flytire 0 Report post Posted June 24 flatsflytying decided 2 weeks ago to take on the messinger frog and has produced nothing might be a good idea to move on from him in this challenge thread anybody else want to tie a messinger frog? or move ahead with a different pattern Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trouttramp 0 Report post Posted June 26 I will take the Flash klinkhammer, It will be Friday before I can get to my tying bench though. It could be a little painful, I have an infected hangnail on my right thumb that is hurting like crazy. That opposable thumb thing is very useful, so sucks when it isn’t quite as useful ……..

Heff2 0 Report post Posted July 11 The Usual Hook: Standard Dry Fly Sizes 10-14 Thread: Danville's 6/0 Fly Master (Fl Orange or Fl Pink) Wing: Snowshoe Rabbit Foot Tail: Snowshoe Rabbit Foot Body: Snowshoe Rabbit Foot read a tip to break the toes apart for the best fur. This was the case, more of a calf hair texture in that part of the foot. next up: The Brassie A nice simple one, hopefully it doesn’t lead to someone leading the forum like the frog did.
