Shane!!! Let me in!!!! I've got a new articulated fly that I call a Fur-Bou that works for BIG fish, but it turns out that it is just an articulated Bouface(John Barr). I wasn't familiar with John's fly and thought that I was on to something. Grin

Thanks!
Peace, Rob

 
 
My kids's don't call me the Big Easy for nothing Grin

Big enough, hmmmm, yep. Ugly enough, hmmmm, yep.
 
Purple/Black Fur-Bou  
 

 
 
 
After thorough research I found that the Fur-Bou is quite different from Barr's Bouface, especially when articulated and given legs. Smiley I'll post a recipe tomorrow.

Dudes,
 
I blew it. Thought I had til the 20th, about the time that I realized my mistake, the wife hits me with, "Hey honey... We're moving the business"... So, I've spent the last few nights demolishing a space formerly rented by a head shop and decorated to look, literally, like hell... Flaming stained glass and all.  
Tore out the blood red ceramic tile floors tonight. If my hands still work tomorrow, will wrap up the last few bugs, and do my best to get 'em out and delivered by Monday.
 
If anybody is in need of any kind of baby furniture, bedding, etc. PM me. I know where you can get it cheap right now! ; )
 
Thanks/Sorry to be late.
