And in fact, simply tying any ol' fly upside down can take a decent recipe and **** it up. If you choose to strictly follow other people's paterns and never try to push your own creative fly tying ability, that's your loss. the fly that i tie works just fine (reverse adams), as do many others that i tie based on variations of other well known flies. If you chose to use other people's designs thats fine, but don't discourage the adventurous tier from attempting their own variations, by saying that their "****ing up a decent recipe". not only is this ignorant, but without new fly variations, we wouldn't have any fly patterns to begin with. jules, see you on the water. |
