Flytyer

We wound up doing 2 draws for all the flies that were tied and dropped off for the draw.

Hope everyone enjoyed the show and it was great meeting board members that I didn't know. It's nice being able to put a face with user names from the board.

You mean a fins and golf ball cleanup on the river where all golf balls are saved till next years show and then drawn for and awarded to some lucky(?) or unlucky winner.

If the bobbin has a rod making background to it perhaps Don may have info on it.

Have fun with your treasure box.......kind of like being a kid at Christmas all over again isn't it

I would start with a boat dealer that deals with this sort of vessel to get an idea of original MRSRP is for the options it has; and ask several dealers for an estimate on the resale.....that should give you an idea of a starting point.

I send a buddy of mine in Germany a copy of the pic and see if he has any insight on this . He's an avid fly tying flyfishing history buff; he knowledge is vast.

Interesting, I've seen a lot of old stuff before but have never seen anything that looks like that.

???? Pics?

It will unravel with a Norvise as well if you don't at least use a half hitch before extending your thread to the bobbin holder /cradle.

Kyle you don't need to have that many bobbins, what you would need is extra spools that fit the bobbin. You can get them in packs of 3 or packs of 10. Also you don't have to have the auto bobbins for this vise, regular bobbins can be used but it's slower is all. The biggest advantage of the auto bobbin is the fact that the thread retracts its self which is a huge time saver.

You know where to find me Mike.

I use the hub off the large in line set for the fine point and that balances it just fine. I have talked with Norm on this issue and he believes the larger hub is the best option for trying to balance the system with the fine points.

That is a matter of preference....I use both for those sizes......I'll have all 4 heads there at the show and you can check the the small in line and fine point set for yourself. I'll also have both types of auto bobbins there as well; the norlander and the ekich

Have you tried one yet? Mine will be at the show if you want to try one first.

Post your hockey bashing for all teams other than the Flames or Oilers here.

Fly Fusion did send out discount cards to some people; I got one in the mail. Perhaps Chris could clarify on this more?

Yup that's the place I'm thinking of

peacock herl or ice dub wrapped in clear scud back gives a neat effect

Try the art place on 16 Ave across from Sait....they might have them.....not sure of the business name off hand

You can convert it with Nero......works well

No one else tried this one?

And one more

Here's a para loop with deer hair:
