jelous? Yes!;) , just love fishing with gummy bears:D You ever tried just making a tail with the stuff and building the rest of the fly with materials for a little added movement? To me that is the most deadly part of a streamer is how much movement and the wide silouhuette you can make by using regular materials. I take it that is what you make that one sac fry pattern out of?

[phishin incident]

Is that the Avalanche hole? Ill mostly be on the S. Platte, heard great things so far about the Spring run....everyone knows ill post pictures when i get back.

Fry Sac pattern? I made a fry, with the silly skin, but it looked like crap, that stuff is actually not that easy to work with. How do you like that Smolt? Im quite proud of that creation....

It looks good, but you had to know I was going to give you a hard time, I have never used it before. I imagine it would be hard to work with. Do you have to heat it to make it cure?

[phishin incident]

No, its sticky like tape. It adheres to itself but, you have to have it lined up right the first time, there is no second tries.

Hey, i heard you bought $200 in materials the other day, lets see the flies man!

I don't know how to tie flies...

Didn't you know that the old rusty van by the river is actually Kory's resale outfit? ;) He buys stuff all over the place and sells it down by the river with a 100% mark up. :D

Sounds like a good business plan. A streamside mobile fly shop.:D Anyway the real reason I can't tie is I accidentally knocked my vise off the table and well it broke.:mad: So no tying until I can buy another one...

[GoldenOliver]

With all this snow I sat down and tied an army of Headbanger Hexes in pink and orange. I also tied a few with the standard philoplume tails. I am heading to the PM this weekend with a friend and needed to stockpile on flies. I just tied up some of the PM standards - nothing too fancy.

Sorry, this pic is a bit blury...

[phishin incident]

Ok Jordan, top left is a white bunny spey which is on a AJ hook, but I tie a lot of these on aluminum tubes as well. left is an intruder tied on a waddington shank. bottom is a marabou spey on a copper tube. And the 3 on the right are all bunny leeches tied on tubes....

[phishin incident]

Nice Bum. I have just never gotten into tying Flies on plastic tubes...seems awkward to me, i do however try to tie as many "articulated" flies as possible now, they work well and just look good, and if you get a few down they seem almost as easy as plain-old flies, with a few extra steps..worth it!

Lets see some more Flies everyone!

Here's some serious fly porn for ya. I'm heading up a donation for Reel recovery which is an orginization which helps Cancer Survivors deal with what they have been through by taking them on get aways where they teach them fly fishing. Myself and a fellow rod builder are heading it up and so far we have 15 custom built fly rods, $1000, and 1,892 flies in boxes to donate to them. Here's a pic of the flies so far:cool:

Nice! Classic spread Vito. What was that on the back of the Grizzly hex? Looked like more than a strand of flash.

Thanks man. There is peacock herl under the flash. Gives the flash a little more pop with it underneath.

I prefer compartment boxes for steelhead nymphs and eggs mostly because I'm lazy about placing all the flies in nice and neat. My favorite box is cheap and holds a ton of flies because it has two sides. It also fits nicely in the front pocket of a jacket or pack. Looks like this...

[phishin incident]

I have been tying a ton, I haven?t been able to fish nearly as much as I would like, I take my last final this Mon. so I wont have to worry about Schooo no moe. One trip planned to MI before I leave :( but a work week spent on the AU, should be awesome. Streamers and Drys!

Next semester ill be pretty close to some dece. Muskie fishing so I cant help but want to tie some monster stuff, I hope to get one on a fly before next winter....
