Gotta tell you, that fly absolutely SLAYED the smallmouth bass in a remote
river in Maine this summer. Pretty much every cast resulted in a sudden
explosive hit and a great tug-of-war with some poor fish. You can imagine
how my heart broke when I heard that telltale cracking sound on my backcast,
and saw the tippet bare on the front cast...

Frank...any chance of getting one or two more? I can send you something from
HK in exchange. :-)


Was that one I gave you or one of Frank Church's? I can post the
pattern for mine tonight.

Frank, I believe that was the one from last winter's swap. On my next
trip to Maine this month I will give it a try on a certain river to
remain un-named but it's initials are Androscoggin. :-)
