nice variation to the normal "look at this fish!" shot..... very nice!

Thanks a lot gents. I did fine nymph ,hooks Daiichi 1720 size 8,10. They work good. I put a bit more deer hair at the head. I found them on my bench under some tying stuff. I think I had better clean the bench up so I can find stuff from now on.
Tight lines....
I tie a lot of small muddlers. I just use any size dry fly hook in a 2X-4X long. I also bought a bunch of small streamer hooks that were being discontinued. The gap is a bit small for my liking but the length and weight are ideal.
Streamcaddis,
Depending on the size you want to tie... Have you considere a salmon bomber dry fly hook like the Partridge CS42?
If you don't need large hooks there are plenty thin wire hooks in sizes from as small as you want them to about size 4 and 2. I have used hooks like Partridge's Captain Hamilton hooks, which are dry fly hooks available in sizes up to 6.
Hope this helps

Brandon,
We have lots of room! There is no limit to the number of people attending (other than room at the hostel, which beds about a couple of hundre people...), so send me a mail, and I will add you to the list.

I don't understand how the nail knot is so strong. It seems like the whole knot could "slip" off the fly line. I realize it's time tested, but it just don't seem intuitive.
Hi Korrie , the recipe is on the forun of this site, and also on my site : flyfish-hungary.com
It is made of closed cell foam....easy to tie, and deadly ..Tight lines !
Quite nice. Looks like it might be a bit more effective than some of the single strand guards. Thanks.
thankyou for the info and on a deadly fly to say the beast a i mean least
The killer caddis I know is a nymph, you have a Killer Caddis, which looks like it is made from closed cell foam and is a dry fly. Please supply me the recipe.

I am studing the anatomy of a birds wing and to rember it, I needed to know the atamoy of the feather. This sight was very useful! I was calling the shaft the steam, and I had no ides what to call the barbs (I would have been really embarrest if I showed my little report to some one who know what was what). I collect feathers and I always try to look up what kind of bird it was from, but the books ues these sientific words and I had no idea what they were. Now I do! Thank you so much!
Fantastic page, loved the instructions enjoyed the article very much indeed
Martin, greetings from Arkansas.
My name is Brandon Simmons and in 3 weeks my wife and I are moving to Eslov, Sweden. We are currently enrolled in Lund University for a 2 years masters program.
Fly fishing is my obsession and I am incredibly eager to meet your sea trout, salmon, etc.
I would very much like to participate in your gathering in Denmark and get to know you and your fishing buddies. Please let me know if you have availablility for 2 more.
My personal email is simmons dot brandon at gmail dot com
Any further details will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brandon Simmons
Hot work, D. You are a fine artist (in a French accent).
I would like to point out that for a number of years Mr Krieger has been lobbying here alongside those who, thinking themselves above the law, keep illegally closing public accesses to our rivers (remember: basically, there's no such a thing as "private waters" here in Argentina, despite what outfitters like Mr Krieger would like you to believe). The same rivers he tells us he love so dearly, are the rivers he contributes to keep illegally unaccesible for its true owners (that is all argentinians) as well as 'not worthy' visiting fishermen, as any of you could experience by yourself if you ever come here and try to fish his beloved rivers in many places, where his partners would eagerly bully you out before you can tell them what the law says about water courses. I'm sure he love our rivers, yes, almost as much as he loves your dollars/euros.
By the way, many fishermen here wonder how come that loving Patagonia so dearly, and after four decades, he can't articulate a single sentence in Spanish?
Marck,
No problem! Just join us wherever we wind up. Contact information will be posted later.

Hi Martin,
What are the possibilities for only participating for 1 day - like sunday or so?
Marck, DK
thanks for verifying the use of Rain-X for flylines. Do you know if it can be used with monofilament? Thank you.
what a nice adventure!!!!....Rolandas I can tell that Patagonia offers the same type of fishing, with a lot of alternatives in rivers, spring creeks and lakes...and no bugs or mosquitoes....
You are going to enjoy Patagonia fly fishing...get back to you with plans..Cheers

… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
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.
