"Just Old Flies and stuff!"

I recently did a bit of administration work checking out the "Just Old Flies" archive listing, and I found some errors. I went through the 500 articles in the archives, and found that some articles misplaced, and other missing completely. I sent Ronn Tidd a list of all the article I could find URL addresses for. The current Just Old Flies article, is "The Proctor" which has been up on the current page, for 8 or 9 weeks.

Here are the past articles that have run on "Just Old Flies" since "The Proctor" (which is still on the current "Just Old Flies" page)... that are not currently listed on the archives listing!

If you cannot find some article, I have all available articles of "Just Old Flies and stuff!" , available in PDF (requires Adobe Reader) or if you wish, I can otherwise send you the correct URL address. You can contact me at....parnelli@comcast.net

Very cool, i love that one with the trailer hook.

Thanks for that.

Thanks Steven

Thanks from me also, great having you back on the board!:cool:

I love old flies, these are great, thank you! :D

The picture of the Green Drake Streamer is missing at the top of the article. Steven, thanks for all you've done over the years for Just Old Flies and FAOL as a whole. I know it's been greatly appreciated by all.

Here's the Green Drake Streamer:

Eric: I did not realize that, when I did my PDF copy of the Green Drake. Since you sent in the Green Drake Photo, I will copy and paste it and create a new pdf article for anyone who wishes a down load. I have all the other Just Old Flies and stuff articles available, as well as all the Fly of the Week Articles, and many other boards.

Just contact me at parnelli@comcast.net
Subject Line: FAOL PDF

Then tell me what you are looking for either I already have it, or I can easily make a pdf copy to send you. Matter of fact I have read just about everything that has ever been published on FAOL, and I know where to go looking if it is missing from the archives listings....

The link to the current article works from the archive but not from the main menu.

I must admit I am rather partial to that article on The Proctor, though. :)

It did a week ago, but apparently not now.

Sent you an email from bugman9@peoplepc.com... i like tying old flies myself and some of the materials are extremely hard to come by if not almost impossible for flies tied back in the 1800s...
