Hello the forum! I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello to all the members. I've been lurking here for a while and figured it would be fun and educational to join the forum. I have to warn you that I'm not very computer savy so please bear with me. I'm located here in the Northeast and come July and August when the coldwater fishing tails off I grab my 7wt. and hit the lakes and ponds for both SM and LMB. I mostly fish poppers that I tie due to the "lumber" we have subsurface here. If I can figure out how to post pictures here and can figure out my girlfiends camera I might post a few. Just wanted to say hello and if I posted this in the wrong area moderators please move it to the correct area and forgive my ignorance.

Welcome to the TFF. At the ttop of the Photo forum, there is a sticky with instructions for posting pictures. The is also a Testing forum for practicing getting your photos posted. I know it took me several attempts.

Welcome, do not restrict yourself, get a 2 or three wight rod and fish for panfish Blue Gills, the are big fun on a light fly rod.

thanks all.
LC, yup we have some pretty big panfish and crappie up here. Some can even take my #2 bass popper. I still can't figure out how they fit that in their mouth, but they do. Once the water becomes unsolid up here I'll post some picts of them. They may not be big for you guys though.
P, one of my favorite Atlantic Salmon flies. I like to tie them, though I've yet to catch a fish on one. Others, but not a Rusty Rat.
Well I figured out my girlfriends camera, but now they have gone and changed Photobucket on me so I still have to figure out how to post picts. When I do, I'll post a few flies and hopefully fish when things thaw out up here.

rr Sorry for the solid water. Photobucket deal is click on library on the drop down click on view library, then whichever is your photo showing look on the right lower side of the screen you you will see link optptions, click on img option it will then say copied, paste it to your message on tff.
