ALAN WHERE DO YOU GET THE HACKLE FOR THE WINGS ON YOUR STREAMERS THEY REALLY LOOK GREAT

Hi all, has anyone of you experience with the chinese silk chickens. All their feathers look like those of an Austrich. just smaller.
This race exist as a medium and midget size. I am just thinking of keeping white and brown one in my garden plus a large brown one of a large race. By the way - in every village there is a club for poultry keepers. A beer or 2 and you will have some scalps.

I will include, raised and at the two rear corners of the desk, a pair of small easel-type picture frame holders elevated on wood dowels that can be removed. One will hold my iPad so I can view fly tying videos to direct my work. The other will be for printed instructions and recipes.

its always enjoyable to watch your art of fly tying,i tie but i dont take enough time to realy make it art work ,thank u for sharing its always a pleasure.

I think the fellows that run the Fly Fishing Film Festival have a granting process in which they help fund various projects as I recall. Also Winston had a competition for completed films. You can also get sponsors for gear. I don't know if any of that helps but it is a start.

Hi Martin,
thanks for the compassion. The fishing worked, although rest would have done the foot a lot better. But as you rightly wrote fishing must be.
The fishing suffered a little from the rain. Although the water immediately under the dam didn't cloud, the river gained about a half meter within half a day, making wading close to impossible. Best fishing was Friday morning.
I share your positive view on zonker flies. The best one was a simple black design size 8 with dumbel eyes, fished on a sink tip. Perhaps I put this into a little tying instruction over the winter, It has a cousin without the weight and they are pretty effecitve, best fish was a chubby 40 cm brown.

Thanks Ricardo!

It's one of my favourite patterns, and Peter tied this wonderfully. Thanks for the support of the project!

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

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.
