I'm with Lou on the "old school" list. Look forward to receiving my copy of Fly Tyer 4 X a year. Yes, some issues are better/more interesting than others, but I learn something from every issue. Once upon a time, I received Fly Fisherman and Fly Rod & Reel too, but those days are gone....

Okay, the search is on. I've tried the Dr Slick "Extra Hand Tweezer", which are serrated, but I still break the tips off some the starling feathers with them.

Wayne,

Ron, My purchase arrived on Friday. Certainly not "unread" like your recent arrival, but money well spent. Pages are unmarked; dust jacket has some staining. A nice reading/reference copy. It will make a good gift for someone who doesn't have their own copy. Only 11 months until Christmas ...

Beautiful, Wayne. I especially like the B13's. Those will work up here, and work well. Heck yes. I found the love for light Yellow a few years ago. I haven't looked back. Wayne, Tie up some of these from Leisenring's book (page 111): Light Snipe & Yellow Body: Yellow (Primrose) Rib: Gold Wire H...

The great deals continue, so be patient and keep a watchful eye. Look here and rejoice with me!

I'm off work today for the Federal holiday. It was a brutal 2 degrees again here this AM in Central Oklahoma. Wanted to get some time at the vise, which lately has been far too infrequent, before watching our 13-year-old granddaughter play basketball this afternoon. I thought I would pull some feath...

Alright--victory for the home team! Congrats REE. I thought about bidding, thinking it could be good to have a 2nd copy that would be great for the next Secret Santa Swap. I'm glad I didn't drive up the price. I'm sure the seller is surprised/disappointed!

Tight Lines- Ken
