lumpy Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Kispiox Special. This year I want to swing old school patterns for steelhead on a single hand rod. Just wish I could find some old school down-eye hooks some of these would have been tied on. Mustad 3666 Mustad 80500BL to name only two. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumpy Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Got these in the mail last night. A gift from Art Lindgren. These hook were in production between the 20's to the mid 60's are they are the same hooks Rodrick Haig-Brown, Bill Nation, General Noel Money, and Tommy Brayshaw would have been using for some of their steelhead flies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Wow Gary its sure been a pleasure watching you progress from small winged wets to these magnificent salmon flies. I've been tying for quite awhile and i still just tie what I need when I need it Wouldn't mind buying a few of your ties just to mount on some driftwood and put it on my tying desk for inspiration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggp Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Thanks GrnDrake, since I started learning to tie these flies it's been a labour of love. They have definitely renewed the joy of tying for me. As far as selling some, I'm not sure I'm there yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your toppings which I have found to be often the hardest part are well nigh perfect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
