Lady "Ringneck"

Post by willowhead » Sun Oct 23, 2011 8:36 pm

No, this is not a story bout what sometimes may cross your mind...........LMAO. Just wanted to thank Jim again. One of the cool things i found in his shop when we were there.....was a hen Ringneck Pheasent skin.......apparently quite a few people had overlooked it. It was hanging down low on the wall, near to the floor in the shop. i just did the first fly using it.....and it's beautiful stuff. i reccommend you get ahold of Jim and see if he can get you one.....gorgeous feathers. :D THANKX Jim..... ;)

Thanks for the thousand words. How about a picture, boss?

go to ebay...........type in Pheasent skins..........you'll find a pic of a Ringneck hen.........they all look the same if they're in good shape........and Jim doesn't sell junk ;) ..........this site limits the number of pics we can post.......each one is to precious to waste in such a way........sorry bout that........
i've tyed 40 (smallish/fishin') flies, and a few medium and one large artistic, just since i got home that are worthy of posting here............but, i'm easy to find..... :D Come to Sowbug in March.......you'll have the time of your life. 8-)

Photo posting limits? Just reread the regs and didn't see any mention of that. If there is a hosting limit, one can always upload to http://tinypic.com/ or elsewhere for free, fairly unlimited hosting.

Anyway, it's always nice to see pretty feathers deployed by skilled tiers . . . tiers from whom beginners and duffers like me can try to learn.
