Smith-Pelly, 19, took George Parros' spot on the fourth line and played 9 minutes, 44 seconds. The winger was credited with a game-high seven hits.
"He just has to do his thing on his line for anywhere from 6 to 10 minutes and that would suffice," Boudreau said.
Ellis update
Boudreau is hoping injured goaltender Dan Ellis can start practicing with the team next week. Ellis has been out for the past six weeks because of a tear in his groin muscle that occurred during a practice in the first week of January.
"He's getting better," Boudreau said. "I'm hoping by the time we get to practice at home next week that he's practicing with us. He's been out (six) weeks now. It's been a long time."
Lightning injury
The Lightning was without captain Vincent Lecavalier, who will be out indefinitely because of a non-displaced fracture in his right hand suffered during a game Saturday against Washington.

I haven't broken any, but landing on the end of my mountain bike handlebars with my ribs and the related cartilage damage was bloddy painful and took months to recover from. In some ways, bone fractures you recover from faster. So I appreciate your pain.
I'm not a fan of ER doctors for some things. They stuffed the relocation of my dislocated shoulder, and knocked loose some of the cartilage (location of damage could only have occurred on re-insertion) and told me to not move for two weeks and then go see a physio. I ended up with frozen shoulder and needed surgical intervention. I should have seen the physio immediately.
If you can afford it, I would encourage you strongly to go see a specialist, quickly.
On the other hand, ER registrars are quite good for things like wound infections because they get lots of experience dealing with that in hospitals.
My dearly departed Dad was a butcher who told me the reason a mate's ribs hurt after Dad reduced his dislocated shoulder was that was where he put his foot to apply traction. Took me years to realise he was pulling my leg

Hotel Monaco Seattle reviews
- July 2011

The Hotel Monaco is located in a prime spot within walking to many of the different sights we wanted to see. Only a few blocks from the Pikes Place Market, Argosy cruise lines, the tram to the Space Needle, shopping and many fine restaurants. We absolutely loved the location and will stay there again. We asked for a room on one of the top floors (we were on the 9th) as I had read the previous comments about the noise from the street. Admittedly I am a light sleeper, and I did wake up to noise from the street in the early AM as the city was getting started. Not sure much can be done and the trade off is that the hotel is really a gem. Great pricing, a really beautiful room and we thought the overall experience was very positive. We loved having our morning coffee and the wine hour at 5:00 provided by the hotel. Just a nice afterthought. Would highly recommend this hotel.

The past month or so has been tough on me, but it finally feels like I'm starting to get my head above water again. I've shared a few of the big things that happened (my medication mishap, my grandmother's passing).
The other things that occurred were not as big as these things. In fact, they were relatively small in the big scheme of things but it just seemed like it was one thing on top of another thing and I couldn't catch my breath.
I made a mistake with an article that I wrote, sending in a draft instead of a finished item and the draft got published to my great dismay since it wasn't anything like the finished article was. I had a Google issue where they decided my crochet blog was violating some term of agreement and pulled my ads (and therefore income) and it took me awhile to figure out how to fix it. I had a confrontation of sorts with a friend about my inability to connect well during this time.
Considering how tough the month was, I felt like I handled it pretty well. I went back to the basics. I made sure I was eating well and trying to sleep enough and being as gentle on myself as possible. I reached out and let the people close to me know that I was having a hard time, even though I wasn't sure what I wanted from them in the way of help or support. I tried to remember that it was just a rough patch and would get better, even though I didn't quite believe it at the time.
The worst of it seems to be over. I finally get health insurance starting November 1st, which relieves a lot of the medical issues. I re-designed my crochet blog and am happy with the results (and I'll be looking at a site re-design here in the near future as well). I rested when I needed to rest and am getting more productive now that I've got a little more energy.
Life is ups and downs.

About Greg Herring
I am a 48 year old business man in the metro Atlanta area that grew up visiting the North Georgia mountains and enjoy the beautiful surroundings and the many activities that are just a short drive away.
Greg Herring purchased this cabin in 2011
Why Greg Herring chose Lake Burton
Wow!! What can I say -- this was a home that I looked at in the Summer of 2011. I fell in love with the location as it is located 1/10 of a mile from Lake Burton and on a beautiful creek. It is centrally located to all the places I wanted to spend time at, such as Clayton, Hiawassee, Helen and many beautiful North Georgia towns. I purchased the property and began renovation all the way down to the studs. Over the next year plus, I hired a craftsman and began creating a mountain getaway that I am sure you will agree is second to none. Every detail was attended to and every board, rock and minute detail was designed with precision. I am sure you will agree this home has everything a mountain home should have and more.
What makes this cabin unique
My mountain home is unique and it has the feel of an 3-story mill house located on a creek with three (3) beautiful porches, a 800 square foot rock patio complete with a rock pit. The inside has beautiful pine floors, washed pine walls and ceilings with a twist of metal in the vault in the living room and handcrafted twig rail.

Statistics Refute Portrayal of Retirees as Needy, Ailing
July 7, 2008 - 7:02 PM
(CNSNews.com) - Despite Democratic attempts to depict the dire circumstances of retirees and the necessity of maintaining the status quo with Social Security and Medicare, the majority may not even need the benefits to the extent they once did, according to government research figures.
In fact, Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore's intention to keep the taxpayer-funded retirement account solvent may be the worst scenario for young Americans, one policy analyst said.
"Bush's plan [to privatize portions of Social Security] is a step in the right direction," said Dorman Cordell, a senior scholar with the National Center for Policy Analysis. "If we don't do that, basically what we're doing is pushing this problem back so that it falls on my grandchildren."
The "pay-as-you-go" system of Social Security, whereby today's employees provide for the current retirees, is unfair and detrimental to the future of America's workers, Cordell said. It only benefits those born before World War II, and, he continued, those who argue otherwise are misinformed.
"I don't understand why people are just not willing to believe ... that today's young people, those born after World War II, are not going to get much back," Cordell said. "The system shouldn't work that way. There's no reason why a young person who works today should have to pay an income to fund those already retired."
Some of those retirees, according to government records and statistics, may not even need the full benefits Gore has been promising to save during his presidential campaign stops.
The Federal Interagency Forum on Aging reports that while the "number of older people in the U.S. has increased ten-fold since 1900," to include 13 percent of the population, today's retirees are better educated, and that "positively influences [their] socioeconomic status and health" and makes them less prone to poverty.
"In 1998, 11 percent of older Americans had incomes below the poverty threshold, compared to 35 percent in 1959," according to the Forum on Aging statistics.
Census Bureau statistics also indicated poverty levels among the elderly have decreased consistently throughout the years. In 1970, for instance, 24.6 percent of senior-aged Americans lived in poverty compared to 12.9 percent in 1992.
While median income levels more than doubled for retirees in the years between 1957 and 1992, health problems among the age group decreased, the Census Bureau report continued.
"Poor health is not as prevalent [in the elderly] as many assume, especially among the younger elderly," according to the Census Bureau. "Among non-institutionalized persons in 1992, 75 percent of those age 65 to 74 consider their health to be good, very good, or excellent as do 67 percent of those age 75 and over."
Both federal agencies stressed, however, that the elderly still needed government assistance with Social Security and Medicare issues because some have yet to feel the positive effects of the health and financial gains reported for that population group the past few decades.
"There is a cultural mindset that the government should provide for the elderly," said Michael Shields, spokesman for former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and the president of SSPlus.org, an Internet-based Social Security information site. "But the need is declining, and people are learning to be more self-sufficient.
"I would certainly not want to say seniors don't need it," Shields continued, "but certainly, the program was never designed to be a source of primary income ... and I fully believe Bush's plan is the only one that takes up the issue of solvency."
Conversely, Gore's plan "pushes off the problem until 2035," Shields said.

Howard County may be healthiest in state, but not everything's perfect

Howard County may be the healthiest in the state but a new survey shows even Howard struggles with getting care to the neediest neighborhoods.
The Howard County Health Department on Thursday released the findings of its first health survey. The health department worked with partners Horizon Foundation, Howard County General Hospital and Columbia Association to complete phone surveys with 2,000 county residents about their health care practices and personal health.
The survey found that while overall Howard County residents are above-average when it comes to health, certain neighborhoods and demographic groups struggle more than others to stay healthy. Howard County in March was ranked the healthiest county in Maryland, a title the county has held before, by a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation report.
"It's a tale of two cities," said Dr. Maura Rossman, the county's health officer. "Let's not forget that Howard County is a very health county, but that doesn't mean everyone is healthy."
For example, the survey concluded smoking is a bigger problem in Columbia and Elkridge than it is in the western part of the county. More people in Columbia and Laurel put off going to the dentist even though they wanted to compared with the western part of the county.
Residents with smaller salaries were more likely to go to a hospital emergency room for care rather than seeing a doctor. Overall about 3 percent of residents said they used an emergency room for health care. But the numbers were higher among lower-wage earners. About 9 percent of residents who earned less than $50,000 a year said they turned to an emergency room.

NRF: Retail Imports Gain As Holidays Approach
Monday September 9th, 2013 - 3:47PM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
Global Port Tracker, an ongoing survey sponsored by the National Retail Federation and produced by market research firm Hackett Associates Import, estimates that cargo container volume at major retail container ports will grow 5.1% in September over the same month last year. The estimate suggests that retailers are stocking up more optimistically this year than last as they head into the holiday season.
"Retailers are making up for the slow imports seen earlier in the year," NRF vp/supply chain and customs policy Jonathan Gold said. "It's too early to predict holiday sales, but merchants are clearly stocking up."
U.S. ports that Global Port Tracker follows handled 1.43 million Twenty-Foot Equivalent Units in July, the latest month for which after-the-fact numbers are available, a 5.4% increase over June and up 1.1% from July 2012. The summer gain follows year-over-year declines in three of the four previous months.
The Global Port Tracker estimate came in at 1.48 million TEU, up 4.1% from the month last year. The available data suggests that October will see 1.46 million TEU move, up 9% year over year; November, 1.31 million TEU, up 2.2% and December, 1.3 million TEU, up 0.7%. The Global Port Tracker estimate for January 2014 is 1.33 million TEU, up 1.9% from January of this year.
The total Global Port Tracker forecast for 2012 is for 16.2 million TEU moved, up 2.5% from 2012's 15.8 million TEU.
"The U.S. economy is on the road to sustained growth," Hackett Associates founder Ben Hackett said in comments on the latest Global Port Tracker estimates. "Second-quarter GDP was well above expectations and surprised most forecasters, the unemployment picture is improving, and we believe consumer confidence will translate into increased sales during the fourth quarter."

Big River Tenkara
NEW "WaterShed" Rod Series.
New "WaterShed" Rod Series
When issuing the TRY rods series last year, we focused on the casting properties. Considering that many tenkara anglers are new to tenkara and are coming from a western fly fishing background we created the TRY rods to be easy to cast for them. That is reason the TRY rod is slightly stiffer than what we consider to be characteristic for the classic tenkara rod. It is obvious today that tenkara is not a fad. The number of tenkara anglers in Europe has doubled this year. So now is the time to release a premium tenkara rod just for them, one that is targeted at experienced tenkara anglers - it is The Tenkara Times WaterShed Series. The most important difference is the rod's action. The new Watershed Series blank is softer and the action is slower than the TRY Series. This gives very clear tactile feedback to the caster so it is very intuitive when the rod is loading and unloading. At the same time, the rod retains the high sensitivity of the TRY rods. The blank action is optimized to cast #3 size fluorocarbon level lines with the line length equal to the rod length.
The firstborn WaterShed 400 6:4 model is a 4-meter long rod - which makes it is little longer than the TRY390. This allows it to have good reach and so makes it useful on the larger rivers. Based on angler input we created a new softer blank and also added a larger diameter handle for the Watershed. And of course, the best possible cork is used for the grip. The butt cap is universal and fits all the TTT rods and following the TTT rods user's feedback it is knurled. The finish is also improved and we did not trim the segments with purple more. The Watershed rods are supplied with our popular stretch rod socks and attractive, lightweight carbon fiber rod cases.
Special thanks to Anthony Naples for the advices and ideas helpful for this rod series issue.
New TRY 360 Tenkara Rods are Available
New TRY 360 Tenkara Rods are Available.
We are grateful to our customers who appreciate the TRY360 tenkara rods. Unfortunately production was delayed with the latest batch of TRY360 rods and so for a while they were out of stock. Today however, we are pleased to announce that they are back in stock and they even have some improvements.
Firstly, the purple trim is gone. Secondly, the ends of the cork grip are reinforced by small segments of rubberized cork. And thirdly, the universal butt cap is now knurled for easier use.
However the rod's excellent action, light weight and superb balance remain unchanged.
1stStep 360 tenkara rod - new edition.
1stStep 360 tenkara rod - new edition.
Very popular 1stStep 360 6:4 rods are again available at web store. This rods lot is produced with minor improvements:
- we've added some cork volume to the handle to make it more comfortable for the anglers with large palms;
- the grip ends are covered with rubberized cork to make it more reliable;
- screwed butt cap now is compatible with TRY rods.
Hope you'll like this.
2nd European Tenkara Convention: the report.
This year, June 2014, The European Tenkara Convention was organised by Oleg from The Tenkara Times and held in Czech Republic.
The whole purpose of The European Tenkara Convention is to introduce Tenkara and to bring different companies that are involved within Tenkara together so we can create a good network and cooperation instead of just looking at each other as competitors. Although it is not really looked at as a commercial event, the companies are allowed to sell and promote their products and services at the event. During the first European Tenkara Convention, which was an initiative of Chris Hendriks Fishing – Experiences and his site www.tenkara-norway.com , we met companies and people from England, Czech Republic, France, The Netherlands, Norway, Japan and the USA. We had a very good time and learned a lot from each other and introduced Tenkara to the Norwegian people!
This year, Oleg and his site www.tenkaratimes.com showed us Czech Republic and how he fish with his rods on his waters. It is a beautiful country with a lot of hidden spots to fish at. We were blessed with nice and warm weather and so was the day that the European Tenkara Convention was held on. Oleg opened the European Tenkara Convention and Misako Ishimura started with a presentation about the history of Tenkara. Misako is a great resource when it comes to the historical part of Tenkara and although I have seen here presentation before, each time I learn something new. After the presentation of Misako I offered a presentation that explained a little bit more the practical side of tenkara.
After and between the presentation we held a coffee-break and lunch-break where we could get more acquainted with each other. Besides the normal anglers we met a professional fly tyer, a fly fishing guide and an online fly fishing shop owner. All these different people created together some very interesting conversations! People from the Netherlands, Russia, Czech Republic Japan and Austria were present which gave a very international setting to the event.
Now we walked to the demonstration area where Oleg had several rods rigged with several lines so everyone could try different rods and set ups. During the demonstration almost all the visitors caught some fish and learned very quickly about the casting, that the fly should land first and why it is so important to keep all the line from the water.
We were blessed with a very good stretch of the river that was used as a training stretch during the Fly Fishing world championships. Normally it would be pressured very hard but as I already said, this was a trainingstretch so there was plenty of fish left for the demonstration.
All in all it was a great day with about 15 visitors. The European Tenkara Convention is still at a small stage but all the visitors where getting all the attention they needed and even more. Since the organiser, Oleg, and Misako and I where there we were able to give very detailed lessons to the visitors. And both Oleg and I are convinced that with cooperation of different people and companies the European Tenkara Convention will grow to a bigger event with a lot of different content that will be held each year at a different spot in Europe so a lot of people will be introduced to Tenkara!
So if you missed it this year, we will make sure that the 3rd European Tenkara Convention will be held in 2015!!!!
High Dartmoor Tenkara
High Dartmoor Tenkara.
Dartmoor is an area of wild granite moorland rising to a height of 621 m (2037') and covering an area of 954 square kilometers (368 square miles). It is located in the county of Devon in the far southwest of England. The Dutchy of Cornwall controls the fishing for brown trout, sea trout and salmon, on 25 km of the high moorland streams.
These waters are made for the Tenkara angler as they are well stocked with beautiful little wild brown trout, mainly in the 10 to 35cm length range. Furthermore, many areas of river are boulder strewn with complex currents that would render the use of western rods and line on the water hopeless when it comes to drag control (if I were to use a western rod I'd choose to 'high stick' with a 10 or 11' two weight). In addition, many of the streams are so small that the only effective way to fish them is with a long rod so that the angler can stay well back from the fish whilst holding the line off the bankside vegetation and awkward currents.
During our three-day visit, In mid May 2014, Steve Donohue and I fished on virtually all the Dutchy's waters. The rivers were back to normal levels after heavy flooding a week earlier and the weather was hot and sunny with virtually no wind. Despite only seeing a few Stoneflies, Sedges and Black Gnats we found the fish were generally willing to rise to a dry fly or Sakasa Kebari fished just subsurface. Each day we both landed good numbers of trout (mostly very small but with a sprinkling in the 23 to 28 cm range (9 to 11"). Steve's best fish was 35 cm long and I lost one a little bigger after an epic fight.
I found the TRY 390 7:3, with a 350 cm number 3 level fluorocarbon line and 1 m of 6x tippet, to be ideal for most of the fishing, whilst the TRY 360 6:4, with a line plus tippet no longer than the rod, came into play on some of the more overgrown bits of river.
Both rods are a joy to use: being so light it was possible to fish all day without any fatigue, whilst their ability to put a fly exactly where one wanted was a real plus factor. As for flies, I mainly opted for a size 18 Black Gnat, but the fish were not too choosy. Steve and I also had plenty of takes on Black size 12 Sakasa Kebaris, size 16 Shuttlecocks and size 14 Elk Hair Caddis.
Useful kit includes, waist waders, wading boots with studded soles, a good wading staff, knee pads (preferably with shin guards, not only to keep a low profile by kneeling but also to protect waders from gorse bushes and thistles), plus the usual gear you'd take for a day's walk over wild country.
Tickets to trout fish on the Dutchy of Cornwall's waters cost £10 per day, £30 per week or £70 per year, available from a number of sources which are listed in the following very useful web site that give a lot of information on the other fishing in the area, including the West Country Passport system that opens up many extra waters to the visiting angler, www.westcountryangling.com. In addition an Environment Agency Trout and Coarse Fish License is needed, available from www.gov.uk/buy-a-uk-fishing-rod-licence (£3.75 per day, £10 for 8 days or £27 per year).
Tenkara fishing in Sweden
Tenkara fishing in Sweden.
It is very quiet about Tenkara in Sweden. There was an article in a fishing magazine a couple of years ago, but since then it's been pretty quiet. Not completely silent. Occasionally, Tenkara is mentioned somewhere. So in Sweden, Tenkara is no big deal. The very few vendors of Tenkara rods that actually exists do so in quiet, and compete with foreign Internet shops for the customers. Why, one could ask oneself. Maybe the Swedes are accustomed to fish in other ways, and after other types of fish? But still, almost every fly fisherman I have encountered have actually tried Tenkara, or at least want to know a little more. Not everyone wants to try the rod, but they seem to show at least some polite interest. Another reason could be that fishing in smaller streams isn't particularly widespread. Fly fisherman in Sweden fish for salmon or sea trout in the larger rivers and rainbow trout in put&take waters, especially in the southern parts of Sweden.
Southern Sweden here means everything south of the imaginary line just north of Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. It's because that large areas of the Southern Sweden has been industrialized so that the wild trout hasn't survived in many waters. The same can be said about the grayling, it exists, but only sparsely south of the Dala River (Dalälven). Now, I have far from been fishing throughout Sweden, so part of my saying might be coloured by prejudice. But at least in my area, they sell no fishing licenses for the streams. In the second closest area it is only sold fishing permits for streams that are, or have been, catch&release waters. I know it's a lot better in the northern parts, where one can actually target fishing for wild brown trout and grayling.
Do you want to go fishing in Sweden? Then you're in luck. Sweden is a very beautiful country with a lot of natural scenery. and we have the "Allemansrätten" which means that anyone is allowed to walk in our woods, and put up tents for a shorter stay, as long as you don't ruin things, or interfere with anyone else's stuff. In the 5 great lakes of Sweden, and along the coast line, it is free to fish. And in some cities, it is free to fish in the streams that traverse them. Often they set out rainbow trout or other salmonids there as well. Of course there are also a lot of other types of fish that can be caught in Swedish waters using Tenkara, including both Pike and Perch. And they can be found almost everywhere, in every water.
If you cannot find an area with free fishing, a fishing license must be purchased. You can apply to fish in both local streams and lakes. They are often sold at gas stations, camping sites and tourist bureaus near the water itself. In principle, all water that is of interest for a Tenkara fisherman requires a fishing license. Some waters are also private, which means that the landowner does not grant the water for fishing, or the water is hired by a local fishing club. One must also not go fishing in Nature Reserve areas, but they should be signposted. For some areas, you can buy a fishing license over the Internet, for instance on the site "ifiske" (https://www.ifiske.se/ ). The fishing license is then delivered as a SMS or an email.
If you go by this kind of sign (IMAGE) so it means it is sold fishing licenses nearby. If you are able to, and know in advance where to go, I recommend that you perform a search on the Internet and see if you can find information about what type of fish is in the water you intend to visit. As previously mentioned, many rivers have been dammed why the trout can no longer get through.

Apparently, Technological Overload Also Abhors A Void
Tenkara Where; Tenkara Now
Tenkara Where; Tenkara Now.
Those of you who perhaps might follow the Facebook tenkara posts, know we are at a particularly exciting place in our sport. Western-style for trout and grayling, at least on rivers, has tended towards a new finesse, with ever-lighter fly lines, and ultimately the leader-only approach, while the boundary condition of what we had recently regarded as a limit in tenkara is evaporating. Best of all, I think, the two approaches, once seen as so polar, are converging.
I fish rivers throughout the scale of possibilities; from minute upland trickles down to the lower reaches of broad rivers. So long as there are fish that will come to the fly, ideally trout and grayling, I find a contentment, borne of both an empathy with these beautiful places we visit and a sense of exploration and adventure. Whereas in the past I limited my tenkara exploits to those upper reaches where the quarry was mostly, if not entirely, small wild trout, where a big fish is 30cm, I find myself looking at ever larger sections of river, and much bigger fish, and still not dismissing the possibilities of the fixed line.
This last winter, right up to the end of the British grayling season on 15th March, I fished exclusively tenkara, mostly on the middle Eden in Cumbria. I fine tuned the set up, from the starting point of the outstanding Motive 390 (6:4), until I had what I consider to be the optimum leader construction for a double nymph rig. This consisted of a rod length section of #3.5 fluorocarbon, with a short section of either Sunline #2.5 or fluorescent copolymer 2.0mm as an indicator, with a tippet of a little over a metre of 5X or 6X Fulling Mill copolymer, the latter of which is probably the best material I have ever used for river tippets. For winter grayling I place the two nymphs very close together – about 30cm separation – and latterly these usually consist of either Euro-jig variants and/or PTNs.
The entire set-up has been a revelation, allowing me a level of control (including in terms of presentation) that the shorter western rods have lacked. Without a doubt, also, the grayling, in any size of river, is the ideal target species for the fixed leader approach. Even big grayling do not run anything like as fast as trout and are much easier to bring under control and ease to hand (or net if you are so inclined).
The long rod allows the ideal range of presentation from the wading angler such that correctly ballasted nymphs will quickly reach the river bed or close to it, where both of them need to be, and the angler can have almost straight line contact with them throughout the drift, even manipulating their motion a little from the dead-drift situation, while the indicator section is cutting almost vertically through the water's surface. Jigs are particularly useful for this method, because they fish point upwards and any fouling of the stones on the river bed is usually the bead becoming lodged, rather than the hook point, and these nearly always come away cleanly.
During the last mild winter, several specimen grayling have come to this rig, and no end of OOS trout, and I found myself in wonder at the level of control, once the fundamental of the leader and tippet had been optimised. Grayling of 44cm, 45cm and 47cm - between two and three pounds in weight - came off the Appleby waters of the Eden, all from fairly fast flow. While not running fast, big grayling like this are strong, dogged fighters and they present a large surface area to the current. That puts a lot of strain on hook-hold, tippet and rod. If they get downstream of the angler it is inevitable that one has to go with them, or if western-style fishing, then line must be yielded. With all three of these fish I found the flex in the rod absorbed the downstream lunges of the fish while I needed to take no more than a step or two to cushion any further shock. Had I been fishing western, I would more likely have yielded too much line, rather than taking numerous steps, which is always hazardous in the winter river, and the grayling would have been too far from me; a situation which frequently ends in the hook pulling free. The latter, in any case, is inelegant; quite unlike the beautiful, arched tenkara rod gently absorbing the grayling's weight against the flow. In each case the fish came sedately to hand after a couple of downstream excursions.
Now, after what has seemed a long wait through the foul winter just passed, we are into a new trout season and for the first year ever, I am oddly not thinking of any material change, from tenkara back to tried and tested western. The fish are changing, of course, already focused for long periods of each day on the surface, for midges and dark olives, but I do not feel the need to be able to present at particularly greater range than tenkara will allow on the big river.
I did have one fascinating experience a few days ago, however, which I want to convey. I was wading up a section of the middle Eden, fishing a kebari on a dropper with a small PTN on point, on the Motive 390; picking pockets in search mode. There was no hatch and consequently no fish showing, until about 30m upstream, at the tail of an island channel, I noticed a fish dimple the surface. As I approached I nipped off the flies and increased the tippet length for a dry fly (it takes only one fish showing to make me change to dry).
On went a 19 heron herl plume tip to what was now a combined line and tippet of about 7m. There was an upstream wind, so no problem with delivery on the target area from my downstream approach. I needed this sort of range, however, because of the shallow, clear water in which the trout was feeding. As I eased quietly into range the fish showed again, though I could not see any fly on the surface.
I rose the fish with perhaps my third cast, on a narrow foam lane, but striking felt nothing at all – a 'fresh air rise'. Several casts later it came again, with the same lack of contact. At least it was not spooked, but it is odd to have a fish miss the plume tip. I changed the fly for the yellow quill version, and smaller; a 21. Twice more the fish rose and again with fresh air rises! I was surprised, because it is extremely rare for a 21 plume tip to suffer what was effectively rejection. The signals were there however, in the form of a lack of an upwing hatch. I studied the drifting line of foam more closely and was probably quite fortunate to notice that one of the bubbles was actually not a bubble but a pair of mating midges. Then, I could pick out a few more of this minute species. I changed the plume tip for a much smaller version and within two casts rose the fish yet again, this time setting the hook.
It was a magnificent, leaping wild trout, for which the Eden is so famed, and even better it was followed by other similar fish farther up the drift line, all coming to the midge version of the plume tip on the long leader.
It was a wonderfully salutary experience; from failure and rejection, though analysis and a tactical adjustment, to final, even dramatic, success. I was, however, reminded quite starkly of one crucial aspect of the entire process, common to fishing the fixed line. Once that hook is set the acrobatics and fast moving nature of a sizeable wild brown trout almost immediately puts the angler at a severe disadvantage in terms of control and this is hugely exacerbated by an over-length leader and tippet. One of the trout I hooked that afternoon dashed into the overhanging branches on the far bank and I was utterly powerless to prevent this. Fortunately, everything held and the fish withdrew back out into the open water and I was able to bring it to hand; though this was more by luck than any aspect of control, and probably more thanks to the excellent tippet I use nowadays (Fulling Mill copolymer in 6X – 0.12mm).
And then there is that awful moment of having to grasp the tippet... I think this is one of the biggest 'issues' in tenkara fishing and we are some way off a solution. And yet we must strive for such, because, really guys, this is not cool. It looks exactly as it is: clumsy and out of control, fraught with hazard. It is frankly inelegant, and this, for the most delightfully delicate and elegant means of fly presentation ever, is plainly wrong. I know that several tenkara anglers are concerned with this, while others might be in denial, but I am utterly convinced that we need to find a solution to this one or western-style - particularly with leader-only – will always be seen as the prime option for trout on the larger river. The experience of a big Eden trout going ballistic, among the tangle in fast flow, left me both thrilled to the point of shaking, but also feeling slightly guilty in the sense that I know how I would have felt if the fish had broken away – one of the great sins in our sport.
A word about the upcoming 2nd European Tenkara Convention in early June: the event will be in southern Bohemia in Czech this year, where the rivers are simply perfect for tenkara. I am very sorry not to be able to attend because of my son having to sit important public exams at that time, and I have explained this to Oleg. I just want to wish all the attendees every success in this beautiful region and hope that the Convention consolidates the entire tenkara movement in Europe, and beyond.
Fishing Marble Trout with Tenkara
Fishing Marble Trout with Tenkara.
I come from a fly fishing background but have been practicing tenkara now for two seasons. My first experience with Tenkara was on the Ucja river with a dry fly. I was amazed at how easy it was to present a fly without drag over long drifts. Since then, many things in the fishing itself have become easier. But my goal to catch a good sized, spooky marble trout on tenkara brought new challenges. In pursuit of this goal, I tested my gear to its limits. I caught and lost many good sized fish with a trial and error in approach. Stalking fish in these crystal clear rivers with a fairly short Tenkara setup offers a challenging combination of fishing and "hunting" that suited my style perfectly. I am not a Tenkara purist who only fishes kebari's. I'm more like a hybrid who gives each situation exactly what it asks for to get results.
My biggest marble trout caught on Tenkara gear. This one was close to the 70cm mark. I presented a white woolly bugger perfectly on the first cast. The fish just sucked it in like trout candy. Adrenaline moment!
My Setup.
My favorite rod is a 13 ft, 7:3 like the TryTenkara 390. This will cover most fishing situations and fish sizes. I tried different lines but I got stuck on the orange fluoro carbon, size #3, a foot shorter than the rod. I rarely use longer lines; I just try to get closer to the fish and I try to avoid hand-lining fish. I fish a 3 to 4 ft. fluoro carbon tippet, generally in 6X or 7X ,but I will use 5X for big dry flies and small streamers.
The Flies.
I use 3 boxes of flies to cover every situation, all season. One box contains small mayflies, klinkhamers, needle flies, ants, beetles, and midges to match the hatch for steadily rising fish. One whole box is dedicated to my favorite big dry fly, a size #12 elk-hair caddis. It is attractive and works perfectly to provoke a strike by looking like a good meal for every marble trout. My thrid box contains a couple of small weighted streamers for getting down to the bottoms of deeper pools.
I only use one kebari-like fly. This fly gets deep fast with a golden tungsten bead and thin black body. It is attractive with an upward partridge hackle and an orange hot spot. This killer is my most fished and most effective subsurface fly. It works all the time on just about any fish.
The Tactics.
Sight fishing is the way to go. The waters are clear, so spotting the fish is the easy part. It can be more difficult when the fish are deep because they have such good camouflage they blend in with the background. Even then, spotting fish is the easy part. The flipside of such clear water is that the fish can see me just as easily. I look for opportunities where I can stalk specific marble trout and deliver one perfect cast, like a sniper, thus provoking unwary strikes. This is my favorite fishing style but is incredibly difficult. Getting close to a marble trout without spooking it is a serious challenge. In between dry fly opportunities, I fish the kebari to visible fish and likely looking spots and pools. I make around 10 casts with dead drift before I walk on to the next spot.
Most fish in the pools hold where the main current slows down and the gravel comes up.
What Guarantees Me More Succes:
I walk a lot in search for opportunities. I stay out of the water on higher ground to scan larger parts of the river looking for fish. Good sized marble tout claim the best spots in any secition of river so I pay extra attention and take more time to observe these interesting spots before I get too close.
This is a typical marble trout spot. They prefer dark places with overhang. I would approach this spot from the opposite bank with a low posture, using the rocks as cover.
I always walk upstream. Most fish face upstream, so approaching them straight from behind is the way to keep out of sight and increase your chances from just seeing a fish to actually catching a fish.
Marble tout can be found in unusual spots in the river. Keep an eye out for contrasting forms and colors close to the river banks, walls, and obstacles.
When I spot a good fish, I take the time to make a plan by observing its behaviour for a while. I find a way to get close enough. Sometimes I need to walk back downstream, cross the river, and try the appoach from another angle. As long as I stay directly behind the fish, I am safe from discovery. I choose the best fly for the job and check that the knots are secure. I also try to plan the drill and the choose the best landing place before I even start the approach. I don't hurry; my mindset shifts from "fishing" into "hunting".
During the approach, I concentrate and keep in mind that when the fish sees me my chance is lost, so I need to approach with stealth and stay invisible. I Keep a low posture and, if possible, try to use the natural surroundings to cover me so that the fish don't see me coming. I use things like bushes, rocks, and flowing water to block the fishes' view, thus allowing me to get close enough to make the cast.
If there are no streamside features to hide me, I use the broken water surface of the currents to stay as unseen.
The first chance is the most productive chance so the first cast must be perfect. Marble trout don't give away second chances very often. When the fish is close to the surface or in shallow water, I use the big caddis. It does the job everytime so long as I remain unseen. I want to cast the fly close to the fish's head so it can take with minimal effort. When the fish are holding deep, I dead-drift the attractor kebari in the strike zone. I focus and fish a very tight line to feel even the lightest takes.
When I got a hookup I prepare for a sprint. The fish will likely take off in the first moments after the hookset. I'm not only lifting my rod backwards but also switching to the left and the right to desorient the run direction by pulling the head of the fish in stream. This method will push the fish towards me keeping it close. Because fishing with barbless hooks is mandatory, keeping constant tension and pressure is very important to not lose the fish. Running after the fish is not uncommon so I keep going with this drilling style to tire the fish, eventually leading it to quiet water, and finally scooping it with the net.
Slovenia has a fairly easy licence system. No state licences are needed and they are easy to get at shops, hotels, apartments, and campsites. They can be purchased for only one day but you get discounts for 3 or 5 consecutive days. For a full list of licence providers, take a look at the fishing club website: http://www.flyfishing.si/povezave.php. Or visit the Soca fly fishing shop in the center of Kobarid.
The link above also shows a list of places to spend the night. Prices vary from 15 to 100 euro's per night and can include breakfast, lunch, and dinner. To keep things practical, I suggest choosing a place within the Kobarid, Tolmin, Most na Soci, or Idrija pri Baci range to stay central and have all the rivers close by. For precise inside information or good advice please don't hesitate to send me an email or visit the fishing shop in Kobarid.

Ask A Campus Repair Mechanic
Having a car problem and you don't know where to begin? Is it serious enough to bring it in to a shop, or could you just do the work yourself? There are so many questions about cars, and if Campus Repair can save you a trip in to the shop ... we're happy to help!
Click on the 'Ask Your Question' button below and ask your question. We'll respond online to your question just as soon as we can.
I have a 2008 Suzuki Forenza. I recently had a clip ( or something...) fixed with the transmission. A few days later when pulling out of a parking lot the car began to have a loud banging and squeaking when it moves but not when I am breaking. I have been told by a relative that it could be the rotors? I am wondering if that sounds right and if so how much does that cost to fix?
The squeaking you are hearing may be related to the rotors but the banging noise accompanied by it could be something else entirely. I recommend that you bring your vehicle in to the shop as soon as you can. Loud noises from a car can mean big trouble! We would be happy to look at your car at your earliest convenience.
Our Mechanic
The fuel door release of my 2003 Honda Civic does not work. The trunk release works fine. How much will it cost for the repair?
Since there are a few moving parts that work to open the fuel door, we would have to have a technician look at it to discern the malfunction. The cost for that would be $46.00. Please feel free to bring your vehicle in when you get a chance.

94 chevy silverado 4.3 l eng. 4wd going up several small hills started chugging like running out of gas.started pumping gas pedal still chugging then flat road still like sound of running out of gas then cut out had to pull over not running!!!!TOW TRUCK TIME what do you think is wrong.OH I HAD ALMOST A FULL TANK OF GAS.
hazel m. harris
From the sounds of it there could be a few different problems. You could have a bad fuel pump which is pretty common for most GM trucks. It could also be a sensor causing the engine to run poorly. Our technicians would need to diagnose the problem in order to tell you exactly what is wrong. The diagnostics would be a maximum of $92 and if you need it, we offer towing for $65 in town and $3/ mile out of town plus the pickup fee. Let us know what we can do to help!
Thanks for thinking of us!

Sometimes when I step on the brakes it feels like they are grinding and they don't work as well like the car is not going to stop. Do my brakes need to be checked?
From your description it sounds like your ABS or Anti-Lock Brakes might be engaging. The grinding noise/feel is the brakes being engaged and disengaged very quickly to avoid lock-up. Depending on when this is happening it may be a normal reaction to wheel slip or it may be happening because of a faulty part. More often than not a faulty wheel bearing or wheel speed sensor can cause unwanted ABS engagement. It also can be caused by worn tires that allow wheel slip but rarely is it due to the brakes. We would be happy to investigate your problem for $46. Please call the shop to set up a time to bring in your vehicle (970)484-4040. Thanks for thinking of us!

I have a Oldsmobile aurora and when I'm sitting still it feels like it's not getting enough gas, was told it was the gas cap and air was getting into the tank but I close it tight and it still does it. What could be the problem and how much would it cost to fix?
Your vehicle's problem could be any number of things. It could be an ignition related problem that is causing a misfire at idle, it could be a fuel problem where the injector isn't working properly or it could be caused by an input to the engine's computer which is making it run poorly. I am not sure a leaking gas cap could cause your problem as you describe it. If there is a check engine light on that would help point us in the right direction. Please call us at the shop so we can diagnose your issue for you, the cost for that would be $92.00. The phone number is (970)484-4040. Thanks for thinking of us!
Our Mechanic
My tires are wearing on the outside edge, why is this happening?
There are a few reasons your tires would wear like that. One could be a lack of rotation, when you turn your tires flex and put pressure on the outside of the tread. This happens most on the front since that is where a majority of the vehicle weight is located, so that is why it is important to rotate your tires every other oil change. Another cause could be an alignment issue such as excessive toe or camber. Either one of those angles being out of adjustment can cause tire wear rather quickly. There is also the possibility that you have one or more steering or suspension parts that is loose which causes movement while the tires are rolling down the road which equates to irregular tire wear. We can check all of these things out for you for $49.00. Please feel free to call the shop at (970)484-4040. Thanks for thinking of us!

I have a 1989 Chevy cavalier 4 cyl. It will not start, I had to have it towed home. I was told it is either the timing belt or the starter. The tow truck driver said have the timing belt checked first. I guess my qusetion is, if the timing belt is not working will that make the car not start? What do you charge to check to see if it is the timing belt or if it's the starter? Would you be able to give me an estimate of how much timing belt replacement will be?
Karousel Reed
The 1989 Chevy Cavaliers mostly came with a timing chain rather than a belt, to confirm this I could check the VIN number for you. That being said it is rare but not unheard of for a timing chain to break, it usually happens to vehicles that are very high mileage (think 200k plus). If the timing chain did break or jump time the engine would not start, this is true. We can diagnose your no start issue for you for $46 and give you a definitive answer as to why the engine will not start. Please give us a call at the shop to set up a time for you to bring in your vehicle, the number is (970)484-4040. Thanks for thinking of us!

My sunroof if not working on my 2002 oldsmobile aurora we thought it might be the motor but we ended up getting it ahit all but 3 inches. What could be stopping it from shutting the whole way?
Joaquin Jiron
There may be something in the sunroof track that in binding the motor and causing it to stop moving, there may also be an electrical cause for the motor to stop running like a relay that isn't working or a short in the motor. If you would like us to take a look at it we would charge $46 to diagnose the problem. Give us a call at the shop to set up a time to bring your car in. Thanks for thinking of us!

I have a 2005 Hyundai Sonata. Lately it's been acting strange. It rumbles forward when stopped, then when I accelerate it almost stalls and feels like it's going to die. It doesn't do this everytime I drive, but gets worse as I drive for longer periods of time. There is no 'check engine' light. Would you still be able to diagnose the problem and how much would it cost?
We would be happy to look into your vehicle's problem for you. Since it does not act up all of the time we will need atleast a day or two to drive it and get it to act up so we can get to the bottom of the issue. For this we would charge $92.00. Feel free to bring the vehicle by the shop whenever you can spare it for a day or two, we can also arrange for you to drive our loaner vehicle while we are working on yours, we just need a couple of days notice. We look forward to working with you and thanks for thinking of us!
Our Mechanic
i have a HAUNDAI SANTA FE BATTARY full charge starter good engin will not turnover
There are a few things besides the battery or starter that can cause the vehicle not to start. There are relays and inputs to the engine computer that all have to be working correctly before the computer will allow the engine to start. We would be happy to diagnose your issue here at the shop for $46. If you need a tow to get the vehicle here we offer towing within Fort Collins city limits for $65. Please feel free to call the shop to set up a time to bring your vehicle in (970)484-4040. Thanks for thinking of us!

Had a enjoyable evening here, with dinner before in the bar area. The show is in the lovely dining room of Chief O'Neill's, with rows of chairs replacing the tables. A 4 piece band, dancer, and singers tell the story of Chief O'Neill and his work to notate the Irish songs he loved. This I knew about, but who knew he protected Emma Goldmann and was the first to promote a black policeman? If you want to see the feet of the step dancer, get there early and sit in the first two rows. Otherwise, any seat is good. A fine entertainment for the price of a movie.

Suffolk police have uncovered a marijuana-growing operation at a home day care.
Suffolk spokeswoman Debbie George says officers responding to a domestic dispute at the home Saturday encountered a man who was carrying two canisters of marijuana. George says the man acknowledged that he'd grown it.
George says the officers searched the home and found a hydroponic growing operation. She says charges are expected against at least one person.
The residents' two children, a 3-year-old and a 9-month-old, were home at the time, but no children from the day care were there.

China, Hell, and American Delusion: 'Praying for Abortion' is the Screeching of Demons Comments
Pardon me if I don't have much faith in the American voters to stand up and prevent the full-blown emergence of a forced-abortion/one child policy like China's here in America. If it's cloaked in the desired political rhetoric and framed as a safeguard of "women's rights", then I think many people will swallow it gladly. We're already willing to kill our own children if they get in our way. From there to China is not such a giant leap. Continue Reading

Jennifer, thank you for another spot on, truth telling article. The video of the Communist Democrat Party women blaspheming God by praying for more deaths of babies and the photo of the anti-Christ Democrats on the cover of your article is the true face of the Communist Democrat Party.

Dear Jennifer,
Your article is excellent and your skills as a writer are outstanding. Thank you for portraying with such precision and clarity the evil of abortion and the hypocrisy that lies behind it -- it is the ultimate crime against humanity.
I'd also like to say that, in reading the obscene "prayer" that pro-abortionist uttered at the Iowa state capitol, I immediately got a sense that a Satanic entity was being invoked by this incantation -- it was truly chilling to read and a harbinger, perhaps, of more egregious "sacrifices" that so-called enlightened people will be offering in the near future, right here in North America.
If Americans, Canadians (like myself), and others haven't yet realized that abortion truly is a spiritual battleground, then the demonic "prayer" cited above should make it obvious.
Your brother in Christ,
1 year ago
Yes we can as Americans "Punish" and bomb,other countries for using nerve gas on their own citizens and at the same time pray that we have dedicated doctors,that have the "unique ability"to carry out abortion on demand",as a so called wonderful procedure???? "THE/a human right for all women",especially economically poor physically abused,or otherwise poor women of circumstance! My thought is that I see no difference between a country using nerve gas on it's very own citizens and/or aborting their very own pre born citizens with" impunity",because murder=murder,killing=killing! One does not have to be "religious" to realize that fact! Fact is "Americans" have also lost all sense of morality so they are not the "Moral conscience" of the world.

"It's the screeching of demons." You are so right, Jennifer. I hear it, too; there is no mistaking it. Thank you so much for putting it so very well.

What ever happened to the video documentary/image "The Silent Cry" (I believe that's the name). Can we get this video updated with more graphics (and God forbid there's another abortion, can we have other documentary videos uncovering the truth on abortion)?
I saw the video in my Catholic college as a young 16 year old and I never forgot it. That cry helped me to face the lie of abortion. I know some persons have seen the video and are still pro-abortion, but that video (and others can be made too) can help many persons see the grim truth about abortion.
Any Catholic producers/writers?

Thanks for being a voice for the voiceless. It expresses my disgust for the American electorate. I find it more and more difficult to say the pledge of allegiance. What kind of republic are we? What do we stand for? Under what god? Is this a country under the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob? Is there any way that a person could arrive at such a conclusion by observing what is happening in this nation from the highest levels of the government to individual family units?
