  • Re: ?????? message from you????



    Jim....
     
    Winds here predicted at full gale force, today.  We'll fly fish anyway......then Dave and I will travel over to Peter's for dinner, hopeful of fishing at Montauk the following 2 days.
     
    I'll let Peter know, then.....though I'll try to forward this to him first.
     
    You will know when you are ready to be tested.  If any doubt, I'd be happy to have you come down after I get back and we'll do a critical MCI pre-test.
     
    Of course, these quiz's are so much more valuable when you avoid reading the answers until you have written down your own.
     
    As you know, Tom White is hosting a very intense 4 day long MCI course in November.  Near the end of each one, I hold a high pressure question and answer period attended by all.  I do this by picking a "volunteer", who understands that I'm going to tear him to bits with progressively difficult questions with pauses so the others can add comments.  We all learn from this session.
     
    During the course, Tom and I cover every casting task imaginable in detail until we're satisfied with good performance across the board.

    Hi Gordy,
      I hope this comes through.  I tried to send a message to Peter Minnick but it came back.  I got a copy of Mack Brown's book through one of the used book and rare book engines.  I started with Barnes and Nobles and it lead me to it.  (I am using a borrowed MSN system while here in Michigan and am behind because of travel here and there etc). I cannot remember the name of the book company.  The Mack Brown book in paper back and essentially new was about $35. It is the second one that I got as I left my original copy at a motel when I fished the Nantahala MemorialDay.  I am actually answering your quizzes but am so late when I get to it I just write down the answers and then compare because everyone has already sent in their answers.  Sorry for all the rain in Long Island.  Still practicing at least 4 times per week and reading and thinking.  I guess I will know when I am ready.
    Jim
