mikechell 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2016 I look at those flies and all I can see is ... an umbrella in a strong wind ... or, someone sneezed just as you were attaching the hackle. Oh ... and maybe this is why they are catching fish for you ... a woman standing over the air outflow of the subway, as in "Marilyn Monroe". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
