Re: Little Gray Bastard :-)
John,
Your boxes look like bins in a fly shop! They look great! Can we come to your shop if we get low on certain patterns? Have you tied commercially before?

Re: Brown Drake Spider
John,
You are keeping the spider tradition alive with your unique looking pattern! I can see where you would not have to change flies as often with this one! You would have it covered from the gloaming until way after dark!

Re: Hare and Copper
Bearbutt,
You made me laugh with your comments about gathering bullock hair and squirrels! John, a very interesting looking squirrel dubbing in your picture! I'll have to check that brand out! It is such a versatile dubbing!

I like what is done with the feather tip (it becomes a wing) and, at least to me, the way it looks! Using the filmy, base feather is not new but, you have done a terrific job in executing it on ...

Now, that's a pretty interesting looking fly! Yes, a series of flymphs end to end! I like this! We gotta know how it's linked (hinged?) together!
Thanks for bringing it to us friend!
