Smitty Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 So Monger has kindly donated a set of childrens waders to my Flyfishing Club. If anyone is coming to Edmonton over the next few weeks, we'd appreciate the help! Cheers, Smitty P.S. And, if possible, I do have a personal request to make in terms of fly-tying materials, if anyone is inclined to pick some stuff up for me, seeing how Calgary fly shops have 10x the selection than Edmonton. Specifically, I am looking for purple, black, and blue UV polar chenille. Also, tippet rings would be cool. Do any of the fly-shops carry tippet rings.

I bought some tippet rings there last week. They are the only place in town I found tippet rings. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tungsten Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Whats a tippet ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Essentially, similar to a swivel but they are just a ring. Used quite a bit in European nymphing techniques; helps with adding droppers, and/or eliminating the need for a knot, allowing a dramatic tippet sizes that are significantly different in diameter. http://www.jsflyfishing.com/cgi-bin/item/LL-295020-0000 Anyways, ok, FishTales does shipping, cool. Now how about those waders? Anyone going to Edmonchuk? Smitty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murray Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Mike, I have two different trips north. Next Monday for two days and then on the long weekend. It will be difficult to get together next Monday or Tuesday because I'm in meetings all day. The long weekend would work best for me as we are seeing family. Do you still need any fly lines? I have an extra 6 wt. that I could donate. Murray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
