Re: Claret Quill
Such a purpose driven tie. So ...,malignant. You can almost envision the evil intent inherent in it. To put it another way, if this pattern had a number on the side of it, it would be on a NASCAR track. More; if this pattern had wheels, we'd see it at Bonneville. I couldn't catch a fish on purple if...

Re: Lord Baltimore
I could hang landlocks all day long on that pattern. Of course, I can't tie like Norm so it's a moot point. Beautiful,
Norm!
Norm!

Re: Passadunk
Thank god, the pattern wasn't named after the Passagassawakeag. The Passadumkeag being only slightly better. Yeah, I didn't know Norm had a blog either!Ron Eagle Elk wrote: ↑Mon Aug 28, 2023 8:31 am So well done, Norm. This has a distinct New England flavor to it.

Re: DSM Caddis
Well done Bill! Simple pattern but very deadly during a Caddis hatch. The Deerfield, Swift and the Millers rivers , hence the name DSM. Lou I love, love, love the Deerfield. The Millers is great with the right water conditions; and completely overlooked. The Swift is way too crowded for my taste. B...

Re: Davy Wotton : Wet Fly Ways :

Nothing could be further from the truth - at least from how I understand it. I would venture a guess that most American anglers associate Softhackles...

Re: Starling & Olive
This one pattern; this one, is all I need to fish virtually any northern Maine water. So well done, Norm. I am never without a handful of these, ever.
