Thanks Crackaig, Good to see he is doing well. I always enjoyed his videos and SBS's

Does anyone know what happen to Hans Weilenmann? He posted so many good SBS pics and videos for so many years and had a good website but it's been about 2 years since he has posted anything on the internet.Just wondering what happen to him?

Just wondering what happen to Hans W? His website has not been update for some time and not seen much of him on the various forums recently. I always enjoy seeing and tying his patterns.

I think it is a combination of flash and weight, both of which can be very helpful on any given day. I don't tie the exact CJ as it have to many steps. But I tie a similar simpler fly with wire wrap in multiple colors, black tungsten bead and a small bit of dubbing with flash surrounding the bead to hide the bead and give it some movement and a pheasant for tail. It sinks like a rock and is bright for sure and it has done me well.

Hi, I’d like to get a macro lens for a Nikon DSLR I have, I’m not familiar with macro photography so would like to get some feedback from anyone here on what lens you use for nice macro shots of flies? What should I look for in a lens spec’s other than is stating it’s a macro lens? I’d like to get nice very close up shots, something along the quality of Han’s pics for example.

Ok so it sounds like everyone is still using a plastic sheet of some kind even with resin. Then coating the resin over both the plastic and wire

I am getting ready to tie up some scuds with Silver Creeks resin for the backing instead of using clear plastic sheet. Wanted some feedback if anyone has used it for scuds. Do you apply the resin over the dubbing then wrap wire over hardened resin? Or do you wrap wire around dubbing then apply resin over both the wire and dubbing?

Hi, How small flies can the micro slits in the foam on the lid of this box hold?

I really like those C&F boxes but they are SO expensive I can't bring my self to get one yet....I am sure I will eventually, but they are hard to find. A few fly shops have told me they don't like carrying CF stuff because it's hard to get from Japan. I did buy a pack of the CF threaders and those things are GREAT

I like those magnetic ones PT, who makes them? Seems like a simple option.

What boxes do you guys use for size 20 and smaller flies? I am starting to tie a lot of small stuff for this winter and it seems difficult to store 26, 24, 22's in slit foam style boxes. I was thinking of using a magnetic compartment style boxes for these little guys. I wanted to see if anyone has a tiny midge box they like?

Hi, What is the red hackle? looks like Whitings red CDL?

Hi, The link to the pattern is not working. I'd love to know how you tied the wing? and material used? Great looking fly.

Hi, Did the flymph forum go down? All I get is a white error page

Thanks I will log in then
