Sandan 0 Report post Posted May 18, 2018 In another thread someone mentioned Kelly Galloup's Found Link. I've had great success fishing Mercer's Missing Link. So I figured I'd go Found also. 22 in the vise. 18,20 and 22 together. Not perfect but I'm working on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ggmiller 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2018 Haven't posted my flies as of late. Busy tying for others and work 7 days a week. A request I had was my size #1 streamer sized down to #14. Staying with my pattern but no 3d eyes here it is. Tom, any chance of getting a recipe for this fly? I like this pattern a lot, looks like a fish getter! Thanks for posting!!
