Hooked by a fly

Recommended Posts

It started out as a good night. I fixed my son a fantastic spaghetti dinner and cleaned up the kitchen.

I joined this site and introduced myself. I watched a good movie and then I went to bed. Thats when it happened. Now mind you I have been a very studious newbie tyer and have paged through many fly tying books. It started after I got to sleep and it kept surfacing and repeating Itself. Lefty Deciever fly. Over and over.

You need a Lefty Deciever fly. No not a right one but a left one. I remember kind of smerking when it came up. What color is it? What kind of feathers? I decided to turn on my right side and that inspired another thought. Not your right side because you need a Lefty Deciever. Finally I woke up around 4:00 a.m. and with compulsion had to look up a Lefty Deciever. Thank You Lefty Kreh for your saltwater creation. Even in Northern Wisconsin could I not leave home without it or for that matter find peace in the night. What was really strange it was not a nymph pattern that disrupted my sleep nor one that I have ever given any consious thought to.. I actually woke up laughing to myself.

LOL...I used to have the same kind of Dreams about Hunting :D

Now, with thanks to this site, I do the same thing about tying Flies! The problem is most of the time it's a Fly I have no idea how to tie! :o LOL

Wonderful post! I don't often have such dreams now, but still, sometimes I'll get thoughts of fly patterns at the most inconvenient times!
