Default Thanks for the Flies

Dave M! The flies are beautiful. Small midge pupae, cool leeches, and
perfect parachute adams in the tiny sizes. Lots of the really small
midge patterns that we use around here originated in Colorado and your
flies are great. Hopefully they'll make it to the next San Juan Clave.
Thank You. bruce h
The parachute adams don't stand a chance!


Hi B,
Heh . ..heh . ..I was only a month late.
I spect' they will catch a few fish.
One thing I suggest. I did the Parachute Adams late at night while watching
TV. When using calf body hair I head cement the base of the parachute
wing. I can't remember doing that for these flies. It seems important
when I use calf body hair because it seems a bit slippery for the parachute
patterns. . . kinda my reason for going to synthetics more. Cement them
before you use them. Have fun.
Best Wishes,
