"There's more B.S. in fly fishing than there is in a Kansas feedlot." Lefty Kreh
I can't say about fly fishing but there's a lot of feed lots in Kansas.

Very nice fly ties..... those will catch fish!
Very nicely done,that caddissy emerger is wonderful
It's been brought to my attention by an observant member that Tom Travis tied a PMD, not a PED flymph. I must admit, I had no dubbing that was the right color for a PMD, so I switched to a PED, Pale Evening Dun. Nice catch.

I'm a bit late with this post. It was initiated by the PED articles
by Ton Travis and Rons Flymph.

This, of course is a UK pattern,
don't know if it would suit over there.

Donald,
Very nice. It looks like it would work as well here as in the UK. A lot of Roger Woollie's patterns have found a place in my boxes, thanks to you steering me to his fine book. My only problem is finding camel fur in the US. Do you think silk dubbing or perhaps seal would work as well?

Ron,
I got some camel dubbing a while back from Jim Smith at
http://www.wetfly.co.uk/ he has a e-mail address on
his 'Link' page.
Let me know if you have no luck, this was about three years ago.
Donald,
Thank you, Sir. I'll give it a shot after I get back from ceremony, about mid-August.
