Ridleyffo 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 Did someone abduct Terje or post with his computer??? Great ants. I really enjoy when I see you branch out. Not many ants still falling but will definitely tie some of these up for late summer/early fall next year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dwiltshire 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2009 No, no, no Terje. I just can't decide if I like them... ... so you're gonna have to post them to me to test out Great tying as ever. Haven't seen much of you on the UKFD... hope you're doing well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flyfish Dog 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2009 Great looking ties! I have a few of my own that I made for a friends trip out west that I am gonna have to post. Ants are still a good searcher pattern along the banks in winter time so dont be afraid to cast a couple. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dryfly purist 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2009 Thanks Dave and Flyfish Dog Dave: You wish .......i`m afraid they are on their way to a Norwegian buddy of mine so i`m not gonna use them either I have not been much on UKFD lately because my photo account is full at the page i`m downloading pictures from, but i will be back as soon as i have upgraded my account ......... i also have been bothered with the swineflu virus the last couple of weeks but now i`m getting better and hopefully will be back at work next week. This virus is a pain in the ass for sure Terje! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
