The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF forum is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads and reply to old ones. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Personally, i like to tie my streamers using epoxy.
Nearly all the critters i tied in the last few years turned yellow in the epoxy-coating some day.
I tried a lot different brands ... some had this effect a bit earlier, some a time later. But all turned yellowish some time.
Some years ago i went to some flyfairs occasionally. Several times i was delighted to view Ruben Greonendijk, and mostly he was tying saltwater flies using epoxy.
Those flies which i purchase right from his tying desk remained clear until today ... and sadly i don't remeber the brand of epoxy he utilized.
So my question for help is, if anybody knows a brand of epoxy which doesn't turn yellow some day, i would be delighted if he could help me with a hint.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this. See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.
