about fishing for odd species with a fly. Channel Catfish and Carp are my two best non-typical fly rod species so far.

Good luck.

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.
