Re: Coq n' Copper

Re: Grateful Red Nymphs
Oh I've definitely got to tie a pattern called the "greatful red" ! I named one of my soft hackles the Tennessee Jed. I'll have to post some pics. Glad I'm not the only dirty hippie in the lot

Re: Bird's Nests color combos
Great work! I actually have a lot or Cal's birds nest dubbing from his personal collection as well as some of his dyed flank and various other dubbing blends if anyone would like to see photos for reference.

Re: Green Damsel
Very nice! Tying a damsel built as a traditional wet fly is not something I've ever seen or considered. Very cool.
