Very nice bugs! I have thought about tying some modern Bunyan Bugs myself to try during the salmon fly emergence this summer on the Yellowstone.
A few years ago I was given an old fly box by a friend who?s grandfather lived in Missoula. The box is crammed of some very interesting old flies. Then, when I opened one compartment there were, to my amazement, about ten old, Bunyan Bugs. Here are a few pics of them. These flies will not be fished.
