Do not worry if you do not have forceps a pen will work fine as well for loops exspecially the smaller ones
I take my forceps and insert into the loop and give a bit of stretch and hold, sometimes I will take the wax that I use on the ferrules for the rod and work in with my fingers than stretch. Works for...

Myself I find that the Uni thread is great for dries. I myself will treat with Red mucilin and it is my preferred treatment and let me stress "my preferred treatment". It will last 45 mins. to an...
All packed up and ready for the mail, not bad if I must say so myself, not bad at all.
Had fun with these, I will just need to order some more rings for the next swap.

My Olive Dun 5.5 ft. 6/0 Uni 12-10-8-6 combination along with goodies will be ready for the mail on Monday. Only have a few left to do, Shorb loop on butt end and a 2mm tippet ring on the other.

Fly(s) and leader what a concept...lol...cmbination almost sounds fishable. I am in
The 4 lb. I furl is a bit thick but the fishers here use them for bass bugs and larger deer hair flies. The 6 lb. Vanish is used here for Pike, Muskie and heavy bass slop fishing.
Here is a copy...
Nothing different for Canada, it may take an extra day or two in the mail but that is it.
That would be fine with me, they have been known to receive the odd Fry Flier Leader as it is.
Same pattern here as well, I use 6/0, 8/0 Uni, Danville Mono, 6# Trilene Vanish, 4# mono and .015 sewing thread nylon and Braid(do not care for braid, by request only) .
If a Canadian can play, he will furl................

Great to see you back Steven, I myself was on the missing list for the past year or so. Busy, home, life and such.

Welcome to the multinational forum.............
I have thought about it but the hold up is that no one around here has anything like that. A poor excuse I know with everything available on the internet, I just like to see I guess before I...
Welcome to the forum, Fly Fishing is a s easy as you make it. A lot of people force it and find that they now have problems, if you take a bit at a time and remember to enjoy it as you go you wil be...

I use a 4...
