Not a fan of the heat and humidity any longer,but love my heat in the winter LOL

Read that this morning on his grandsons post. I was very shocked and sadden. He will be missed . RIP COOL CAT.

We have plans to hit PD in a couple of weeks bud. Will let you know when . Made my own 60 deg shank with a tube hook trailer articulating fly.

Speaking of far,I mailed out a package today that will be heading to Ecuador . A package of trout flys.

Thanks Doug. Any purple of pink ones hanging around? LMAO

I have searched high and low and covered youtube as best I could Cliff. NADA. I know Cliff pops on here every blue moon. Send him a pm.

Thanks for the comments all . I really like working with something new . Gets the brain waves al giddy . I bought a lot box of fly tying stuff . Some stuff was old and useless, but, there was this interesting vise with an adapter on it . Research and low and behold,it,s for tube flys . Search the box and there are some supplies and 2 rod needles . So youtube I go . I only have limited supplies, but managed to come up with my first go of a tube fly. Reverse palmer .There is a Canadian company that sells supplies . Looking forward to another adventure . Can always teach an old dog new tricks .

Starting to get requests for other ties . Some are from BC. I am always willing to try and please customer requests. It,s a new challenge for me,but once I got rolling, it,s alot of fun. Was on the river this morning and trying to fly fish the last tie, but the wind was brutal . There was a guy very curious on what I was using. He was so impressed with it, he ordered 6 of them along with 6 of the pink. I was wowed. Did not even know this guy. 20241101_083929.mp4

#6 Doug Edit to add. Those are 1/4" tungsten beads. I also have 7/32". I tied 5 sets of 10 ,each color in the pic of both sizes.

Lots of talk about were going to have a very good ice season . Let's hope Full glow ice grubs .

Very nice. Glad to see cork . Hate this carbon stuff that been going around.

Had a guy see my invention of cluster soft beads . Tells me they would work great out there. Orders a half doz to start .Seems he was right .
