Did you find the above interesting?
People who looked at the above also looked at these pages: Streamers Section: everything about NE streamers - and more Czech nymphs Does anyone remember the early to mid 90's? The rage in the US, at least among tyers of trout flies, was Polish woven nymphs. Fast forward to the dawn of the new century and these articles and flies have all but disappeared? Were they a fad? What happened?
A few random articles for your entertainment Tube Style Plate All kinds of tubes in an overview. Want to get an idea of the richness in the tube fly world? This is one place to look. August 16th 2007 Carinthian Gold Does one of the best spots for fishing for graylings with a colour �like gold�, good water conditions most of the spring, summer and autumn, still undiscovered by cormorants and yet unknown to the cosmopolitan fly fishing scene sound interesting? June 22nd 2007 Bamboo Part 7 Follow along as Harry Boyd takes us through the process of trimming the bamboo blank to the proper length, preparing and mounting your ferrules, and adjusting the fit of the ferrules. Many thanks to Harry for this well received series of articles. August 23rd 2004 Mart�s Bibio A nice thing about this Bibio is that it's versatile. Play with it, use lighter of heavier hooks, fish it with or without floatant, wrap a thinner or denser hackle, and so on. But make sure you have some Bibios in your flybox spring suddenly is here.
