Help need to find a Site

[Bear Coat 0]

Hello Everyone,

 

I know it has been a while since I have been on here. But I am still alive.

 

I am looking for a Site I had on my list of Favorites which was "Old and Unusual Wet Fly Patterns" which I had lost.

 

I am looking for a particular Wet Fly Pattern called "Gravel Bed".

 

If anyone could help me on this, I sure would appreciate it.

 

Thank you,

Bear Coat

Thanks Smalliehunter,

 

This looks like the Site I remember. It looks like he has made some changes in it though.

 

Thanks again,

Bear Coat

Thank you Steeldrifter for your kind words.

 

Fatman, that was the exact page I was looking for. I didn't need the "Gravel Bed" in particular, but it was the only name I could remember from that page.

 

I use some of these old patterns to give me Ideas for tying Streamers. I found one (Can not remember where) called "Paint Brush". I tied it into a Streamer and gave it to my Son-in-Law. He told me that it was very effective producing 2 Brown, one was 15" and the other was 17.5" in the same day. That got me all fired up.

 

Thanks again.
