letumgo 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2009 Nice camera Terje. You should get a lot of enjoyment out of it. Question about this fly: When you fish this pattern, do you treat the antron with anything to make it float? I love the construction of the fly. Simple, yet it does a beautiful job of imitating a range of insects. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably a ton of tungsten sink putty and xink when no ones watching, don't let the user name fool you :devil2: :hyst: Terje - That sounds like a pretty serious line up of glass, only sounds reasonable considering the quality of the body Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dryfly purist 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2009 Thanks Ray: I put the fly in some tmc dry dip or use some cdc oil or tmc dry magic. Then it floats really well and i can speed it up if i want to fly_fischa: Oh no my friend, the name is very believable I have to give the camera glass that it deserves ........ it is only a question of what i can afford in the long run ...... so it might take some time........

fly_fischa 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2009 In truth I was interested to know myself I couldn't help myself, you must be getting tired of the silly jokes buddy. You would have been proud of me today I went fishing and fished the dry all day in less than ideal conditions (Landed 3 nice browns). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When you are a dry fly purist you have to be able to take some jokes, so that is no problem for me I have had my share of jokes on nymph and streamer fishers so it´s only fair that i get some back I´m proud of you fly fischa, you are heading in the right direction Terje!
