Scott,
You obviously put a lot of work into this. It's a great resource, and I'm going to enjoy browsing through it. Thank you for all your effort!
Mike,
Am I correct in assuming I'd cut the fur up into small pieces? Underfur and all?
Hey all,
A friend of mine who gave up on tying handed me two coyote tails. I never turn down free materials, but I'm only in the intermediate phase of tying, so I don't really know of many flies...
These are great ideas! We have another 5 - 8" of snow on the way Monday :mad: but SOME DAY the ice will melt and I'll be out there! Keep the suggestions coming!
Coach Bob, which one did you buy?
I'll mow it if you'll put me up for a few day so I can fish! :)
Hey everyone,
We have snow coming once again here in Rhode Island, but I'm looking ahead. Last year was the first time I targeted bass and panfish from my kayak, and I plan to do the same this...
Jim,
You would do that for me? What a selfless person! :D We just added another three inches of snow today, so you'd have plenty of time to "test" them out for me.
Thanks everyone!
Howdy,
Here's yet another silly question: where do you store your flies? I've just recently returned to tying as a way to pass this snowy winter (in fact, it's snowing pretty heavily right now...
Were did you get the bit? And the mesh is a great idea!
This looks great! Is the bit you used one you made or bought? And how did you do the scales?
Hi again,
Buddy, it sounds like this could be a pretty challenging time for me... but I may still go for it. Charlaine, I'm usually mid-state or south; I'm from Richmond. Really don't know the...
Howdy all,
I had a lot of fun in my first summer trying bass fishing... so much so that I'd like to hear your view on fishing as winter sets in. Is the bite still on? Worth the shot? If so,...
Dang! Answers illustrated with more great photos! Thanks a lot!
Great instruction and photos! Two questions from a near rookie: 1. what does SHHAN stand for? Tried looking it up here and couldn't find it. 2. what color combos would look good (if any) as a trout...
Got it! Thanks for another tip, Dave!
Hey everyone,
My purchase of a kayak last year has led to a lot of fun fishing for gills and bass on ponds. One problem, though: even the lightest wind seems to blow me around like a feather. I...
This NY Times story answers a lot of questions that have been asked here. Cicadas are seriously odd critters, and they do indeed have 13- or 17-year cycles. Check this out:...
Thanks, Gigmaster! Didn't think about small corks. What do you suggest gluing with? Superglue?
Spoof: I'm experimenting with different materials: styrofoam (made from a bobber), closed cell foam, and maybe cork.
Hey again,
I've had a ton of great suggestions for my earlier thread on making poppers, and I'm having a great time learning! Watching a video made me think of a question: rather than use epoxy...
Great start! Thanks for the information!

Here in Rhode Island, we got about an inch! Just a little different!
Thanks for the help!

Hi,
My wife is heading to Manchester on business this weekend, and I have a chance to go with her if I want to. On the other hand, I don't want to just wander around bored out of my skull.
