So sorry to hear of her passing. Truly a loss. RIP.
I fished in some Virginia streams from Tuesday thru Saturday in super wind chill conditions and used the Davy knot without fail. I used it for nymphs, midges, dries, and streamers with no issue at...
WOW that really pops!
Knowing Joe he may be knee deep in the Ohio River this morning chasing White Bass -- or pursuing Smallies - or going after Trout. That guy LOVES to fish that is for sure.
I sincerely appreciate the great info. This really helps me out.
Thinking of a possible mid to late June trip to the Ogden UT area. Anyone care to share if the local waters are fishable by then?
I enjoyed a trip out that way for work a few years back and...
I attended the show today with my 11 year old son and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Got a chance to chat with AK Best and Mike Schmidt and both were engaging and readily offered advice. AK Best did...
Outstanding! My 3 year old and I just watched it and loved it.
I trail my soft hackle patterns 24 inches behind a bead head nymph. I jokingly call my weighted patterns "soft hackle delivery flies" since I am trying to get the SH down in quick current. I do not...
Steven- You and yours are in our prayers. Hang in there! Best regards
I am thinning my arsenal a bit by selling a Diamondback 9067 2 piece. Rod has been barely used and is in excellet condition. It is a super stick but just does not get the time on the water since I...
Have had my Peak for 4 years and love it. I tie trout patterns down to 24 with no problem-- and I do alot of smallmouth bear hear jigs with stout 3/0 Gammi hooks with no issues either. Great quality...
JV Hen Hackle is the cats arse in my opinion. I just tied a few buggers and a dozen soft hackles this evening with that very product and they look great if I dont say so myself. Give him a call- you...
I have dealt with Denny several times and I owe 4 different JV Hen Hackles and his product is only surpassed by his service. I live in OH and like some others have posted my check and his product...
I love my Peak and tie Smallmouth hair jigs on it with size 4/0 hooks with no problem. I dont use the rotary funtion alot but it is a great value in my opinion.
Welcome Ewan. You will fit right in here among this motley crew. There are some truly talented folks here and I know they will treat you right.
Again, welcome!
I received a new product alert from Feather Craft in my email. It had a neat looking item called the Magic tail Minnow. It is a piece of white ultrasuede combined with one of the magic heads (round...
I would like to join please.
Pattern will be tied on a Partride Marinaro hook, size 24.
Sounds like a great swap!
Jim--I really enjoyed your article. Good luck in you quest for Breamzilla.
Can you post a few fly photos?
Also, when pursuing these monsters what size tippet are you using?
Thanks, and take...
Got my flies done today!
I was torn between two patterns butI think you all will be happy with the one that made the final cut. It is one that has worked for me all over and does a nice job of...
I agree with Okiebass--my two are:
a) thread contol
b) proportions
I too want to thank Hans for his ongoing efforts in sharing his fly tying skills. I am a better tier and angler after...
I emailed you my address this past sunday evening--I sent it to you again just now.
Thanks
Please count me in! Sounds like a hoot.
My suggestion is a six foot 2 weight. The shorter rod is more efficient in dealing with overhead trees and the tight rhododendren canopy. That is my favorite rod and it handles streamers,dry flies,...
Mine are done! Just have to get them toe taqged and ready to ship out on Monday.
Looking forward to seeing the other creations.
