Keep us wild animals fed with your great works!

Re: Inspiration....from the web
Dear Roadkill, This is really neat! Thanks for posting the picture of this fly. Oh yea! Subtle differences.... how many times this has made such a difference in a perfect days fishing or an average days! Our finny friends down below really are quite sharp when it comes to eyesight! Again, thanks! Do...

Hard water
Is anyone else just a little put out about all the ice that has landed on our stillwaters? To those of you who have running water at your disposal, how's the fishing? On the up-side of this minor set back, tying has increased and that goes a long way to lift ones spirits. I can't wait to get home fr...

Inspiration....from the web
Dear Fellows, Has anyone back-tracked to "flymph.com" lately? I was prowling around there yesterday and found (again) the pictures of the flymphs tied by the great Pete Hidy. They are fantastic in both proportion and all around bugginess. They have inspired me to immitate Petes work. There...

less is more...??
Gentlemen, Here's a dandy question for you this evening. Even though I enjoy tying and fishing wingless wet flys (flymphs), I also enjoy tying and fishing other types of flies too such as nymphs (yes, weighted) and streamers and the occasional sorted affair with a cork popper or deer hair bug. My mo...

Re: Turner Yellow
Hans, Lovely pattern! The body of this fly has just the "look" I am looking for.....most of the time. Dubbing brushes are a unique thing as no doubt you have been following the various post by letumgo et al. I am getting a kick out of seeing all the blocks and devices that are used by ever...

Re: Intuition...Yes or No??
Gentlemen,
These are great!! I really like reading these "situations". They provide alot of insight into that fine line between instinct and experience. Anyone else? Please keep them coming!

Re: Dark Hare's Ear Spider (Leisenring Style)
Yea, but it's going fast. Mostly around my waist line! They say that shoveling snow helps this condition. Stop in Ray. I'll even make coffee!

Intuition...Yes or No??
Gentlemen, A curious thought occured to me this past season. It has to do with intuition or instintively knowing when a strike has occured (or will occur) aside from the obvious signs such as the sight of our flylines going the opposite direction or the crinkle (or boil) where your fly is suppose to...
