Greg,
Thanks a lot for the suggestions, I'll send a PM in a few. I'm going to look for the pheasant for sure, and I'll lookup the ribbed hares ear too. I don't think I'm quite ready for a swap yet. Still too sloppy with my tying. But when I'm ready, you'll know Thanks a lot Greg, I appreciate everythign.
Rick,
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll look it up and see what I need. I do have a 7wt, but it's crap, with crap line, and crap reel So I'll build something up during next winter for my pike trip next Summer. Thanks a bunch!
Speaking of dubbing.....I hate it! Takes some practice huh?
Thanks so much everyone!
Shane
