    OK, folks. So far I only have flies from Mike and feenom. If you haven't put them in the mail yet now is the time. If you're having a problem meeting the deadline, let us know.

    My flies were sent Monday, Oct. 31st (local mail). My fly is, Toby's QT Nymph, size20. It doesn't stand for 'cutie', and you will know why when you see the fly. Smallest and hardest I have tied to this date. For the veterans, it should be quite easy. It will catch fish. Guarenteed!

    "I've often wondered why it is that so many anglers spend so much money on,and pay so much attention to.the details on the wrong end of the fly line.If they took as much care in selecting or tying their flies as they did in the selection of the reel and rod,They might be able to gain the real extra edge that makes it possible to fool a fish that has,in fact,seen it all before" A.K.Best

    Everyone wants to excel in this sport but at the same time we let traditionalists place restrictions on our tactics, methods, and ideas. I always assumed that fly fishing was a sport that allowed imagination, creation, adaptation, investigation, dedication, education, revelation? : Fox Statler, On Spinners (Not the dainty Dry Fly kind) "Spinner'd Minner Fly"

    Flyingcarp's QT Nymphs came in today. They're amazingly small and I think they'll be great for December trout.

    I'm waiting for the last two sets to come in and then I'll ship them out to everyone. In a couple of hours I'm going to go and get some surgery to deal with kidney stones but should be home tonight or tomorrow morning. In case I'm out of it for a few days, thanks in advance for your patience.
