Notes: The Dick's Special was one of the patterns Jim had submitted to be published in Trolling Flies for Trout and Salmon. This pattern as well as the Winnipesaukee Queen were created by Dick Fozie of Alton Bay. Jim discovered the patterns listed in a New Hampshire Profile Magazine in the early 1960's and tied the pattern commercially for a time.

Long story longer

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.
