What are the advantages of bring the thread forward by wrapping the hackle forward, as opposed to wrapping the thread towards the eye, and then wrapping the hackle forward?

New forum

We did it! We exchanged our trusty old and lagging forum with a new and better one. Now, the forum isn't the busiest place on GFF, but this new software might do the trick and lure a few more people to share the fishing secrets with the rest of us.

Knots and copyright

Since we have been quite annoyed by the copying of site content from GFF lately, Martin decided to to talk about that in this podcast. But in order not to let down the listeners completely, he also talks about knots and a bit about fishing.
