Thomas, you are one more anonymous, which contributes nothing to the height of this debate. If you can not point to any improvement on the theme, I believe it is better to be silent!! I stand with name, surname and address (e-mail). Wretched and hapless are those who try to say something and ignorantly refer to anything or make personal attacks meaningless, this is the true arrogance ....

Simple and awesome. The picture of them next to an actual caddis is stunning. Well done.

I would like to acknowledge the use of PVC coated braid running lines in conjunction with DIY shooting heads and i agree that the DIY shooting head should never be less than nine netres in length including the short front taper if the characteristic "Kick" is to be avoided in the final turnover of the line. This appears to be the case whatever the weight of the head. I experimented with very short heavy heads in attempt to fly cast in very restricted conditions but found that it ruins presentation. Nine metres long heads is as short and as practical as it can be.

Yowza! A couple deft moves at the bench and I believe we have a soft shell crawdad treat for my largemouth bass and brown trout! This idea is sooo stolen. (Sorry, no crab crunchers in Arizona)

Bruce,
You had me laughing there!
I'm both glad and sorry that the flies were so realistic that the birds took them. Imagine their effect when fish are around!
You will have to tie up a new bunch and keep a good eye on them while they cure.

Made three of these and put them out in the sun to finish curing. They promptly disappeared. I think they have been so buggy looking that the birds carried them away!

hi dave,
your wife does some really beautyful calligraphy on those rods! i'll be trying to stick to your tips for my next projects, unfortunately minwax products aren't available in europe... do you have any recommendations on alternatives, maybe some kind of PU based yacht-/boat-varnish might do the job as well?

Pedro,
I am a human crab cracker who finds your sexy crab a very alluring and innovative fly. Your sexy crab and your perminator, in reality, would not get along well. The mantis shrimp would quickly smash the crab and enjoy a good meal.
I can understand why fish are attracted to the sexy crab fly. You do impressive work with zonker strips.

Che Guevara, your arrogance is classic. You pretend to be "the judge" of the rest of the guys that brought their opinions here. You are just 1 opinion. No more. And as I said below, I am in the opposite of your's.
Have a good fishing and enjoy life.

Hi Gary;
I remember our communication after I posted that Silver Jungle wet fly, the recipe is from Ray Bergman's book Trout. Always liked that pattern, it's nice to see it here on Streamers365. Congratulations! Nice work!

Thanks and Yes Don your wet fly 'Silver Jungle" led me to this pattern. It has done very well for me and my friends that have used it on trout and Atlantic Salmon.
Barry my friend best of luck on your trip. I hope it leaves you bent and I am looking forward to your pics already....

If your want try this experience use a Line below and one number up, or that specify
Nimber, you may find solutions to wind condition, charge early your distance on small
River , try it, with today avaibility of type of line, it - plus to try
