Great historical post !
Its soft hackles,flymphs & nymphs & streamers.
I get the feeling that Overton's is the Holy Grail of wax. Probably never will never see it in person. I have been using an old tube of BT's clear wax & a very slightly darker wax by Gehrke's for a...
Well, there's two good looking flies !
When I was 10 years old I mail ordered a Hank Roberts flytying kit that looked very much like the one in your photo.
Yes , I really enjoyed that. We don't get skies that free of lite pollution- towns/cities.
A very good looking fly Fontinalis!
Mark Romero has been/is in my prayers. I'm on the Flymph site a couple times a day. He's a pretty stout hearted fellow !
I have a Regal Medallion vice with both midge & regular jaws.It's one sturdy vice! Had it now for many years & have cranked out a LOT of flies of all sizes with it.
Yep! This is a great thread! Nice Photo's also
I gave up on U.S. flyfishing magazines. They've been getting too political for me for a long time. They appear to write just for the advertisers. The only ones I read now are 2 U.K. based magazines,...
Neat article Donald! I look forward to your articles and posts where ever I find them.

Wow! looking at that picture,Who'da thunk of such a thing! Actually they use them on the leopard raindows in alaska
I recognize that purple fly! Its neat looking too
I go with Tyer_tying. I started out as a youngster reading old flytying books and that's how the authors spelled it.
I live North of Syracuse N.Y. Extra heavy snow fall? colder than normal? Isn't always that way??
You lucky dog you ! Thanks for posting the pictures for us!
Yep! Sounds like a plan !
Yup! I am an Amazon-Amazon U.K fan. I looked up Anglers Book of The Clyde & it listed as sold out late last night. I wish I knew the conversion rate for the currency. I think the Dollar will get...
In Flourocarbon Tippet material And mono I have nothing but praise for Frogs Hair. Fine diameter & good not strength . Been using it for years.
Some nice patterns! If I can I'd like to hit West Canada Creek, There's a great October Caddis hatch there. Also a blizzard White fly hatch right now.
I'm short & chunky & I look natural in long baggy summer shirts & pants. also pancake /flat or "gun loop" on belt type leather.
I fell back into glass rods awhile ago. Glass rods-Gotta luv em!
P.S the 2010 8ft is a good workhorse rod,I like the cosmetics on that year.
It wouldn't hurt to hunt down a couple of the...
