Any chance you're joining us for Cinco de Julio?

  1. Of course. In fact, I save my popsicle sticks for just this occasion!

    Which things?

    I’m not hovering over your stuff or anything.

    Don’t ever speak aloud that funds can travel from hobby to hobby. If my wife ever catches wind, it’s all over.

    Come on, that is at least a triple unicorn on creativity alone.

    Shaved at the RV this weekend with this lake set up. The TSE soap is pretty good, and had two pleasant passes.
    Much like Jared, we spent a chunk of time chasing fish. My son tried trolling from his Kayak yesterday morning for the first time. Across where a large creek comes in. At least he got away from the mosquitoes. They’ve been bad at our spot.

    My wife and daughter were at the beach. I hate it when it is this busy:). A few clouds kept the crowds away I guess.

    Beautiful, Jason. Did he catch anything? It’s nice to be where no one else is.

    It’s Charlie. Not sure I want to encourage him.

    The Rocnel, Delta Echo New SC, and the Option Five for the razors. At least to start. I need to decide. On the brushes, I really need to thin the heard. Off the top of my head the BSB with 2 band Vie Long Fan is a likely candidate along with the Shavemac D01 3 band. I need to evaluate some others as well.

    I hear you on the hobbies. So we will keep that quiet.

    No luck yesterday. We often fish where this one creek comes into the lake, with good success. Too wet lately, so the creek is higher than usual, which doesn’t help. We need to get the wife’s family boat out if we want to troll the deep water for big Gerrards. Kootenay Lake is quite a large lake (about 60 miles long) but is quite narrow across, between mountain ranges. The pics I show are from the bay where we lease a spot yearly. Houses and resorts are on the sheltered bays or inlets as the main shore is very open and rocky.

    It certainly is beautiful. I didn’t know what a Gerrard was, so I looked it up. Certainly a pretty trout. Question: When they are that big, do you treat them like salmon? Is it similar meat?

    The scales on that razor are awesome.

    Have you ever found any of them to have more blade feel than the adjustable?

    To me, the Ranger Tech has the most blade feel, but it isn't much more. I would have to get out my FB to see how it really compares.
