I went to policemans today and it was BUSY!!!!! there were 15 or so others there and not many were catching fish. I threw streamers on a sinking line all day and nothing but i talked to a guy who was using sanjuans and he got a whitefish and a brown. not as much ice as friday or yesterday but watch the ice shelves theyre deteriorating fast and visibility was about 2-3ft.

Zachs rusty stone dubbing: Rusty brown dubbing bead: Black 1/8" bead weight: 20 turns .10 lead wire legs: Brown d rib knotted rib: Vinyl rib orange brown tail: Ginger goose biots back: Dark brown foam (this doesnt make the fly float due to lead and bead) head cement: Hard as hull hook: Dia-riki #700 size 6 streamer hook 1x strong 4x long

Thats what i thought i have three size 16 tied it is a great lookin pattern. Thanks for sharin.

what sizes do you usually tie them in?

great lookin flies ill have to give those a shot.

and the rest.

here are the damsel flies, nothin fancy but theyll work.

did that help at all?

I don't have a link but go to the website for renzetti then they are under miscilanious

They will be up by about 5 because right now I'm sitting in school then I'm going to pick up tying supplies.

Renzetti's extended body tools make ( in my opinion) the best extended bodies I've seen. Has anyone else used these tools or made extended bodies some other way? I will post photos of some damsel flies that I tied using these tools.

Everyone has great flies makes me want to be tying.

Nice 3 wt bull must have been one hell of a fight.

Do you buy your eyes in bulk?

Thanks for the advice and I'm using Czech nymph hooks that I ordered from siman fly shop in cz.

Thanks 126barnes I will definetly try that, have you ever tied nymphs using jig hooks?

It's a great idea. I have a buddy who uses the mono loop for dropping nymphs or other small dries and now that's how he ties all of his hoppers and stones. I have a batch of stones tied like that ready for a test drive, but for right now we have to wait.

Does anyone have any good Czech nymph patterns they would like to share? I've looked on google but they are all very similar.
