Next fly October Caddis?

Might not be an alevin. Not really sure what an alevin is. But here is a little minnow.
-
I’ll try the alevin. I don’t tie many minnow patterns.

Next fly up any kind of flying ant will do 🐜

Niveker you’re right tons of black squirrels in canada, I swear in southern Ontario they’re the size of a small dog. And not afraid of people.

Fillet knife for salmon
Northcaddis replied to NatalieWTruby's topic in Fly Fishing Gear & Techniques
Grohmann makes some nice knives. I little bit expensive but would probably last you a life time. I’ve used them for years no complaints I’ve cut salmon up to 25 pounds with the 8” blade easy . Rapalas and inexpensive brands are good also. -
75 year old Brook Trout record falls.
Northcaddis replied to DFoster's topic in Fly Fishing Gear & Techniques
I live in northern ontario. A lot of the lakes are stocked every year. If you can do the work and trek into these places it’s well worth it. But better be prepared. I’ve driven down dirt roads for 3 to 4 hrs and there is no cell phone service lol and winter through the ice seems to be when the big ones are caught -
Tippet Ring Curly-Q's
Northcaddis replied to Current Angler's topic in Fly Fishing Gear & Techniques
I use a clinch and always use my forceps to hold the ring. Never had it tangle up. I’ve been using partridge rings lately. -
Dry+Dropper swap, WENT OUT 3/15/2022
Northcaddis replied to Trouttramp's topic in Fly Swaps & Contests
It’s always the ones that are the closest, sometime things have to go to a sorting facility further than the recipient and then back. But on the bright side there’s still 5 feet of ice on the lakes ! In some places anyway -

Good to hear ! And not a problem when you just hang on to old flies for decades why not let a few go and have a new home. Yes been snowing here for a few days can’t keep up but it’s better than -40 c everyday. -

Same here and it’s hard to ice fish with a fly rod. Though I do use some beaded nymphs through the ice.
