Put as much backing on, as your reel will allow, and still enable you to get the fly line on. As far as I am concerned this would apply to any species, and any reel you may use. (fill the spool up)

As far as I'm concerned there was nothing wrong with the post you made and it was great to see the artistry of a young person being displayed. To answer your question, it is not the first time a thread has disappeared on this forum. Back in Sept. the thread What Are You Tying 2014 Edition disappeared with no credible reason given. A lot of excellent content by many members was lost. The thread has since been restarted. I would restart yours and see what happens.

Thanks Jeff

Pretty cool Rob

Thanks Jeff.

Thanks BigFoamy. I think you could tie this fly and probably have most of the material needed to do so, however I will give you a list of all the materials used on this one. Tag---fine silver tinsel, red floss ribbed Tail---Golden Pheasant Crest, peacock sword Butt---Peacock hurl Body---medium silver and medium gold oval tinsel separated with a Lady Amherst feather (from the head - beak area) and peacock hurl. Last third is floss ribbed with small oval and small flat silver tinsel with a space between each for hackle to follow. Hackle---red Throat---Peacock sword, natural guinea Wing---Guinea natural, Married Goose red, blue, black, and a topping of Golden Pheasant Crest Sides---Jungle Cock
