Hi Wayno,
Sshhhhh. . .don't tell the other folks :) (another pattern that works
surprisingly well is a Rio Grande King Trude pattern . . .kinda think of a
Pass Lake with a Golden Pheasant tippet tail. I don't use chenille or
peacock for the body, but just synthetic body material. I also don't quite
do the front portion of the fly as Wolfgang did for a swap. (ROFF FS 2000)
I also do the wing before I do the hackle. (Hmmmm . . .different tail,
different body, different wing position on the body, different hackle
position, same black thread . . . maybe different size of thread . . .
sounds like the same pattern to me . . . grin)

Bill Claspy did another version of the Pass Lake for the ROFF FS2004 swap.
Looked like more of a streamer version. (which may have been where it
started)

Took the pattern directly from Royce Dam's book. My understanding is that
it is/was originally a streamer pattern. Here's another somewhat clearer
picture of the one I tied:

I've only fished it once or twice and haven't caught anything on it. Hoping
to get some instruction from our resident Curdistani during Penns. Got room
on your dance card, Wolfgang?

Sure thing......um.....looks like I've got some tying to do.....unless
Joel and Wayno will let me borrow a Pass Lake or two? :)

Incidentally, I suspect all of the bugs named in this exchange
(excepting the streamer version of the PL) work for precisely the same
reason.....that big chunk of meat hanging below the surface and
suspended there by the hair wing looks like a crippled
something....and the fish don't much care just what that something is.

Black Earth Creek. I'll send you an Email with details.

Ditto Black Earth Creek. There are also a lot of other streams within
a couple hours drive of Madison. Joel and Wayne Knight are more
familiar with the area than I am, so you should hit them up for more
specific recommendations.

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources publishes a guide to
regulations detailing what limits pertain to virtually all of the
trout water in the state:

http://dnr.wi.gov/org/water/fhp/fish...ts/trout04.pdf

There is also a series of maps accessible by clicking on the desired
region of the state map at:

http://dnr.wi.gov/org/water/fhp/fish...utsalmon.shtml

Both the written descriptions and the maps are scanned directly from
the published hard copy trout regulations which are available
throughout the state, free of charge, wherever fishing licenses are
sold. Of course, you can simply download the PDF files from the web
as well. With this information and a DeLorme atlas of Wisconsin, it
will be easy to find plenty of places to fish.

Tell Harry, "Good luck!" and he owes us a trip report. :)

Royce Dam mentions fishing the version I tied with floatant on the hair
wing, which would probably give it the same dead/dangling critter look-
might be worth a try in two and a half weeks.
