  1. Its called expensive and i shouldnt have buggered it up. Peacock pheasant in the wing. 3 eyes per side. (crazy) Indian crow sub on the back with golden pheasant blue chatterer subs on cheek, behind that is indian crow sub Jungle cock eye. Alberta pheasant and guinea fowl in the throat. I should have been more patient. I'll try another soon.
  2. Let me take out a life insurance policy on u then go nuts.
  3. I have a box for em. When can i pick em up.
  4. Nah you ditched us to, and I quote "go shopping for fabric to make pyjamas". So you're out.
  5. Hell i just learned i can fly fish at -15 degrees. Its all good.
  6. Where do you find this stuff?
  7. Dude you lost one of my prized stoneflies on a ROCK.
  8. Sure strange lady. I'd tie at boob height if I could get off the couch and move my fly tying stuff. I have 2 empty rooms with 0 desire to set up a fly tying station. I have my coffee table, kit, vise, fireplace, scotch and HDTV. Why would i move? Sore back tying or sore back movin stuff.
  9. i gotta stop tying hunched over at the coffee table.
  10. Did i miss something?
  11. when you forget to polish floss on a fancy fly u arent very smart.
  12. If you wanna see ball dropping like a puppy factory look at Ottawa droppin 7 in a row.
  13. I get distracted by shiny things.
  14. Spence is such an UBER nerd.
  15. Haven't tied one of these in a while. Crappy floss work. I'll try another.
  16. We should have some at the fly fishing show in January for you guys to check out. I believe we'll be setting up some online ordering on the main page as well.
  17. Do you ever tie pot belly pigs? If so would you mind doing a step by step. I love those. This shrimp is awesome by the way.
  18. Ok now that we have a logo almost ironed out we need to get a feel for how much we need to order. I will have a better idea of prices soon. We'll have Hats T-shirts Hoodies Toques (I want one bad) What size and how many do you want?
  19. I snapped the orginal tying streamers. This one is out of an electrical switch box.
  20. Oops i have no brain left.
  21. Here u go. Resurrected http://flyfishcalgary.com/board/index.php?...amp;#entry27004
  22. Tie in another set of legs. Dub it again and put the next section of wing case on. Cut a piece of bead chain. Use tweezers to help you tie it on the hook. Tie it on like dumbell clouser eyes in a crisscross pattern. Dub it again, put some more legs on it. I leave the ends of the last legs long and use them for antenna. Tie on the next section of wing case. Whip finish and use some head cement. I use these markers to color it. This way after its been in the water and you havent lost it you can recolor it. Or use black to make a black stone. Heres the final product. Hope to see some of you try it.
  23. Once nymph skin is tied in, wrap it evenly forward in a nice segmented body. Place a bunch of dubbing at this point in a nice area to tie the legs on and mount the wing case. I have 3 wing burners to simulate the wing case size. You can also just trim out the wing case pieces. Whichever u want. Place the webwing in the burner and burn it up. You are left with a nice shape. I colored this piece brown with a brown marker. Tie in the wing case segment. Once done wrap some more dubbing around it. For the legs I soak the quill body in water (or use your spit and run it down the quill) This will soften it for you to tie it in a knot. Tie in the back legs. Dub again.
  24. Wrap the thread over the shank to make sure the lead wont slide off Tie lead down both sides of the hook shank. Make sure it stays on the sides ( practice makes perfect) Use pliers to flatten it if it wants to round. Take a feather, i use any saddle hackle in natural color and strip all the barbs off (just grab and pull them off) Do this to 8. Tie two of them in the back for the tail on the sides of the hook. Wrap over the thick ends and trim off. Cut off some nymph skin and trim off a corner to make a point. This is where you tie it in to make wrapping it forward easier and not create bulk.
