GREAT!! A BIG MONST

GREAT!! A BIG MONSTRUOSITY AS LIKED BY BIG MONSTER FISH...Fly Fishing Mosqueo Tropical in Facebook is proud of you! Good luck with your next creations too!

Going throught the same thing right now with mine. Trying to nurse them through just one more season with Shoe Goo and sewn together in spots with fly line backing. And the felt soles are hard and slippery. Any ideas on how to soften them back up?

Hi
I put this on a copper tube, used materials that I had available and ended up with a great small mouth bass fly.
Little ones cann't handle it so it works swell for bigger bass in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Thanks for the pattern

Hello Adam,
It was a sheer joy to find your website "troutmen" and low and behold their is our tu stream we love to protect the Conewago Creek in Gettysburg Penna our "secret hideaway". You found it and enjoyed this stream as much as President Carter did when he fished it. I was proud to see this video as stream coordinator for over a decade, thanks.

That looks like one piece of tool!

So combined with your LAW you should have vice supplies for about three lifetimes!

A wonderful story, friend.

I might tie up a few Red Spinners and give them a drift or two along a stream I love.

I have 5 new tubes

I have 5 new tubes + 1 that is in use of Overton's that I got back in 1997 (not selling BTW, my nephews are learning to tie and it will go to them when I am no longer able to). Long story short is that I was in the right place at the right time when a shop was reorganizing some older inventory. I got the whole lot for less than $10. There has been nothing that even comes close to this stuff (at least not the stuff that is commercially available). The smell of a new tube of Overton's has a slightly pine resin smell to it. Not at all overpowering but enough so that there is no doubt that at least one of the ingredients has some pine derivative. Prior to scoring the Overton's I tried the toilet bowl rings melted down and that was not even close. It made a mess. My wife was not happy. This recipe looks very promising even though I have a couple lifetimes worth of wax. In a thread a read a while back someone mentioned castor oil as one of the parts to Overton's. I am surprised that no one has tried to crack Overton's recipe by mass spec or GC.

Cool! I'll be there

Cool! I'll be there next week! can't wait
Thanks for the article

I've started tying these "baby buggers" with rockchuck tail fur for the tails, makes for some interesting looking patterns, and the fish love them.

I Just went Fishing

I Just went Fishing in the river Kyll (Kyllburg Germany) and experianced that fish would only rise on Yellow tied CDC flies. I only had a Yellow thread and brown CDC and tied me a few sedges with that material, that resulted in lots of takes of little trout and little chub. I just bought this book, hope it 'll help me next time....

Can i buy these anyw

Can i buy these anywhere online??? i do not tie my own flies, and would like to purchase some of these
