DoubleHaul 0 Report post Posted November 29, 2013 Bruce - Nice work! I didn't realize that Pat had some DVDs out until I saw one of your other posts. I bought the duck one and a Jr Packer tool. Cool stuff. I'm thinking a redwing black bird version will be deadly... -Jeff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sjbellrichard 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2013 Bruce, Awesome fly and I like that it will be admired by more than fisherman. If you could buy one deer stacking video this Christmas, which one would you recommend? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
