Downloaded a bunch of the tying shows for KWSU

you have to download the Open Media Network viewer which also acts as the downloader.

In one of the epidsodes showed him trimming the fluff off and he laid the feather on top of the hook 1 soft wrap then one a little tighter then using the stem pulled it back until he had the size of the wings he wanted. He then wrapped them tight lifted them built a dam of thread in front and DONE. It was a slick little trick and the ends lined right up.

Just Fishing! All life is that to some extent. If we are not fishing for one thing it is another. But angling! That's just a bit different. In it we find peace and contentment and much with which to occupy our minds. May the balance of our fishing days be blessed with congenial comrades and "tight lines." Ray Bergman
