Just tied a bunch of Damsels and Chironomids with a new material to the USA.
It's called Liquid Lace. THis is NOT to be compared with Larva Lace. This product is injected with baby oil ,It stretches more than 2 1/2 times it's size. It ties the most realistic looking flies when a colored underbody is used and colored with a felt tip marker. This is totally awesome stuff. You can contact Ed Smith himself at: Unique Fly Fishing Products 1244-12th St. Kamloops, B.C. V2B 3C7 Phone 250-376-6641 If you can't find it at your local feather Merchant tell him to order it for you. You WON'T be sorry.This stuff makes really good looking segmented bodies. Awesome TDC's or any flies where you would use a V-rib product. Randy |

I have seen flies tied using the Liquid Lace material. I saw a short demonstration at the Calgary fly-tying expo a year ago. They do look pretty good, and quite lifelike. I think they would be good imitations of phantom midges. However, having to use syringes and needles around to inject the oil into the material seems to be taking things a little far, but that's just my opinion. Tim Lysyk |

Injected with Baby oil, snake oil or anything else makes the fly ineligible
for IGFA record status, if that is of interest: http://igfa.org/rulebook/page2.html F. LURES The lure must be a recognized type of artificial fly, which includes streamer, bucktail, tube fly, wet fly, dry fly, nymph, popper and bug. The use of any other type of lure or natural or preserved bait, either singularly or attached to the fly, is expressly prohibited. Only a single fly is allowed. Dropper flies are prohibited. The fact that a lure can be cast with a fly rod is not evidence in itself that it fits the definition of a fly. The use of any lure designed to entangle or foul-hook a fish is prohibited. No scent, either natural or artificial is allowed on flies. The use of scented material in a fly is prohibited. Good luck anyway! John "Tim Lysyk" wrote in message news2bfc.4269$aD.4047@edtnps89...
