Fall is fast approaching
Salutation Minions,
Fall is fast approaching and it is time to consider Pulaski trips. I did not make one trip last year and would very much like to make it this year. Any thoughts?
Curly.

Griptilian Replacement Review
Three Benchmade knives come immediately to mind. As most of us know, the Griptilian, like all of its sisters in the Benchmade harem, is an incredibly useful as well as well made cutting instrument. To replace an aged and decrepit Mini Griptilian I humbly suggest: another Mini Griptilian, the Mini Stryker Nitrous or the newfangled Mini Barrage.
Pluses and minuses:
Griptilian + good blade geometry, lower price point - PLASTIC scales, no Nitrous
Stryker + great blade geometry, moderate price, G10 scales, Nitrous, I am the satified owner of a high performing full size Stryker - 4.25 inches long
Barrage + good blade geometry, moderate price, Nitrous - PLASTIC scales
You're probably guessing by this point that I'm not a fan of pastic handles on higher quality knives.

Another recent video, for your viewing pleasure!
Nice color saturation in this video.
I challenge Curli to name the artist of the funky song played during the first portion of the video.
ENJOY!

Tully Report (Belated)
I seem to recall fishing the upper Tully about two weeks ago. Faint memories of swarms of Tricos filling the air and fish rising within easy casting distance. Memory seems clouded by visions of a very large burrito held close to my face.

Here's a nice soft tank clanker to get your motor running.

Here I display some sort of fish related item, while behind me an anonymous angler looks on.

Hot Alert from a Loyal Minion Follower...
Donny Beaver selling the Stillwater property.
Anyone have a spare $985,000? (I'm sure a good negotiator could get him down to $950,000)
The online add has this to say about the historic property and not so historic lodge buildings.
Pennsylvania land for sale with creek frontage. This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a beautiful Log Home on 40.64 acres for all your outdoor recreational activities. First class fly fishing in a Class ''A'' Trout Stream, Fishing Creek. The creek traverses through the majority of this property bordering both sides of the creek. Fishing Creek is a cold limestone wild trout stream that you'll find brownies, brookies and rainbows. Fishing Creek offers great hatches and consistent fishing throughout the summer into the fall. Good hatches of Hendricksons, Sulphurs, Olives, Blue Quills, Isonychia, and Tricos along with other Mayflies and Caddis throughout many stretches. This property is owned and maintained by the Home Waters Club. Beautiful custom built Log Home built on piers and is out of the flood zone. Large living room, modern kitchen with upscale appliances. Large Master Bedroom with large Master Bath and walk-in closet. It even has an elevator. A very large metal building 74' X 46'6" located at the entrance way to this property. Offers plenty of storage and has a 19'6" X 13' 8" office. Both are fully insulated and heated with power overhead doors. You can live the dream year round or makes for a great vacation getaway.
