  1. Hans your flies are so simple yet so bueatifull. You should have your own series of flies like Ray Bergman has. T-Boll
  2. HOLY CANOLI! Kodiaksalmon those flies are huge and awesome did you tie them? I realy like the first orange one and the sixth green one.

  4. Ok so im not a photography freak, but i do need some help with my avatar like i can't change or get one for that matter. every time I paste the url of the photo that silly little power button thing shows up as my avatar, how do i get the photo i actually want?

  8. Hey Kimo, sorry had i known you were the developer i would have asked you first. But anyway im sixteen next month and dont know any techies, but i have a prrtty darn good geuss at why it thought it was a bad sight. And i think it was because it thought it was a bad sight since its owned by a single personell and didnt have any google aproved ads(making the sight trustworthy or something like that) it thought it must have viruses. Maybe. Thank you for telling me i was just making sure that i wouldnt get any viruses. I dont know correct me if im wrong About any of what i just said. T-Boll
  9. Hi Ray, have you noticed any potential..um...viruses? on this site? cause when i clicked on the link my McPhee processor said this was a dangerous site and i clicked out of it. i am not trying be rude or anything but are there any viruses in this site? like adware, trojans, tracking cookies, or spyware or anything like that?
  10. If your talking silicon legs then, what i do for a normal spider is i take one strand and i put end toe end around my thread, and then i slide the leg up till it squeezes itself between the body of the fly and the thread, and I do the same for the other side. Hope this helps.
  11. Haha sorry i should have just posted the video anyway but can i do what he does to the reel and like... open it? http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=how%20to%20set%20your%20baicaster%20youtube&source=web&cd=5&ved=0CD8QtwIwBA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D1QqY5QI6C2A&ei=BOBYT_rlEYqFsALFoOmvDQ&usg=AFQjCNHVXfQgIT7mTCgQ0DnA0xn5X4Uldg
  12. Hey guys i'm getting ready for bass fishing this year, and I was watching some fishing videos on youtube and this guy took the opposite side from the crank off of the bait caster and it exposed a magnetic drum break with six pins in it. so i tried to take off that part on my Quantum Tenacity AP reel and i can't do it. does anyone know how or if it has that kind of magnet system that i can fine tune or is it the little dial that goes from 1-10? the models number is :TEN300CX. P.S. there is nothing on the internet about this subject I looked everywhere.
  13. hmmm.. there too sparse for rooster tail, what do the quil fibers feel like? are they stiff and pointy or kind of like normal hackle?
  14. Well now that was strange the quick reply wasn't there. Anyway! Very nice fly as mentioned in previos comments about sparseness i like them thick and the hair is very proportionalized, Good Job! ps. Proportionalized- something that has been beautifully rationed into different parts. From- my head T-Boll
  15. Well right now all we have for the our Jon boat is a trolling motor becuase the only lake that my dad went to before i was born was a private lake club and they don't allow gas engines (it's a resivior) i think i spelled that wrong but (thats the reason for the trolling motor), but every year my family and I go to on two different lakes for vacations and it would be nice to have a boat(or motor) to get us from one cove to the next without taking an hour to do it. and by outboard motor i mean like the kind that has the throtle in the handle and it clamps on to the transom and you have to stay in the back to steer it(just to make sure were all on the same page) And it doesen't have to be that low but probably less 500$ but i just talked with me father and he said if his worker would just hold out on selling it till we get our tax return we might end up buying it, but this a back up plan. Thank you for reading my confusing paragraph. sometimes my brain likes to skip words T-Boll
  16. Hey y'all, my dad was thinking about bying a ski boat from one of his workers and he is asking $2000-$2200 for it. but we don't have the cash right now, and his worker needs it gone so we aren't going buy it . But I offered the idea of just buying an outboard motor for our 16' Jon Boat. We have no idea what kind of motor we should get or the size for that matter. so could anyone shine some light on this for us? and it doesn't have to be brand new but it does have to stay between 100-200$ range, i did find some on Ebay for a 100.00$ but the description sounded as if all of the parts werent there. Thank you in advance. T-Boll
  17. HAHA!.. thats awesome. I wish i was quick witted like that when I was a child.
  18. i would say that most definately counts like how often do you get yellow hair from the testicles of an albino yak. I find that somwhat humerous aswell but i think thats just me
  19. I forgot to mention the Dr Pepper fly is a minnow/spoon fly made with the tin of a DR Pepper can wrapped around the hook with someother things tied as the tail
  20. Ok so what is the weirdest materials everyone have ever used or still uses. Like i think we all have seen the Dr Pepper minnow, so materials like that. The strangest material i have used are strips of warhead sour candy wraper as bodies for streamers.
  21. My granny uses mane and tail from southern states and her hands are ever so soft. Gold bond will work. You might want to ask your boss if you can bring your own sanitizer that doesnt dry out your hand as much but what do i know im 15.
  22. Ok the best way to take a picture of a fly is to have it zoomed out all the way, and to have a blue background. The blue helps to contrast colors in the camera so that might help. From what it might look like and from how you described it, the fly should be a neat little fly. Also you could take some dyed black pheasant tail and put the tips on either side to make wings. Hope this gives you some ideas and helPs a little with picture taking. T-Boll
  23. lets see here, how about andantino (Ferdinando Carulli), Theme (G.F. Handell), Orlando sleepeth (John Dowland), Air Thomas Robinson), and Allegro (Franz Joseph Haydn). Just to name a few for you look up Frederick M. Noad there is a CD with a whole lot of music like this find these songs and string them together it would be very nice to hear in the background or in the intro. these are not Fly fishing melodies or whatever though they are short near a minute or shorter. I hope I helped, You might want to try Jack Johnson he has great music but he doesn't do accustic but has some nice calming songs, again hope this helped. T-Boll
  24. For the mice all three of them are fine and should catch fish. As for the picture turned sideways i dont, probably happened before you posted it like from the sd card and the veiwing/choosing part you know, but you can download something called faststone photo resizer just Google it for the blown up pics. Tightlines T-Boll
  25. Heres a hopper i created awhile ago. hook: unknown hook i used a random bluegill hook i thing its a size 12-10. Thread: yellow (i used black cause i dont have any yellow thread or any other thread for that matter, yep im poor) Legs: knotted rooster badger hackle Abdomen: syn. yellow dubbing with yellow craft foam wrapped in wire. Under wings: rabbit fur (straight from hide, not dubbing) Wing case: Yellow craft foam, and brown/olive deer hair. Head: Yellow craft foam folded over Neck: syn. Yellow dubbing. if this is good enough and confusing reply back and ill make a video of it. Have a nice day! T-Boll
