That cdc caddis has turned into one of my favorite fly patterns. Easy to tie up, and floats great.

Sz 16 mayfly.

Messing round with split nanosilk dubbing loops instead of regular loops. It worked.

Size 16 mayfly. Cdc, cdl and quill

Thank you all for the replies. I think some good points were brought up. I like Tom's suggestion of putting different colors to a test. I've often wondered my purple is by far my most successful mayfly color (such as purple haze). I have guessed so far a darker color might create more of a...

Besides aestetics obviously, really is thread color that important? Like many, I probably have a hundred spools, but I find myself struggling to take the time to change colors out fly to fly. Especially as I try to fish only my flies, so I am tying more than ever. If I got yellow thread on, a...

I sell hardwood lumber for work. On a commercial level, it's a real problem. In my lifetime (I'm 38) ash will most likely become and extinct specie on a wholesale level (traincars and truckloads). Similar to American chestnut, due to blight in the past/present. A true northern ash lumber is...

Poopity doopity. Governments always right. There ya'll go, fixed it. Points were unrelated, I'll concede that.

"Mini" is relative. Eh? Or you can go Damascus version of giant goat and have a face not even a mother could love. Ps- some menudo or posole sounds good.

I haven't finished it yet. But wanted to thank you and say I've really enjoyed what I have read so far.

"Watch duty" app is a life saver if you have a fire close, or are just interested, highly recommended (with notifications on if in dry area). Shows locations, ample and quick updates, ect.

After the last couple years, I'm starting to hate deep summer as much as winter. Couldn't leave my house without another fire inching close to my property. Basically lost a month of planned fishing, family visits and outings due to fire danger (very) close to home. Feel this year will be more...

Have you floated a river before? (Reread, no is the answer lol) I remember my first time, it was game over. I spent a year researching my new calling in life, and now countless of thousands of happily spent dollars, and it's all I think about now lol. If you are newer to fly fishing, I like to...

Very cool. Making me get (more) impatient for going to Costa rica next month. Keep the pics coming. Love travel stuff.

If you look real close, top of head, by mouth piece there is a flying saucer also. Above the bug God lol. But not as definite. Alien bug lol

Seriously cool bug. If you zoom in: The lower two plates, it seems like a lions face or predator (movie) face. There are two Easter island heads on the second plate, with maybe some moles or something besides them. Head plate has some bug God face on it. Eyes, nose and antenna's Guessing...

Fly shop talked me into going with peak and saving money over the renzetti I was asking about. Glad they did, 100% happy with it

Is that dyed pheasant? What's that merlot color?

Planting plans are made. Limiting garden to stuff we normally use, instead of a random assortment of experiments. Onions, potatoes, carrots, corn, zuchinni, pumkin, (less) tomatoes, buttercup squash (not butternut. Buttercup are my favorite). Our one experiment will be watermelons...
