    Green Chorominoids.?

    Absolutely, tie some up! At times a small olive is up there on the list for me. All shades of green - including lime green. Gotta have 'em. Plus the Bleeding Limey is just a cool name. :giggle: https://flyguys.net/fly-patterns/chironomids/bleeding-limey-chironomid-pupa

    Damn, Fly Fisher Lacey was my shop too. :cry: I enjoyed every interaction with Bjorn and bought my last Echo from him. He did alot of custom fly tying for fishing all over the planet and I hope that he maintains that as his gig. Will miss the shop and him. I maintain that Bjorn Beech is...

    SFR Vevor Chamber Vac Experience

    Anyone have experience with Anova vac sealers? These look like a good alternative to F Savers. I was going thru a food sealer brand unit per year ish and got tired of throwing them out and replacing them. Much smaller counter top unit, not in the chamber vac realm...

    NFR Any actual good online "black friday" or "cyber monday" deals you found?

    Les Johnson's Fly-Fishing Coastal Cutthroat Trout

    I guess that I should start a Les thread but I will add this here. I was fortunate to get to know Les from the Swallows Nest in Seattle back in the 90s. We hit it off and fished together some. He took me to Lenice and the pot holes just to poke around. I commented that it was a long way to...
