Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
Re: Fun Day
Amazing. It's hard to find a complaint with days like this on the river. That caddis pupa you tied, I'm really digging that pattern.

Wayne,
I attempted to copy your pattern but I am having a problem with the brown soft hackle. How did you get it so neat? Mine is too long. Also any comments on the green dubbing for me? Nice tie!!!!

The Hackle is Brown hen from Whitings. I tie it in by the stem much like Has does. Go through his videos and you will see how easy it is.
The Green dubbing is Chartreuse antron from fly tyers dungeon. Hank gave it to me. It is tyed in a split thread. Also, check Hans's videos for this technique.
