Elkhorn fishing report

I fished the Elkhorn on Thursday the 9th and the water level and clarity was the best of the season.  We caught a bunch of fish and some of size.  We caught some on a bead head rubber leg brown wooly bugger, but most and the biggest were caught on chartreuse poppers.  Check out all the photos.

Elkhorn Creek fishing report

We fished the Elkhorn on Thursday and the conditions were perfect.  This was the first time I have hit the stream since the awful drought that shut down pretty much everything.  The water level and clarity were both good.  We caught fish on both Dixie Devils and subsurface flies.

       D&H Just received a new shipment of expertly crafted knives from Ohio craftsman, Tom Downing. Mr. Downing creates some extraordinary knives. He uses high quailty, unique, and attractive handle materials such as pre-ban elephant ivory, fossilized ivory, African Ironwood, Black Ash wood, and Sambar Stag, to name just a few. We have a mixture of practical hunting and outdoor knives as well as some more creative examples. Each knife comes with its own high quality leather sheath. Here are a few examples of Mr. Downing's work, they can only be described as awsome!

Aston Martin at the Cincinnati Art Museum

The actual car that appeared in Goldfinger (1964) and Thunderball (1965) is sitting in the Cincinnati Art Museum now.  I visited the beautiful car on Sunday and it was worth the visit.  The one thing I noticed was how big the car is.  In the movie you think of it as a small sports car, but it is a big piece of machinery.
