Thread: Spilled beer on the desk

  1. #1

    Question Spilled beer on the desk

    Watcing the Detroit and San Jose hockey game while tying and bumped my beer over. It go it on some thread and some featers. Will it be OK after it dries out? Guess I'll find out soon but anyone else have a similar issue and hope materials aren't donzer.

    Hi Luckie,

    I'm sorry to say that the thread and the feathers will definitely ruin the taste of your beer. Everything else should be OK if you let it dry completely. Hope this helps, 8T

    Tie some flies and use 'em to fish during half time of the Civil War game this fall. In the immortal words "You'll make a killing!!"

    Default Got beer?

    Talk about "tying one on"?????

    You should use the soiled material and come up with new patterns.

    The Malted Midge
    The SAM Adams
    Pale ALE Morning Dun
    Molsen Golden Stone
    Lefty's Lager
    March Brown Ale
    Bavarian bassbug (I'm a little partial to that one)
    Rolling Rock Royal Coachman
    Labtt Blue Wing Olive
    Hops Hopper

    The possibilities are nearly endless.

    If you tie up some flies with that material, and don't let them completely air dry first, it could be considered "bait fishing."
    Where you go is less important than how you take the steps.

    Sorry to hear you spilled beer....that's a shame. If it was Guiness, tie up some classic wets with the material and head for brown trout water....us Deutschlanders can't resist a Guiness in any form:^)

    For the feathers, you can wash them in warm water and then blow-dry them...they'll be fine.
