With the current mov
With the current move to off shore manufacture of product reels are no exception. I have found a manufacturer in china whom appears to give exceptional value for conventional reels, most are less that $100 US with freight. They are simple fool proof designs proven by major manufactureres world wide.
Look at www.shinyico.cn the web sute for Weihai Shinyi Fishing Tackle.
My last reel cost $50.50 inc P&P and I regard it as a real bargin.

Ron,
The fly is a Blood Nosed Frede, and it's basically the same as The Grey Fred with the added benefit of a red front hackle or -- as here -- red dubbing over the eyes in stead of the grey marabou used for the regular pattern. Sometimes the marabou body dubbing is also mixed with or replaced with something brighter like synthetic Ice Dubbing.

I like to tweak... and came up with a few what if's...
Jay set me up with a second shaft that sported a custom tilt-able "knuckle head"
that allows for a variable angle of attack...
the standard fuselage is attached to that...
add the jawz or tube fly conversion and away ya' go... NICE!
the classic "J" removed...

the tube fly conversion... TUBULAR! EASY!...

being able to tilt the head worksforme... I find the variable angle of attack to be more comfortable...

Jay is an engineer and an artist... His work speaks for itself!

'another "option"... the pedestal/desk stand attached to a curious wooden base
of my own choosing...
there are some interesting and affordable cutting boards out there on the cheap...
the stand will accept any standard vertical shaft without complaint...
I LIKE IT... A BUNCH !

I mentioned the DUNCAN LOOP to connect the knoted leader to the fly line, thats WRONG we are using the PERFECTION LOOP because of its reliability and simplisity! !
Sorry for the misshap...

What a great story.
What a great story. Brought back many memories of my Grandfather and I fishing for native rainbows on the stream that meandered along the property when I was a child.
The Brown Spinner looks like it would be very effective here, and so I see some tying for my weekend. Though my Grandfather has been gone for many years now, I think he'll be trying them out with me.
Hey Calros, great pa
Hey Calros, great pattern, just waiting for Dicember to go to Colombia and give it a try, thanks for sharing..

Hickam pretty unsuccesful
I've been fly fishing the flats at Hickam pretty unsuccesfully here for about six months. I see lots of fish, but just don't have what they want I guess. Im new to fly fishing in general so Im probably doing something wrong. If any other newbies want to get together on a weekend to go fish the flats on O'ahu, let me know. I'd love to have someone to fumble through this with.

Playin' around with some acrylic and Farrar Blend...

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your article
Hi Martin. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your article, and managed to get a good few valuble tips, thanks! Especially about the flies!
Im heading over to Braurap with my uncle next mont for a long weekend of hopefully fantastic fishing, it is a bit late in the season i believe but the early mornings and evenings should be productive.
Thanks for great read!
Guys, Kern spent
Guys,
Kern spent some hours on the net and found out what he had on his fly tying desk. It is a rubber band used for making trinkets.
It is called Crystal tec and can be bought in kilometers here (or just 100 meters!) (the site is in Danish!).
The one used on Kern's Perfect Leo Shrimp is 0.5 mm.
