Hook: Mustad 94840 #14 Thread: Light Olive Tail: Pale green antron Middle section of body: Flourscent Pink Floss (middle 1/3) body- light olive ice dubbing. Dubbed lightly over hotspot Pacreseltoro up next

Oh and by the way I am not really a looker.... infact Glen makes me ride in the trunk till we get outta the city as he's afraid to be seen with me. But I promise I'll shave off the palm hair

Not a member as its a bit of a trip for me from Canmore although I have been thinking about it..... Is there a minimum amount of sessions you have to attend in a season? I just ask because its more then likely that if weather and schedule are bad I would miss quite a few. Also what night do you usually meet on? Always Wednesdays? Oh and Ladystrange if you get stuck for a date call me I will save you the social ackwardness of being dateless at the Ball..... And instead supplement it with the awkwardness of me stepping on your toes all night(read pray for no dancing)..... Let me know whether to press the white or the black Tux Zoot suits are still cool right? http://www.suavecito.com/Zoots.htm This would be me by the way http://www.suavecito.com/images/Suits/Pink_Zoot_Suit.jpg

LOL yeah those flys were winners fer sure...... I'm sure you'll come up with some more good ones when put on the spot Yeah and I gotta say DBT did a hell of a job last year. Its weird all winter I was lookin forward to the fishing and all summer I have been looking forward to the tying comps.......

don't worry wes I think I got bumped out the next round.... and if I remember you had a good tie and a bad pic. Anyhow it was a short lived victory. I actually wish we had pics of all the flies from those contests. Still got my october caddis pupa and my greendrake cripple

Just thought I bump the recipe up so maxwell might see Hook - Daiichi 1250 # 12 Thread - Red Tail- pheasant tail Dubbing - Black Peacock Icedub Body lateral lines - glow in the dark mylar motion creamy white (I can officially no longer tie this fly Thanks LS Wing Case - Partridge, tied 1/3 up the body and folded to the front. Maxwells adds the next material

No worries its likely a discussion best left alone. But are they (the contests) gonna be a go on here? If so that would be really cool. Ladystrange your tying would be just fine. I'm a major hack and I even did ok in a few rounds last winter. That and the voting is not necisarily all based on realism but also on functionality, simplicity, performance ect. Unless of course the theme is realism

Cool thanks for the info....... Somehow I don't see myself ever fishing the junction pool...... Its hard to justify a few months wages on a weeks fishing.

I usually just pop my laptop on the table and play through my whole library. Sometime while doing flies that need drying time I will watch a movie as currently I only usually have 3 jawed apparatus's to hold the flies while they dry.

yeah that was fun. We also did some simple 1 fly matches with themes like stonefly, caddis was one, midge was one I think, then we did a fish species everybody tied a fly and provided a reasoning as to why that fly was for said species. I remember I did pike with a prince of tides variation. I seem to remember the last 4 round one saw some stiff competition. especially between hydro, DBT..... and..... sorry I can't remember if there was a third person in the final round..... I am game anytime

Wow give me something tough like red thread to work with Hook - Daiichi 1250 # 12 Thread - Red Tail- pheasant tail edit it DUH pass it on to big bad brent

The last one scares me as well..... Cool post

This sounds cool. Who will tie the final product?

Awesome report...... I am itching to do it and its reports like that that make it itch more..... Even though the cast to fish ratio is pretty low its still got major appeal..... Great pics too by the way

LOL I can nary afford or justify the LAW but man thats a sweet looking piece of machinery. The nor on the other hand is in my price range and has mainly good reviews but also a frequent try before ya buy warning. The review I just read states that the automatic bobbin is basically a required addition. I will of course get one but I was curious as to why its a required addition?

Is it wrong that I want a norvise and a LAW....... I think I'm sick guys I really do......

LOL ok I understand pretty much I think. So even if everything that could go his way did go his way he would still not realistically be able to win..... Thats a shame LOL it may not be the right thing for the country but man would it ever be funny to see him running the show....

Looks like a unique fishing experience. Thanks for the pics.... So if someone from Canada wanted to fish there would it be possible? and if so what sorta costs would one be looking at. I only ask because the UK is often refered to as a difficult place to access fishing waters..... Though that may be more for flowing waters then still waters.

LMFAO..... I might have just found my new avatar

Hooker watching?! Being a little farm boy I can't say I've ever enjoyed that past time...... is it all its "cracked up" to be?

nice shots man. looks like a chilly day out there but a pretty nice setting by the looks of it. Do you get cell reception there do you know? Do to new work restrictions I have to be cell accessible for the next few weeks which massacres the idea of fishing most of my late fall haunts.

well I could definately say that talking about doing it being a gag but to actually do it. He must have some hopes of it actually working..... Maybe Rickr will explain the presidential process to me or someone else familiar with the system..... I do know that it basically comes down to 2 guys in the big vote but what is the process to weed out the others? And can a candidate actually make it through with only running in one state?

So did anyone here hear that Stephen Colbert of the Colbert report is running for president? I guess he is only running in North Carolina? I dunno how that works as I am not overly familiar with the system but does this mean he is running with no hope of winning the prez? Or is it possible? Is it all a complete joke, or just pretty much a joke? In any rate I find him pretty funny but I just don't know what the logistics behind this is..... Figured I'd bring it up as maybe some of you watch his show. http://tv.yahoo.com/the-colbert-report/sho...86e08e94b7e__ER

FlyTyer so you would say kungfools top pic is a straight eye even though its on a curved hook right?

Best bet is to just swear a bit a throw your bobbin at your vise go for a smoke and try again when you get back..... if you can find your bobbin..... if not just head for the closest liquor store. Works everytime..... well maybe I don't quite remember I still can't find most of those bobbins. BUT my beer bottle collection is HUGE But in all seriousness I think that fly came out pretty neat. If thats the first prototype then I think you are well on your way to a kickass fly.
