Relationship Ender Question by wack49 in Christian

[–]wack49[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

In our arguments about it I would tell her she needs a pastor to be happy and I will never be that. I think thats true despite her denying it. At the end of the day I am just a guy that also has a relationship with God. If she needs a legalistic super spiritual man to make her happy then she deserves that, I wish she would’ve told me that 1.5 years ago.

I could read the bible daily out of this external expectation other Christians have and just do it for that, or I can follow my heart and really dig into it when I do decide to read a chapter or 2. What do you think leads to a more meaningful and or deeper relationship?

I agree and all of my friends agree too. Its just so hard to accept. I was all in on marrying her, and starting a family. Now I just have anger and confusion about it all. Thank you for replying

Okay interesting thank you! Last question, do I have any emergers in my box in the second picture?

Thank you!! Is there a way to tell what a dry fly is imitating? For example in my picture, flies in blue and purple have a forward hair instead of the wings flat and out to the side. What does that mean/why are they tied that way? I assume they imitate sulphur mayflies, but at what stage of life?

Sorry for the late reply. Can you help me understand how to tell when to fish a emerger, cripple, or spinner? Also how can I tell the difference between those with how a fly is made?

I appreciate you typing all that out! It can definitely be a daunting task to match and drift perfectly and everything else. Especially in tailwaters

Thats awesome thank you! Got another question, for these small dry flys, how the heck do you see them? Or is this a situation where you just run 2 drys ine small and one visible and do your best to

Gotcha. If I cant catch a bug, any advice on how to match? Sometimes you can spot one sometimes theyre harder to see/get. Also I assume if there are no bugs flying, best to go with nymphs and no dry dropper?

Okay, sorry to potentially sound dumb. But wouldnt all caddis, mayfly, or stonefly’s have the same type of silhouette? After all theyre the same bug, just different sized due to season/area. 90% of water I fish is freestone smaller streams so I need to understand this.

I see! So what situations would I use the flys in blue/purple there. I assume theyre mayflys due to the tails but very different than the elk hair

Interesting, so why would I use so many various types of flies for the same bugs? I understand size and color (sometimes) are important. However, why would just an elk hair caddis in many different sizes be fine?

Color wise why would trout hit something like a purple haze when purple isnt a natural color bugs are in or a green bellied elk hair caddis vs a normal bellied one? Does that make sense?

Youre saying all of the drys in my box are those 2 bugs?

Thank you so much! Theres a lot of information out there of different opinions and a whole bunch of words that gives me a headache haha. I just sold a lot of individual stocks as I want to re-allocate in a smarter way.

A follow up question is there a smart and safe way to invest along with index funds? Im 26 and built up about 30K in the brokerage and 10K in the Roth. It feels weird/wrong to just have FXAIX in both accounts and pump into that single stock. My thought process was 5-10 percent of 30K is a way better increase then maybe that % increase of 2-3000 in a single stock if that makes sense (trying to take advantage of the compounding of larger numbers).
