Well, claves *can* be fun in spite of them. g

I used to make yellowjacket flies by painting yellow stripes on black
McMurray ants and fish with them in Shenandoah. Very effective on the
brookies there.

The bees are OK if you can tolerate the buzzing, but when I fish with
rodents they spend most of their time trying to tear into my lunch. I
recommend fishing with people, or alone, if thats your bag.

I find they seldom catch more fish that I do. To tell the truth, one of my
favorite brim wet flies is the McGinty which is just a wet fly version of a
bee. Some also spin deer hair to make floating versions of a bee and they work
great, but brim destroy them in nothing flat. wasp patterns also work very
good. When I go to conclaves I like to watch someone spin deer hair to make a
mouse, but it generaly takes them about an hour and a half to tie one of them.
I won't spend that long tying any fly.

I wish I knew how I'm going to pay off the student loans since I lost
