deerhairdan 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2016 Still developing this pattern. I changed the hooks to new hooks from Ahrex Hooks out of Scandinavia....they are the predator series which has a heavier wire gauge then what i was using. The bend is similar to a B10s, but has a longer shank. These are #1 on the back and 2/0 on the front. This fly now includes a rattle on the front hook....i love the sound and the "shoulders" the additional bulk provides the flly. I am really really digging where this pattern is going.

Bruce Norikane 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2016 I agree with Mike on using the quote button and manually deleting unnecessary things, especially photos. I also agree with flytire's desire to get rid of duplicate photos, but as Mike points out, you need the quote button to show what you're replying about. "Reply to post (without quote)" and "Reply with Quote" buttons would make it easier, but for now we need manual edits. doesnt any body ever use the "reply to this topic" area to simply respond to a previous post, make a comment, ask a question etc etc etc? (1) do we need to see the same photos over and over again and again? does everything need to be "quoted"? (2) (1) I usually use the quote button because there are more posts between my reply and what I am replying to. Just like this thread. Without the quote for context, my reply might not make sense. (yeah, yeah, yeah ... my reply might not make sense anyway, just because it's me, but you get my point) (2) You wrote in a later post, that the quoted material can be edited. I recommend and do this. If I am replying to a post with a picture in it, and the picture is unnecessary, I click on it and delete it.If I am replying only to certain parts of a post, like yours above, I will delete the sentences I am NOT replying to and sub-note those I am.
