Dart 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2010 That makes my eyes hurt thinking about tying a sz 30. Impressive! Hopefully you'll be able to catch a ladybug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dwiltshire 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2010 Thanks Dart Hopefully you'll be able to catch a ladybug! Do they fight well on a #2? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dart 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2010 Thanks Dart Hopefully you'll be able to catch a ladybug! Do they fight well on a #2? It depends on if it's from Alabama or not. We feed pork fat to everything that lives here... if that's the cast, you may need a #4! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

letumgo 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2010 I'm not sure which I like more...your beautiful fly tyed on a size 30 hook (insane) or the crystal clear photos. I'm impressed by both, Dave. Thanks for sharing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riffleriversteelheadslayer 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2010 hey dave a little trick I learned as I got older is when tying them little bugs if you start out after tying your thread base if you add a short piece of tippet into the fly it makes it easier to tie to a leader at a later time great fly I love it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
