  1. Hats off to a great ice season and many more!
  2. Here's my 2 cents. Your progress is very good, keep on working it'll only get better. Try to make your dubbing noodle tighter, It'll make the definition between the front and back sections of the ant more distinct. That brings up the question of how. I mostly do it this way. I moisten my fingertips and get 'em mostly dry, so there's friction between my thumb tip and index finger tip, twist in only one direction and only from the top of the noodle to the bottom. Some folks use dubbing wax. https://www.flyfisherman.com/editorial/fly-tying-dubbing/459202
  3. Those are what I have also. https://www.amazon.com/Knives-Jewelry-Burnisher-Polisher-Polishing/dp/B09Q353R8J/ref=asc_df_B09Q353R8J/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=598244533119&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1786763487123699691&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9052071&hvtargid=pla-1660873018747&psc=1&mcid=40c3af5241933fc3b4d8e4c64923470d&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIkr7FrPv9hAMVcy7UAR27AgpPEAQYASABEgI2nfD_BwE 11 bucks
  4. My pleasure. BTW, that bone dry is good stuff.
  5. DK Pro user here. I grease the collet threads lightly and the shaft of the jaws.. I don't think that does anything but what the hey. Lithium grease for me. a little dab'l do ya.
  6. I've found Solarez bone dry to take about 10 seconds to dry hard.
  7. I hear you. In that vein it's the mastery of technique(s)% rather than using an exact recipe list, cause they all work at one time or another.
  8. Merci beaucoup. I rarely do but....Sometimes I'll go bigger with hoppers too.
  9. Nice touch with the shell casing.
