Royal Coachman 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2006 Your opinion requested...what do you think...when refering to the list of materials needed to tie a given fly, is that list of materials a "recipe" or a "pattern?" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2006 I consider a material list a "recipe" because a given "Pattern" can be tied with a material list that might be a bit different than called for if desired. So in other words there might be a few different Recipes for one Pattern Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flytire 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2006 "Recipe" is a list of ingredients to make a fly "Pattern" . Just my opinion! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vices 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2006 . "Recipe" is a list of ingredients to make a fly "Pattern" . Dido I always thought that the recipe was the list of materials, and pattern was just the description or name of the fly.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ashby 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2006 I'm late, but I always call it a recipe, and the fly is the pattern as well. Ashby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
