Entomology 101 at Orvis

[grouser]

I was able to go to the Orvis presentation today and just wanted to say thanks to Jason for a great presentation. Big crowd, lots of great pictures and charts, sound information, questions answered, an all around solid effort.
Jason, you should consider becoming a teacher, but please don't start in on my grammar or spelling.

Jason,
You did a great job today in front of a crowd of 60+. Great turnout and very useful information. I didn't know you could handle pressure with the big crowd but you did great and didn't skip a beat!

Thanks!

101? I'da give it a 150 at least. Very well presented, if you missed it you missed out. Thanks Orvis for having it too. I will be a better flysmyth for having attended.

I thought well done. Jason had a diverse group of youthful and saged anglers. And a diverse group of experienced and novice anglers.
Jason skillfully answered all questions of the curious and gave knowledge to all.

So when is entomology 303 (trip out in the field) going to be?

Thanks, Jason and all those at Orvis.

Thanks for the compliments. I enjoyed it, even though there were a few hecklers in the back. [cough]cardiac[cough] I was a little nervous with close to 75 people there, but I think I got through it ok. Just try doing that same presentation in front of 35 woman at the 'Becoming an Outdoors Woman' program.

Many of you have asked for a copy of my presentation. Unfortunately, I don't plan on giving public access to it, but I would be willing to email you the summary of my presentation on MS Word. Most of the photos I used are in the entomology or fly tying section of our site. You can access those pages from the Home page.

When you do that presentation in front of the women will you be naked? Chech wanted me to ask but was too embarassed to ask himself.

I actually did the presentation about a year ago up in Brigham City. And no, I wasn't naked. I'm sure some of the woman wish I was with all the buggy photos I was showing them.

BTW, the male mayflies have big eyes and the females have small ones.

Flysmyth- What gives? If you are going to try to rip on me, spell my name right...

[FlySmyth]

Cheech, there you go having dilusions of grandure again. I wasn't talking about you I was talking about "chech" our new friend that is from eastern europe and doesn't post here a lot.

FlySmyth.

PS Okay I lied I was talking about you and I promise that if in the future I insult you in any way I will spell your name rite.

[cardiac]

Jason, wasn't me heckling you. Actually wasn't even heckling anybody. I thought it was a very well done presentation. A few strange questions were asked but answered quite well. You did a hellava good job.
