Hi Warmwater Friends,
As winter becomes an indisputable reality across much of the country and fishing becomes less and less likely as ice replaces water, it's time to settle into the old tying bench with a warming beverage. Soooo, what are you going to tie for spring? I'm going to start with a bunch of Cricket Nymphs as featured in Winter 2010 Fly Tyer magazine on page 20. With a natural squirrel or hare's ear dubbing, black eyes and long rubber legs, it's one of the buggiest flies I've ever seen. It looks like a great brim and bass fly. I hope to find a few other flies that inspire me as well. Then I will start on my legions of Gurgle Pops with which I will catch fish after fish after fish until I am exhausted. How about you? What are you tying? 8T
