Where does the clouser minnow work best? Are there any specific colors that work better for specific fish? Thanks :D

Fly tying - Tie Better

Hi! I am a new member. :D I am a beginner to fly tying. I want to start making my own saltwater flies so I can fish for snook and bonefish. What tools will I need to start with except a vise? I bought this vise: http://www.basspro.com/White-River-Fly-Shopreg;-Classic-Vise/product/982... Is it good for tying saltwater flies? Both large and small? Thanks.

WTB - Battenkill LA III extra spool(s)

Fly fishing - Fish Better

Hi all, Just picked up a [u:4994991494][b:4994991494]black[/b:4994991494][/u:4994991494] Battenkill LA III reel and am looking for an extra spool (or two) for it. [u:4994991494][b:4994991494]It's the 4 spoke model [/b:4994991494][/u:4994991494](as opposed to the earlier 3 spoke models). I might also be interested in buying a second reel (to match) if anyone has one available. Wondering if anyone might be in need of some fishing money.? Just reply to this post or PM me. Thanks, Bent rods, FF (aka Rick)
