the name. I sure can. ;-)

So can I. That nasty piece of crap in the 2nd row of the first
column. Who'd try to pass that off as a fly?

I'm just surprised they were able to get a picture of that thing
before the vise tipped over from the weight.

Ok you guys, I bet that fly would catch trout. It isn't bad at all.

I'm just yankin' Frank's chain, Ernie. I witnessed the birth of that fly
at Penns 2002. Tom Littleton told Frank to put LOTS of weight on a stone
fly to get it down quickly in the fast, muddy water of The Penns. Frank
being, well, Frank, put at least three layered wraps of lead down the
whole body of the fly. We've been joking ever since that the fly would
probably knock the trout unconscious rather than hook 'em.
