Re: Jungle Cock

In my next life I want to come back with Norm's sense for proportions. Beautiful tie, Norm.

Re: More Louis Rhead

Is that a grunge thing? Ray just coined a new fly fishing term: Stream Punk!

Re: Some "New to Me" Hooks to Try

That's the problem with Partridge: proportions. Actually, it isn't Partridges' fault; obviously, it's mine. Just when I get a pattern figured out...

Nice review, T.

Re: Louis Rhead

I really like Ray's thought of fishing this pattern in Roscoe. I'd love to see Ray's tutorial, and then pictorial, of the end result. I love learning new history...

Re: Starling skins

Thank you, everybody; good links. I hadn't even considered that Ebay would be a good source...

Starling skins

Cookshill is being difficult; does anybody have another source for high quality Starling that they could share with me? Thanks.

Re: Mole-Tron Flymph

Any of these three patterns is worth fishing; they're gorgeous. But the third pattern is the the one, the one I'm stealing. Wonderful ties, Bill. Thank you.

Green seems to be second only to black up here; gorgeous fly, I've stolen it for next season. Thanks for posting it up.
