Winged caddis it is then. Yetavon, the secret to the winged fly is I clean the feathers and coat with Sally Hanson nail polish, let dry and cut to shape. Very effective during a hatch or just as a prospecting fly. It has no hackle. I use fly floatant when I fish. The dubbing is looped on and brushed to act as hackle. Caddis are usually very hairy looking.

Yetavon Don't be discouraged or overwhelmed, tie a nymph. Use pheasant for tail, wrap pheasant tail or biot for body. Use pheasant for legs, This one: tail-pheasant tail body-pheasant tail rib-copper wire wing case - pheasant body thorax-woodchuck legs -lower back pheasant lead weight- piece of old dental lead foil

OK, I’m torn on pattern. Would you rather have number one or number two?

BOB NELSON, are you behind this? Tracking History February 11, 2021, 8:02 pm Arrived at USPS Regional Origin Facility MID CAROLINA-CHARLOTTE NC DISTRIBUTION CENTER Your item arrived at our MID CAROLINA-CHARLOTTE NC DISTRIBUTION CENTER origin facility on February 11, 2021 at 8:02 pm. The item is currently in being sent to Fishing Bob Nelson in Tijuana, Mexico please pick up at local taco joint. Your CITES report did not declare sufficiently. California is not recognized by the USPS in South Carolina. Why would you mail trout flies to Oklahoma? Should we redirect the package to somewhere more appropriate for trout, say like Montana? Your post office appreciates your business. February 11, 2021, 5:44 pm Departed Post Office ROCK HILL, SC 29732 February 11, 2021, 3:12 pm USPS in possession of item ROCK HILL, SC 29732 -
If anyone drops out, I would fill in for them. You may have Fishing Bob text or call me if you have a tier emergency. I only need a day to get them out.

Bob Nelson I hope you see progress and nothing that can’t be replaced was damaged. I have that new photo App from the post office. They sent me a photo of the postal carrier delivering my flies this morning to your house. I’m wishing you and Sharon well. Be safe.

Your mailman was around when the pipes broke, was he? Remember Neumann on Seinfeld? They cause trouble to those who question the mail...... Seriously, great talking with you. Hope nothing important or irreplaceable was damaged. Hang in there.

Sparkle brown and gray caddis. I encourage you to please say a Novena for the package.

I’m late. Dropping in mail tomorrow. My gift for Santa should keep me off the naughty list.

Bob Our friends wanted to go out for Mexican. There are loads of authentic great places. They chose Charanda, a chain. There was an Asian chef and kitchen manager. Not a single Latino or a Latina to be found. That was a good carnitas......... not from Charanda.

Mine were mailed Monday.
