Welcome Erik,

Nice job..as a Streamer Guy, I can appreciate what you have done. Nice to see another tandem tyer. What do you use to join hooks on that Tandem?

[eriksflys]

Hi guys,

Thank you for all of your comments. Still learning new techniques and tricks, but many years of hard work and frustration to get to this point. Even after 30 years of tying...if anyone has any thoughts about how to do something better, please comment and let me know! It's the only way for me to become a better fly tier! Thanks!

As far as they joining of the hooks. I use a 30 pound poly coated steel leader material. I believe it's Berkley that I use. They come in about 15 feet per spool and cost a couple dollars so it makes a nice tandem wire but it's cheap too Dave.

Hey Mike,

Yes, I use these on Lake Winnipesaukee as well as Merrymeeting Lake. Great patterns for both Salmon and Lake Trout. I caught this fish last year on a Single Hook Grey Ghost Size #8...was a great fight!
