Are you preparing for a hatch, or playing around with the “bling” series? Either way I’m enjoying the flies. Well designed fishing flies.

Please report back, once you’ve had a chance to fish these (no doubt) effective patterns. ;)

Ray,

The Drakes were tied because the hatch charts for the Deschutes river say the bugs may be around. The rest is just making the bling dubbing for some favorite bugs. 60 years of blending dubbing and my supply is still expanding! ;)

I am refinishing cabinets at Camp Roadkill and hope to get out and test them this week with ronr.
