well my girlfriend went out chum fishing last weekend and it was awesome. i had made about fifteen flies and i dont have any of them left. everyone caught fish just as good as the other. i really dont think it was the look of the fly though. i did although have a couple legit bites though so i guess they all worked in their own way. my neck and back have been hurting so bad for three days know from all the fish we caught. i guess im gonna have to go buy more fly hooks.

well everyone. my girlfriend and are are learning alot of ways to tie flies. lots of YouTube videos. very helpfull. i am trying to tie the weav body but having a little trouble. i need to buy a croche hook. i also need some thicker line for it. this is awesome. i love tying flies. Joe P.S. Sorry im a bad speller.

ok another question. how do the get the hair to stand up like that on the front of the fly?
-

yeah. im getting tired of paying $3.00 for one fly and thats not the worst thing. i cant ever find the ones i want. we got a new Caballas store up here in washington and the fly man has been awesome. i took him a sample fly (SALMON FLY) and he made twelve replicas. of course with a few new modifications. stainless steel hook with a slight bigger shank. i was having problems getting good hook sets with the salmon. couldnt get deep enough. and of course the color. (PINK) for the coho. the only thing he asked is i bring him more supplies to make more. he doesnt even charge me to make them, but i would like to know how to do it myself. the new one is on the top.
