Re: Caddis Pupa/Attractors
I think I need to learn how to tie these. Nicely done, all of you.

Re: Czech variations
Nice, buggy fish-catchers for sure. What size hooks are those?

Re: Soft hackle stonefly
It's one of the ones from the stonefly box, Ray. I better not fill too many more boxes, or I will have to rent a u-haul trailer to get them to Montana. I also have a couple of midge boxes, two boxes full of soft hackles and a third box of mixed soft hackles and nymphs. :shock: Oh, wait, I forgot to ...

Soft hackle stonefly
Here is my version of a stonefly soft hackle. I don't know why the focus is so soft, but you get the idea.

Re: Madison cabbage
The hackle on the cabbage is a dark dun hackle from Conranch. Nice stuff to work with; I wish my photo did it justice.

Madison cabbage
Here is my version of Ron Eagle Elk's variation of the Wilted Spinach. http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag144/flintlockjohn/d6145a41-d15f-4f7f-8a61-d0b5aff03b78_zpsb95609a6.jpg Here is an original wilted spinach, tied with Hareline STS dubbing in golden stone.

Re: Stone Mouthfull SBS
Nice SBS. Not to be Joe Lawyer about it, but lead is prohibited in Yellowstone Park, so for flies you plan to use inside the park, you may want to substitute lead-free wire for lead wire.

Re: Charlie Brooks Speaks
Wow! Thanks for posting this link. Charles Brooks was one of my early fly-fishing heroes and I own several of his books. It is fascinating to hear his voice and I particularly liked his answer to question 6.

Re: Stonefly box
Thanks for the kind words, everybody! I doubt the box will look as neat after it has gone fishing (most of my fly boxes are a tangled mess). The stoneflies range in size from a #6, 4XL to a #10, 2XL. There are also a few Prince nymphs and possie buggers mixed in, and a few small black stones. P.S.: ...
