Hi All,

Tying up a batch of small wulffs for a trip.

1) Do you guys rib them? They look better in my eye with some fine gold
wire or crystal flash, though this is not apparent on any pattern or
references.

2) Do you use deer or elk? Can you articulate what makes good hair?

3) When you tie in the wing is it about 1/2 way up the shank?

4) How long do you make the tails?

I ask 3 and 4 because I have had some problems with Wullf's riding on
their noses though they look fine.

Thanks very much,

TBone

What an idiotic post! What d'ya think this is a fly fishing forum or
sumptin. If you can't post something about Bush destroying the
universe, Rush Limbaugh taking Viagra, and if you are unwilling to
take out your dick and see how far you can ****, then you shouldn't be
here. Other than that, it's good to see you post again. d;o)


LOL - yeah I was actually a little afraid of posting someting on topic.
Do you ever tie Wulff's? Small sizes, they're great in the west.

OBROFF: Using very small sections of strike on indicator (about 1/4"
square), about 1 foot apart on a leader is a great way to keep the
'attitude' of a nymphed line in perspective while detecting movement
without really floating the fly.
