    Default Lord Iris

    Another interesting fly pattern from Eric Austin, along with the background history on the person who originated the pattern, and the thought process involved with its creation.

    It has had me wondering for a long time, just how fickled anglers can become , leaving effective fly patterns behind and forgotten, moving on to some patterns that is reported to be either new or improved.

    I have dressed many a hook using some of the "Old Flies" that have been showcased on FAOL, and found that they are very effective in catching fish.

    Eric! Thank you for another find article, you are one of my favorite writers, I love reading what you have to write.

    In connection with the above, there is a new book, being offered this month in FAOL's Monthly Drawing, "The New Scientific Angling" (Trout & Ultraviolet Vision) written by Reed E. Curry. Humankind has been catching fish quite well, over the centuries, why do we keep tossing away what which works?
