Good Morning Bob;

Good Morning Bob;
I have a fly fishing workshop in Patagonia for many years and the amount of fly rods and I buy in USA.
Let me know if you can give me information because I want to make my rods and reels carriers need some direction where to buy bar nickel silver and wood inserts.
I have in my workshop tools to make it as a lathe.
Thanks for your time and I look forward to your prompt response,
Diego.

P.S. Searching the internet I found your address and I liked his work in the reel seat and a lover of natural wood'm also a fan of fishing with Bamboo.

mate you seem to hav

mate you seem to have some good fishing, luckey for me i have a river near by where we can catch pike , roach, chub ( a lot of big resident chub) on the fly, the biggest i had so far is a 5lb chub. Bro you take some amazing pictures, there not one picture here on your site that i dont like, they are truely amazing...keep up the good work....

It would be very hel

It would be very helpful if hook manufacturers were to further identify specific hooks with their dimensions of gap/length in mms.
For example Mustad 9671-6-6/18, or a 9672-6-6/20, the gap being 6mms, the body length 20mms.
The 2x or 3x long being somewhat redundant today with the wide variety of hooks available. And the odd habit of calling some hooks "wide gap". Surely a wider gap only really means a larger hook size on a smaller body length, such as 1x or 2x short.
Hooks can be confusing with such titles as long shank and short shank, how long is long, and how short is short?

hi..i just love your

hi..i just love your work..or should i say, your art. i would love to learn this amazing art of fishing fly tying.. So i appreciate the good work you're doind. thank's my friend. To bad i have no credit card...

Dale,

Most muddle

Dale,

Most muddlers are excellent sculpin imitations, and this one will be fine for your purpose. But you might also consider a more elongated and maybe weighted pattern such as the FMJNM, the Zuddler or a tube tied muddler or a pattern such as The Bow River Bugger. Another option is a large zonker streamer, which is a bit easier to tie.

Great articel! The opening paragraphs were especially appropriate as I have been standing in the middle of a large group of 'boiling' mullet this week without a single take!

You've certainly given me something to think about - thanks again!

these are great bait

these are great baits!

Jason,

Jason,

Do you mean how loose the knot can be tied or how long the tags can be - or something else?

To address the first two in one: the knot has to be pretty snug and tight. I usually work the loops of backing towards the loop in the fly line while tightening. When the knot is tight, you can trim both lines very close to the knot.

Or did you mean something else?

Martin

Yup, first timer, to

Yup, first timer, took a couple of goes, but very simple indeed. Just one question how much loose can there be at either on the ends - assuming backing to fly-line

Derek,

A chub is a freshwater fish found in Europe. It's known as Cyprinus cephalus or Leuciscus cephalus in Latin and is a popular quarry in many countries - especially in Eastern Europe. It's found in many streams, grows big (up to almost 2 feet!) and takes flies readily.

You can read more here on GFF as well as on FishBase.org
