As usual, we old guys think a lot alike.

This is basically how I fishtoo. However, I have an old Hardy that reels right handed. It feels natural, too. I cannot use a left handed baitcaster, though.

Love these patterns, guys. Give them a mouth full.

I tend to wrap the feather without folding. When the stem goes into the groove in the Chenille, the feathers go kindof both ways.

Sorry to respond late, but that sounds like a blast!

Can someone photograph them and post?

I sold a 30-30 a few years ago and regret it. I gifted a Colt 38 special to a close friend, but do not regret that. I have a muzzle loader shotgun that was used by my ancestor at Shiloh. I have a German Mauser that was gifted to me by an old man who was a close friend and client. I have several matched pairs of pistols and a Belgian Browning Sweet 16 that were my Dad's. One of my most cherished possessions is my Dad's Browning recurve bow.

I think I will tie a Foxy Couser

Still waiting on one set. I will give it until the seventh.

I will join

For dubbing most things I use plain beeswax.

Good luck on your quest for an improved lifestyle! We all know what to do, but we have to make it enjoyable to stick with it. Also, we need goals and a reason to get our asses off of the couch. I have a camping Elk hunt planned each year that involves a lot of walking and a new Grandchild that I want to be able to run around with.

These are well photographed. I learn better from photos than videos. Thanks.

All of these crawdads look great. Mark, yours is a beauty! Is it weighted or do you use a sinkinking line, or both?

This fly has a "look" that is convincing. Beautiful tying, Norm.

No big deal. I have been trying to get home but having connection issues
