What would be the process for making the woven abdomen or can you buy this pre-made. Also wanting to know of a Canadian website that might sell this fly.
Rafters annoy me more than drift boats. Sreaming, yelling, and splashing through the run that you are fishing. I don't even fish the city section during the summer months.
I read on here that someone has modified the palomar knot for adding nymphs to your san juan worm. I use the palomar knot on my worm (as the point fly) all the time.
Stimulators, elk hair caddis, bwo, pmd, parachute, chernobyl ant, grasshopper. Various colours and styles of each. After you use a variety you will probablely pick your favourites as have I.
I too researched those fish quite a bit when I first heard about them, any fish that size that will hit a dryfly is awesome. I believe they are a salmonid. I would give my left nut to go on a trip for those big bastards.
