Cure resin with your uv flashlight. Invented by Jack Howarth of Colorado Springs, the original pattern was tied tailless, with black thread and orange floss.

SILKHDH 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2019 Well all be! I don't know if I remember anyone posting an Asher. This fly is the "lake fly" at Rainbow Lake, just west, up Cottonwood pass from Buena Vista Colorado. They always recommended it at the office/souvenir shop. Ah! the memories! Good ol Amber Asher. The green wasn't bad either. Thanks for the flash back flytire. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicente 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2019 Those look great, you could probably use the same technique to improve the durability of a good number of flys with hackle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
