Hey, Jim, Send me your snail mail address and I'll send along some Flymphs and Soft Hackles that will work just about anywhere. REE
Thanks, Betty. Just got a PM from Char. Appreciate the helping hand, as always.
Hey, Charlaine, Been a while. I ran into a guy who has part of Denny's Conranch flock. I asked if he got any of Denny's breeding records when he got the birds and he didn't. I know Denny kept...
Man, I hate to hear this. I'm gonna miss Jack. Always celebrated his birthday at the Idaho Fish-In. Rest well, my friend.
I got the same sermons from my Dad. Not religious at all, but spiritual just the same. What tree, flower, plant is that, what can you use it for, who made that track, walking or running? Did you...
Rain drop Damascus? Very nice. I am a complete sucker for Damascus steel. I own several blades and a tomahawk made from different pattern Damascus. They have a special place in my man cave.
Just read on another forum that Ronn Lucas Sr, a wonderful fly dresser, hook maker and contributor to this site has passed from the mortal coil at the age of 78. No info as to the cause of death. ...
The swaps here used to come fast and furious. I hosted many, myself, and participated with many others. It's a shame participation had dropped off. It was a great way for new tyers to get some...
Not sure how that spinner tail will affect casting, but once you get that puppy in the water, you'd better have a good grip on your rod, because something is gonna slam that fly. Nicely done.
Thanks, Fellers. Unfortunately, I've been abed with some creeping crud (cough, congestion, fever, chills) provided by my grandson. I think grandchildren are the typhoid mary's of the modern age.
I just use a clinch know to secure tippet to a tippet ring. Been doing that for decades now.
That's a beauty, Norm. First reaction after opening this thread...Wow! Very nice.
Alee, Clyde and Tummel style flies are tied with short to very short bodies on larger hooks and have worked very well for decades, if not centuries. Take you size 12 hooks and tie your fly on the...
I may have some 20 pound Dacron backing laying around here somewhere. If your not in a hurry, if I have it, I can bring it on the 7th.
Sorry to hear that, Joe. I remember him from the old days.
Thank you, Norm. Brilliant dressing as always. I've never fished Hornberg as a dry, only as a wet fly. I may have to change things up a bit.
Norm, the recipe is good, but there's no photo.
Very nice work, Dave, and a very good idea. Makes me wish I still had my table saw.
Jim, where are you in Maine? I'm kinda in the middle, near Bangor. Moved here from Washington State about 4 years ago. Still finding my way around. I've had good luck with Brookies in The West...
Used to be the photo had to be on a photo hosting site like photobucket. That may have changed though. Been many years since I uploaded a photo.
Clay, one of the guys on the flymph forum told me about Wholesale Fly Company. I've been using their hooks for a couple years and have no complaints at all. Price on most hooks is $7 a hundred. ...
Nice fly but..."Flymph-A wingless artificial fly with a soft, translucent body of fur or wool which blends with the under color of the tying silk when wet, utilizing soft hackle fibers easily...
So, Steve, how was the Ford fishing? Wasn't the metal bridge broken at one time?
