Where is everyone #5

Not to keep beating a dead horse, but yesterday my wife and I were on our way to eat and ran into a woman and she said I have something to show you. I was hoping for a downblouse shot, but alas that wasn't what she meant. She had pictures of wild hogs that my neighbor to the south had trapped and he shot what looked like two sows and they were really big. Looking at the pictures they had to weigh 400 lbs. He will probably take the rest to Ft Worth and sell them for the overseas market. But anyway, my IQ is at 50 and you got all 50.

 

It is that time of the year. Lots of $$'s for the local economy, so that's a plus.

Hey, do you recognise this name? Lots of folks in your area with it. I snagged this fly rod below a rapid two years ago, just a few miles up the highway from you. Pretty sure it was just below Indian Rapids.

I don't have social media, but a buddy put it on some FB pages trying to find the owner, but no luck.

I've fished it from Virginia to Oregon now, and do like it, but it's a $1500 setup, not mine, and may have sentimental value to someone.

Just thought I'd ask since you're local.

 

Pretty neat that they can utilize live wild hogs in Texas. They are illegal to transport alive in most states.

The groceries out on the river at home are gettin bigger

 

I drew up plans for a setup like that, in my mind I seen a guide / lock setup in the front similar to a rollback or roll off truck to keep the front secured. I was looking at weight not length in this setup for the local company I do smaller jobs for…

 

He is doing coffee mugs and wine glasses as well. This mug is made of Sassafras….

 

Exactly. This is a NRC quickswap idea. They manufacture and sell that front mount. It's very expensive 13 years ago.



Of course build it to you needed size and weight. Just was my idea to spend @Tug Toy money!

 

Current view out the window

 

That is the definition of "Craftmanship"

 

You old coot!

 

Yes a setup like that with a set of locking air operated pins…
