Frank, did you receive my separate mailing of the return postage?

I have been on a fly tyin' binge of late. I am tying a fly that I think
will catch mucho trout.

Pattern:
#16 dry fly hook
#8 tan nylon thread
tail--muskrat guard hairs (two longish) or two moose body hairs
body--turkey biot (tied so a ribbin' surfaces)
wing case--wood duck flank feathers
hackles--light gray dun and grizzly size 16 or what ever I have, in size 16,
when the grizzly runs out

I hope to tie up a decent assortment of dry flies to send to someone I had
promised I would--a LONG time ago!

Op --preparin' for the great Polar Plunge of 2006, by makin' up music CDs
to play while beggin' money on the Sanford Mall, on campus, in my pink
inflatable tu-tu, with faux gold lamay trim. I'm up to about 300 buck, so
far, but far short of my goal of a thousand bucks :~^( Oh well, I start
earlier next year.

Let me know if it doesn't arrive soon, and I will send again!

Thanks,

23 #16 para Adams are on their way to you Frank. Any extras from
folks dropping out at the last minute (Hi, Myron) are yours to keep.


Chuck Vance (assuming you have a use for a #16 para Adams :-)

....Thanks for the heads-up Chuck, I may not have any use for those Adams
but I bet my local bluegills might. :-)

Hi Frank. Message got through, loud and clear. I gotta take offense at that
'last minute' thing, though.

That was me. It was meant as just a gentle jab.


Chuck Vance (guess I should have included a smiley)
