Hi Danl,

Hi yourself, Guy.

Like the concept and will try the tactic rather than weighting my nymphs
when tying the next batch of GRHEs.

Let us know how it works for you.


On another note. The Kern Emerger shown on your link looked like a "cool"
fly to tie. I did so at Bass Pro yesterday during
their "vendor show" while representing the Dallas Fly Fishers. We also
did an impromptu casting clinic where I hope I did not pass on too many
bad casting habits. But, tying the KE was a success with the crowd who
liked the colorful nature of the fly and the kids kept hanging around for
their turn to take one home.

Good on ya for entertaining the little boogers. Though KE's are usually
tied with a bright or contrasting color, I've tried them with more
"normal" wingcase-type colors (browns and tans). I'm not sure which works
better.


Where you fishing this year? We need to we a line together somewhere.

Danl
It would be great to wet a line. Can't make Montana this year. Will plan on
the San Juan in December if it works for the group. Will make my yearly
pilgrimage to the Deschutes this summer. A thought for a Clave would be on
the White & North Fork in N. Arkansas. Biggest problem is hydro-generation,
but there are a lot of fish and big ones to be had. If anything else comes
up (maybe Colorado) I will definitely get in touch. Do the same.

Thanks,
Guy
