bulltrout Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 well, this is it boys and girls...the last poll you have to see until the fall...it's been an awesome year and i want to thank everyone who has voted, participated, and contributed comments throughout the course of the winter...now we get to focus on the fishing of these patterns...so without further ado, the final round of the 2008 King Of The Vise...voting for this round should be based on the requirements set forth : use of the two materials (which both did), realism (which both did), and creativity (which both did)...so have fun trying to choose a winner between these two...

reevesr1 Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 what I want to know is what is the penalty for catching live bugs and sticking hooks in them? Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishfreak Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Umm, I think they're both cheating here. This is supposed to be flyTYING, not stick-a-bug-on-a-hook-and-coat-it-with-lacquer. Very nice ties for sure. It's a very tough choice here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydropsyche Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I've read that to be called a fly, you have to be able to tie a line to it. I can't see an eye on that hopper. Luckily, the same article said an attennae can be considered a place you can tie a line to. You'd loose it on the first cast, but it would be a fly. Nice flies, Guys.

admin Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I've read that to be called a fly, you have to be able to tie a line to it. It's there, it's just well disguised as a nose type thing. Stellar job on the flies peps. It was a hard choice to choose one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
