  1. FYI I use this from Griffin among others: https://www.griffinenterprisesinc.com/index.cfm/product/31_5/adjustable-hair-evener.htm PT/TB
  2. I have been fishing the Eastern Sierra since 1952 and fly fishing the same since 1974. I tie almost all of my own fly patterns and have been since 1974. There are two partridge skins that I use: The above skin is from Nature's Spirit and has feathers that are predominately brown-ish.. This skin is from Wapsi and the feathers are predominantly grey... This site (flyfishingthesierra.com) is where you got the info on Yvon's pattern: https://flyfishingthesierra.com/ptpart.htm These are some soft hackles I have tied with the hackle feathers for Wapsi: Frankly, in my experience I don't think the Trout I have encountered in the Eastern Sierra have a preference...

  15. I haven't tied any flies since October of 2018 due to a bunch of medical experiences and moving back down from Pullman, WA to Los Angeles. My youngest daughter Ally, who is in Veterinary Medicine School at WSU , in Pullman, bought me some tying goodies for Xmas and told me that it was time to get back on the horse... Xmas gift.. Some #18 (TMC 2488H) HOT VAC's with thread bodies, I tied up on Saturday. I will be setting up my photo area and shooting individual pics soon... PT/TB
