Wayne,

In a state of jaw drop,
Doug

Re: Starling and Purple
Mike, Well said about Alan P. He was a peach of a guy and a whiz at the vice not only with soft-hackles of all sorts but with feather wing streamers tied in the traditional way! Mounting two and sometimes four long hackles vertically on top of the hook shank is never as easy at the tying videos make...

Re: Generic Green Drakes
Pretty cool looking nymphs Wayne! They have just got to catch a trout! I love the contrasting copper colored strip on the back! That has to be a hot spot (trigger) to a watchful trout or salmon!
Great work friend! We wanna see more!

Re: Silk Color
Rex, How nice it is to hear from you again! How have you been? Silk color is usually determined by the pattern you wish to create! I have been re-reading Skues and he talks about how important it is to have your silk "harmonize" with the fur that you are using to make the pre-spun bodies w...
