  1. The funny thing about that artical is it was made using Clear Cure Goo. The whole reason it was written was to show how fast and easy you can make a spoon fly using CCG. But as the wonderful world of editors goes the changed it to say epoxy because CCG is not a advertiser of the mag. There is a video of how they did it on clearcuregoo.com
  2. I also have the dubit tool i got from Dave at Casters fly shop, I love it. I wouldn't use anything else.
  3. I order 95% of my tying materials from casters fly shop, they are simply the best. The only other place I order from is J Stockard.
  4. Very good looking fly, I may have to tie a few up.
  5. those are some really nice looking flys, I really wish I could tie like that.
  6. I got a Rite bobbin a few weeks back and i am really impressed with it, i think it will be what i tie with from now on.
  7. Ok, i have a dumb question? why do I you have to rotate the fly? what will happen if you just let them set and dry?
  8. do you have a Lg brown left?
  9. Ok I have never used epoxy before so I have a few questions. What is better 1min or 5min? Do I have to have a rotating dryer? Whats the best way to apply it? Thanks in advance for any help anyone my be able to give.
  10. It looks really good. I have ne using a portable tying station lately and I really like it better then my desk in the basement.
  11. I still have a hard time getting eggs right.
  12. Thanks for all the help, I think I am going to order one of those 100fly packs.
  13. I am still not good at figuring out what materials to use on what flys. I am wanting to tie some size 14-18 Elk Hair Caddis and I was worder what is the best hackle to use for the money. I dont have a ton to spend right now. Any help would be greatly appricated.
  14. I have a Renzetti traveler and I love it. I don't see me ever buying anything else.
  15. Yea on the Nantahala a nymph is prob. you best bet. It is a dam controled river so you need to be careful and check on the release times. When they release it the water is and mostly class 3 to 5 rapids, it very tough to wade. The Nantahala is the only river in NC you can fish at night because of this reason but I do not recomend it when its really dark.
  16. Thanks for all the help guys.
  17. I am pretty new to fly tying and I was wordering how is the best way to buy soft hackle, and where to get it? Can I buy soft hackle without buying A whole cape? any help would be great. thanks in advance
  18. I have a Renzetti Traveler and am very happy with it, I am not the best tyer but the rotery is very handy
  19. Hello, my name is Steven and I am new to the site and pretty new to tying. I have had a kit for at least 12yrs but never really messed with it. About two years ago I took a tying class through the pisgah center for wildlife edu. and i brought a new RENZETTI vise and a few other things. Now a year later i am starting to tye a good bit. I still need alot of practice but I am gettin better. I fish alot so tying my on flys really would be the way to go, LOL
