  1. sure can.......

    hook = #2 2xl streamer hook

    tail = 2 brown hackles and a few strands of pearl flash

    undrbody = deer hair trimmed flat top and bottom

    back = craft foam

    head = spun deer hair

    eyes = med craft eyes

    First start with the tail. Tie in hackle and flash. Next tie in foam back. Tie in bunches of deer hair along the sides of the hook shank. Continue to about 4 eyes back of the eye. Trim top and bottom flat. Pull up foam over back and tie off. Now make the head by spinning deer hair and shape. Glue on the eyes with a drop of epoxy and ur done. I usualy add a drop of glue to eack bunch of deer hair on the sides for strength. Hope that makes sense. I was bored one night and wanted to make a diff lookin mouse and that is what i came up with.

  2. Holy flippin stoneflies! Ive never seen so many as last night! I made the mistake of sitting in the grass for a min after dark . I got up and started fishing and they were all over me....on my waders ...on my hands even crawled up under my hoodie. Pretty freaky for sure Coulodnt get away from them. Then i turned the light on towards shore and there were hundreds and hundreds of them. Was flickin them off me for over an hour. Swingin hoppers was sweet. lots of takes which is even better when the lights go out and u cant even see them...just feel a couple taps or hear a take. Awesome awesome awesome

  3. losta new flybox full of hoppers and terrestrials dries etc ant the gravel pit area probablt at the bottom of the tailout.........probably over 100 worth in there. Any one find it just pm me....thankz

  4. My demon took like almost 2 months. Had to send i t to bill tucker in bc...he then sent the rod to england and my tip was replaced for a fee of 125 bones. Only got new tip section. And now...he no longer does the warrantees so u have to go directly to the compmany urself! Sweet rod though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. I have a hardy demon 9'6" #6 and i love it. However it is in england right now getting a new tip section. Full warrante i think except for shipping. Throws big flies and little dries just as good. I over lined it to a #7 line (that was max's idea....thanks)which helped get those nymph rigs up and out for 30-40'+ roll casts which is a must on teh bow.Still savin up for the angel someday. been using my loop 5 weight which is a great rod but still miss me demon!
