Wooden country church in the tiny town of Lawton in Pulaski County, Indiana, captured in a crappy cell phone pic on a 33-mile C&V gravel ride this afternoon

On the way to my garage to grab a bike to ride to church and this "pairing" caught my eye!

Grady,
Thanks. Happy to make them up for you. There are few things I enjoy more than tying flies.
BTW, better take that Gargoyle out of the package, as it looks like it bunched up during shipping.

Hope some of these work as well for you down in the D.R. as the one did on that bass!

So many talents Scott has, as these flies are gorgeous.

I was out yesterday. I tied one of these on and caught a 4 lb largemouth on the first cast.

Barely hit the water and bam!!!!!

Not too shabby.

Also, check out the special "Grady's Gargoyle."

I fish locally for muskies with my steelhead outfit and this "Gargoyle" looks like just the ticket for late season muskies.

Thanks again Scott. You're the best.

Flies from Scott G. What an absolute joy to receive a box from this talented tier. I'm off to cast a few of these beauties this evening. Thanks Scott. by gomango1849, on Flickr

Just got home from a cruise up to Glacier Bay with my wife.

It's nearly impossible to take a bad photo up there

Wow, that is spectacular! Definitely worth the investment to print and frame for your living room wall.

You're too modest, NorthBend.

Bon Jon 35's, very plush. I had 38's on my Weigle and can't tell the difference, 38's may be overkill.

I was thinking the same thing. When my 38's are done I may go down to 35's and get a bit more clearance. How do you like the ride of that one?

the price makes the ride feel better, in my experience.

I can definitely feel the difference between 38s and 35 on tandem when I'm on cobbles/gravel. The 38s are MUCH appreciated. Of course I'm using 35s right now

If the 35s you're using are the Vittoria Hyper Randos you might not notice unless moving up within brand; the 35s measured near 38 on my bike anyway.

Thanks, I noticed that after dropping it in the basement to dry things off. Neat the way it settled on the lines of the fork.

^Nice work, Jim.
