Did you ever get my mailing?


Apologies Myron, I thought I had sent you a note thanking you for
them. Some of the samples you sent have been used to collect trout in
the Smokys and in the Hiwassee River near Reliance TN. I should note
that one of them also attracted a snake, I never knew a snake taking a
fly would make the same rise form as a trout sipping spinners on the
surface.


No apologies necessary, as it was I who was releveling the field.

Glad those Caddises worked for you....as I said, they are a rarity on
this side of the pond and I treat mine with love. If I get some better
ties from my Scandahoovian contacts (well-known around here), I'll
send you a better version.

Meanwhile, I think fishing with a snake is considered 'bait casting'
and is somewhat frowned upon..
