Hi Al and Gretchen,

Thanks for the article, nice job, and the background information was also interesting to read.

We have a small pool in the backyard, which my wife and I filled with water last night. This evening I looked at it and there are a LOT of bugs on it, some small (maybe #14 or #16 white moths), and a ton of flies. Some look like bottle flies, the larger ones, and there are smaller ones that look like house flies.

Good pattern, now I need to tie some also.

Thank you for the great pattern.

Thanks and regards,

Gandolf
