Simple, consistently tied; I would expect effectiveness times 4!

A great starting point as you introduce new tiers to the world of flymphs, but a reminder
for us all--let's remember, not to make it too complicated.

Thanks- Ken

Here is some of what I've been working on recently. I've seen some other patterns I need to try too, to add to these. Always great to have a variety of offerings for the fish and new patterns to try that will improve my skillset. Top: Leisenring Spider Right: March brown Bottom: Iron Blue Flymph Lef...

Norm,

Where are you buying the silk buttonhole twist – Coats and Clark’s 72-A primrose, size D?

Thanks- Ken

Check out Stephen Hankin's web site: Magpie Materials.

It's been mentioned here before. Admirers of his stuff include Old Hat, REE, and Charlie Craven, which speaks volumes!

He has added Riseform Hackle, including hen necks.

Norm, Norm, Norm--you've done it again--magnificent!

Here are the replies I received:

J Stockard: We don't have them now. We may carry them in the future.

Dette: Not currently in stock. We have them on order; expect spring 2025 delivery.

Ken

Yes, but when you click on Mike's site, it shows: "out of stock, due in during early 2025".
And his web site is far from "user friendly", at least during my experiences!

Thanks- Ken

I've e-mailed J Stockard and Dette Fly Shop to see if they will carry them too. Will update if they reply.
Nothing showed up from Amazon or ebay when searched.

Ken

I didn't see these hooks listed on the J Stockard web site.

Do you know who has them in stock and for sale?

Thanks- Ken

I wish I could help you, but I too have only a single spool of #4 (Light Yellow).

Sorry- Ken
