Site Editor Wellsville, NYPosts: 540 | The fish was taken on a Black Gnat, actually. Looking like this. It might have been taken as a little black caddis which was about at the time:![]() The rod is perfect for wets. Mark | |

Site Editor Wellsville, NYPosts: 540 | Thanks, Everyone. I began a new chemo regimen on June 12. It's kicking my fanny. Side effects are terrible, but trying to counteract them with various medications. Have been doing a lot of sleeping. Mark | |

| Colorado Posts: 1169 | Hang in there, Mark. A friend of mine recently finished chemo, and it had kicked her butt too. But she's done now and feeling pretty darn good. | |
