  6. This fly is called the "Yuletide" tied a few last year, got the pattern out of Fly Tyer.
  7. these are the type of flies i would like to learn to tie. Besides the peacock I can't tell what you have on this thing. Would it be possible for you to send me a doable pattern and the list of materials to tie it. Im sure I would have to go buy all the material, I just dont know what they are. Tinsels, feathers etc.

  15. The Smalls are making a comeback eh! Saw them a few times waaaaay back in the day, guessing early to mid 90's lol. I think they played an outdoor show here as well this summer. GWAR and C.O.C. are playing here in a couple weeks

  20. What a beauty!

  22. Fishing the Bow is super easy man, anyone can catch fish in the Bow river. Are you a golfer? (saw your golf reference)anyone can catch fish, not everyone can play golf, just saying! Im golfer that loves to flyfish lol!!! I'll go out with you sometime man. Im not awesome but I do catch a lot of fish. Anytime your going just post it or shoot me a PM. Your best bet right now is to fish nymphs, 2 or 3 of them, try a San Juan Worm with a small evil weevil, copper john, pt, hares ear, boatman etc. by small i mean, size 14 or 16, imo 12's are to big, I never fish a size 12 but fill your boots if thats your preference. I know the snowfall put the Hoppers dawn but fishing a hopper dropper rig also works this time of year. I had a vicious take on a big Foamy the other night plus one on the dropper (the gooly) these are all 14's but was using a 16 at the time. I always use this as my bottom fly as well. If you look at the boatman in the bow they're tiny, def not a size 12.
  23. Hey man, Its red holo tinsel (can't see the sparkle in the pic), olive SuperFine Dubbing. The gills are white Antron (they go on first, then the bead) its tricky, gotta keep it skinny enough to slip the bead over it. I also use mottled turkey thin skin and or PT fibres, or holo tinsel for the wing case. I find this pattern gets the best results using a yellow or pale yellow SuperFine Dubbing. I tie them in 14 & 16. Had one of these broke off tonight! hooked four fish but only managed to land one, 18" Rainbow.
