well done... they both look a lot better than what I got done... what kind of dubbing did you use? I tried tying several but I kept getting worse at it and more frustrated, so I gave it a rest for a...

Good job Alan and thanks for the tip. #1 tie small lead eyes on the hook near eye, leave about 1/8". #2 tie in some "mirage tinsel". #3 make dubbing loop with string AND tinsel approx 3X desired...

thanks. I should have posted this sooner I guess but all the fly is is rabbit zonker strips, 2 beads, and some flash. The 2 beads go between the 2 peices of zonker that get wrapped around the hook....

I'm actually deployed and won't get a chance to get their opinion til this fall... and I can't wait. I've been tying a lot of flies to pass the time though :)

I had a hard time trying to figure out how to add the pics... I'll figure it out one day.

I ceated this fly by accident sort of while I was messing around. It looks good to me and I wanted to share it. When it's dry it looks like a huge ugly hairball, but when it's wet it has a nice...

it's very impressive... looks great

I had the same thought... and that has A LOT to do with why I never fished them. On a spinning reel you can be more versitle as far as how deep you want to fish... I don't see you being able to...

I tied something VERY simular to this a couple years ago also... I never fished it much either, or ever I don't think. I was going along the line that it resembled a rubber worm, I think this will...

If anyone donated anything to my tying class and did not get an email letting you know that I got it, it's because I never got your package. Plese let me know so I can try to track it down. My...

since you guys brought up crappie... I'm teaching some guys to tie and one guy wants to specifically tie "crappie" flies. I can't find much of anything on the internet about crappie flies. Can you...

Thank you very much Allan. There is no doubt that we will be able to use whatever it is you send. I keep looking forward to the day that I get back on here and thank everyone. Mail is taking a...

Thank you everyone for the information... I think I will try some and see how it goes and go from there.

Thanks

What can anyone tell me about tube flies? I'm looking at them for smallmouth bass. I've never used one or tied one, just happened to find it on the internet. Does anyone have experience with them...

Everyone, as always, THANK YOU very much for being a huge part of me being able to give this calss. I recently found out that some friends from Capital City Fly Fishers in Jefferson City, MO have...

A couple people have asked specifically what I need... Honestly I don't know. My biggest fear is not having enough vices, tools, and hooks. On the other hand, I don't need everyone sending that and...

First of all, thank you all very much for your interest in helping me get this started.

A little about me... I'm from Missouri. I went to college in Branson and wish I had known about fly...

Thank you, Allan for bringing up a good point. Thank you very much for your intrest to helping us out.

Hello, my name is Phil Bonnel and I am currently deployed to the Middle East. I am going to be giving a fly tying class to about 6 other soldiers but I anticipate more becoming interested once we get...
