Not really tying. Mostly crafting! I have yet to try one. I have tied them in tan, yellow, olive and chartreuse. My friends all stand around with their hands out so they at least catch fisherman. :hyst:

 

Thanks

is this with the new river road foam cutter???....I love their cutters.....looks nice

 

Yes, they are. I broke down and bought all 4 sets because I couldn't decide which size would work best. They do a great job. The hoppers are time consuming though.

A piece of art. Are you really going to fish it?

 

Oh Yeah! :headbang: I tied up six of each color and each size so I have (had) 96 of them. Friends like them so I have about half that number left and I owe smalltownfisherman's swap 12 but I am going to see if they work as soon as hopper season hits.

Rob....I can testify to the foam head minnow cutter and the crease fly all tie very fast

 

the STP frog is a bit time consuming.....and I have another chernobyl or similar cutter that isn't too bad

 

butt the hopper looks worth the extra effort......I'll be curious to see how it rides in the water.

They float in the water like a dream. That was the first thing I thought was "how do they float" So I tossed one in the water and couldnt believe how good it looked and how well it floated. I also just purchased a set for size 10 and am very pleased with the size of the final product.

 

Come on hopper season!!
