Fishing Report

Caught this nice little trout last night, next one is going to get eaten. I HATE that flat brimmed hat.

Guerini USA said my gun should be back in the US by the end of the week. Looking forward to shooting it again. I remember in 2010 when I shot it, I went to ATA shoots confident that I was going to place in singles or handicap that day and I usually did. By the end of 2011, that confidence was gone. So ready to start rebuilding my game.

Cal and Pop at the Grand last year.

Slaying Bluegills

Another nice weekend here. Went to the gunclub on Saturday and shot at some trap targets with two different Perazzi TM1s. Couldn't hit anything. Had a little more success with a borrowed high-ribbed Mossberg 500 trap gun.

Went back Sunday and we did some fishing, some nice bluegills in the pond.

Software update

I just spoke to the people at Guerini, my gun is hung up in customs in Milan, Italy, notorious for bureaucracy, until a software update in completed. They can't do anything about it. Starting to get the itch to shoot again, having some great weather here.

Here's a picture of Cal with his first BB gun a few years ago. His grandparents gave me money for his first shotgun, going to hold off a little longer.

Argentina, 4-Years Ago Last Week

Fillet Knife

Mosaic thong hole pin, green canvas Micarta handle. This sheath came out better, I got the edge nice and smooth and I like the antique finish. I double stitched it which took awhile. I cut the pattern in with a swivel knife and then beveled the edges. I started at the top and worked down, by the time I was done I was getting the hang of it.

I got an update on my Guerini, it was suppossed to be back last week. They said its hung up in Italy in customs and will be a few more weeks. Disappointed.

Another Knife

Just finished this knife/sheath combo. Polished the blade and put on a green canvas Micarta handle. I like this material, I buffed it and that put a nice sheen on it. The sheath came out good too although the dimensions are all wrong for the knife.
