All of the recipes that I have in my possession are now on the site.

I would appreciate receiving more recipes, histories, tying
instructions, interesting stories about the fly, or any other
pertinent thing you might wish to add to your fly's page.

I'll start boxing and labeling tonight, they should be out by the
beginning of the week.

Thanks swappers, for all of your good work.

Way cool, Petah - well done. That's a nice collection of flies.

BTW, who's the guy in the Old Man sweater? :)

Good job Peter,

Nice collection of flies

I've seen Danl have some great success with that "plain Jane"
streamer of his. I've seen it often enough to tell me that fly has
something special. Sort of like a Hare's Ear nymph - nothing fancy but a
great fly.


(I'm sure the other flies are great too, but I haven't seen them in action.)

Nice job, Petah! Thanks for doing the swapmeister duties.

I do like that little brown streamer pattern. A guide working in a fly shop
in Mammoth Lakes sold me three of them a few years ago after I told him that
I intended to go to particular Sierra lake the next day. He "guaranteed"
that I would catch a bunch of good sized fish with it if I fished the inlets
of the lake with that fly. For once, the supposed "magic fly" actually
delivered as promised. I had the most productive day of trout fishing that I
have ever had. Since then, I have tried in in a bunch of locales and have
been at least fairly successful in most. I like to try it when there's
nothing happening on top and nymphing hasn't been fruitful, or when there's
a deep pool that needs a dredging fly pulled through it. Willi's right. Its
not fancy, but it seems to work.

Sometimes the most simple of things is the best thing.

I guess that's why someone came up with "K.I.S.S."

When using tube flies take along a bobbin threader to assist in getting
tippet thru the tube. Also, the best knot I have found for the hook is the
Palomar Knot, it gives it a bit bulk and the hook holds better in the
keeper. Also, I have found, with experience, that less is more on the
dressing. At first, I tied them with LOTS of stuff. I go a bit sparse and
I have seen better results (easier to cast as well). Oh yeah, fish the fly
with the hook up and reduce hangups.

PS I caught and released 16 shad today (I had suprisingly few long distance
releases today, I credit the offset octopus hook) using this tube fly
pattern tied with red over white wings on an 8 weight and a fast sinking tip
line. One guy, near me, caught about the same maybe a few more on spinning
gear; so I felt pretty good. He tried to get me to give him my Shad instead
of releasing them. "Them damn good Sturgeon bait!"

It looks like it should be a good stillwater pattern as well.

Thanks evryone, for all of the contributions ... and keep those
recipes coming.

Probably not, but I bet it's contents did have an effect on his head.

Just one look at that grin and one has to wonder how many of those bottles
are laying empty on the floor, unseen in the photo.
