Fly Fishing Vest Tool Caddy and Organizer


The Fly Fishing Vest Tool Caddy and Organizer is the Featured Product on the Trout University store. Invented by an engineer and fly fishing enthusiast from Montana who applied his engineering discipline in the design of the vest. It is truly a great cool way to replace the old fashioned vests which are heavy hot canvas!
It has turned out to be the first innovative change in fishing vests in over 50 years! It is easy to put on, cool to wear and has everything needed by the fly fisherman right at his finger tips.

How to Peel a Hard Boiled Egg Without Peeling!

One night as I returned from a Trout Unlimited meeting, I found my lovely wife in tears. She was sitting in a pile of egg shells and with some tears in her eyes. As most men would feel, I was deeply saddened with this experience so I went to the web for an answer, as most men would do.

Here is what I found, "How to Peel a Hard Boiled Egg Without Peeling" by Tim Ferriss.

Tick Season here already


Ticks are small spiderlike animals (arachnids) that bite to fasten themselves onto the skin and feed on blood. Ticks live in the fur and feathers of many birds and animals. Tick bites occur most often during early spring to late summer and in areas where there are many wild animals and birds.
But it is important to remove a tick as soon as you find it. Removing the tick's body helps you avoid diseases the tick may pass on during feeding. Removing the tick's head helps prevent an infection in the skin where it bit.

Many of the diseases ticks carry cause flu-like symptoms, such as fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, and muscle aches. Lyme's Disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever are most common diseases resulting from tick bites.

Symptoms may begin from 1 day to 3 weeks after the tick bite. Sometimes a rash or sore appears along with the flu-like symptoms. Go to the WebMD for more information including the symptoms.
