Trout Bum hooked me!
Hans, I hope you don’t let fish mess up those beautiful flies.
The material is absolutely great for trico spinner wings on spring creeks. It lets light in and has a perfect density. The only problem which is synonymous with spring creeks is lack of vision--the...
Thanks everybody, very under rated fly and super presentation and discussion by all.
:DScott, you have waaaay toooooo much time on your hands. Having said that it is probably a fish catching ninja.
No hackles bury me.
I don?t sell them but truly enjoy giving many of them to my friends or people I meet on the river who are struggling with a fly that simply isn?t going to work.
?Fur out man"
Thanks for all the suggestions.
I was trying with this thread for the first time today and had a terrible time cutting it. I have a sharp pair of Dr. Slick razor scissors but we don?t seem to be cutting it. Anyone else have this...

A friend of mine recently showed me his collection of about ten hooks all marked the same size yet few were actually the same physical size. His point was it is hard to mix and match if you want...
I think this is a case for DNA
thanks guys, I appreciate your time and quick response. Whats with Charlie using CDC for a Mole fly, he is always confusing me but i think i get the picture.
Scott, does that mean you have to pay cash at Blue Ribbon!!!!!!!!!
I am looking for a good down and dirty guide emerger pattern. Anyone have a hot on?
four 40 year old Hardys because they simply will not die. Looks like i am going to go before they do.
four hardys because after 40 years they won?t wear out.
