Chase Creek 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2011 I would say not more than 12. If you want participation by new guys, a large number is pretty intimidating, and may discourage someone new at this from signing up. My $.02 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eastern fly 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2011 I have been looking for a US distributor for Kamasan Hooks. Most of the overseas places dont want to deal with the money exchange. Does anyone know where I can get them? I may have to use a sub. Kevin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I checked them both and didn't have the hook I need. I may have to sub. The one place I did find wants $23 for 100 hooks plus shipping. Kevin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the info but they dont have the one I need also. I have found a sub that as close as I can get, and thats part of the swap rules. I cant expect people tp pay out the noise to get something. Do the best you can to get what you need. Kevin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riffleriversteelheadslayer 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2011 I was wondering if it would be acceptable to change the size of the fly I was thinking of tying a panfish fly but tying it for bass a bit bigger but using the same materials just a larger scale Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
