Well mines fishing (UK) for coarse or carp not at the sametime I hasten to add. I used to fish for trout as well but my left shoulder is shot so fly casting is out. I still tie the flies tho' for display purposes & sell them as attached, pics No1 & No3.

Over the past few yrs UK has fished for carp using "carp bugs" flies costing about £6.00 (a few dollars) for a card of 4/5 some exampes are in pic No2. If I tied them each one would take maybe 5 mins, cost around 10pence, (a few cents maybe) not a lot a.

So over to you plse. . . . . .

When I lived in Africa, I collected traditional 'dance' masks, now on loan to a museum. Nowadays, my hobbies are more sedate, photography and birding

Woodworking. I've crafted something for each one of the grandchildren. 7 yr. old requested a Lego Table. I decided to incorporate a chess/checkerboard.


That is a lovely piece of work :thumbup:

Electronics for me, but my lifelong wish was to play the guitar.
No good for me though, I have short fingers like sausages :cry:

Bicycling and flying.

I have five sons. Son number five started working at a Culver's restaurant at age 14, and saved up enough money to buy a pretty impressive dirt bike about one week before he got his driver's license. He rode that bike for a week, and I've had it for the ten years since.

Son number three was the most difficult of all of them during his junior high school years. We went to a family counsellor where we found that he felt he was more disconnected from me than his brothers. The counsellor suggested we find an activity to do together that would make him feel connected to me in a way different from his brothers. So we learned to fly together.

Son number five never rides a bike anymore, but I do. Son number three got to solo as a pilot, but stopped there. I still fly.
