    Default Big time testing today

    I started tying my own flies in August of 09 and i will only be fishing with my flies this year. I did some casting in my pool today with a furled leader and some of my flies on the end of it. I don't have any experience with furled leaders or how my flies hold up during casting (when i first started tying they would fall apart while casting). Well i found that i love furled leaders, they roll cast amazingly, set my fly on the water ever so lightly! And for MY flies, well all the ones i tied on all held up without coming undone and floated very well (no floatant)!!!! My casting surprised me today as did the leader and flies! Come on trout season!!!!
