its frustrating - but can anyone imagine what will happen if you open 20 plisters to select 2 packages of hooks or if you do the same with any other material? there is hardly anything available without sealed in plasic.. Once open no one will buy it anymore without discount. So the shopowner wont be amused unless youspend more then 200 Euros. But usually I just add a few articles to my stores.
I don't where you buy but in ont Canada we don't have store looks like that mybe a 1/4 of what that store has ! that why have to order on line don't like to but have to get what I wont.
Do you sell this pike fly. I would love to have a dozen or so to take to Northern Manitoba this June.
We in Sequoia National Park at Lodgepole Market are asking permission to use your "Catch and Release" logo to promote fishing for generations. Thanks,

I have attempted to download Leader Calc, and cannot open it. I have downloaded it several times, and keep getting the same result. A prompt comes up that the download is complete but there is nothing there. Please help Thanks in advance.
Guys,
They are available from Danish Peter Falkenberg as mentioned on the Resources page in the article.

Tim,
Nice boxes as always. I'd love to have something like them for my upcoming trip to the Catskills in May.
I will most likely get some flies tied, but nothing near your production.

Sold for US $129.50
I have to agree with all others ... Hans, a very good article. The only one you need if you intent to tie with CDC
Hi Tom,
Very impressive and interesting, and I think a very good tool for this 'problem'.
I stay by tying Salmonflies, but I love your reels and tools so now waiting for more idea's....

I was first introduced to nymph fishing by Ed Koch more than 40 years ago and the method he used was referred to as "Pennsylvania High Sticking". The flies were different, Ed's were much smaller and all fur.
I knew they are there.... Big step forward. Congratulations & thanks to the explorers. Much appreciated. The threadfins are an interesting target as well. In the near future I will go there. Not too far form Muscat, as you stated.
Fish on,
Arne
Beautiful work here. This is one of my favorite streamer patterns.
Very nice work Marcelo.
Very nice tye Marcello..
This is one of my very favourite streamers, especially when tied with polar bear. I know bucktail is original, but PB has more life to it underwater.
Yes, I have the link and I will send it to you - the policy here is not to post links to other sites - I respect that! Still, the guy who posted that technique there (a very prolific and thorough romanian flytyier), didn't suggest that he was the originator - so I cannot give you the original. Anyway the front body, that complete the extended-body-mayfly, was made with cdc - which I'm a fan!
So, I'll mail you the link and anyone who wants it, just e-mail me.

Stan, Thanks for the comment. I do not doubt that someone else thought of the idea to make the bodies. I got the idea from a post where a fellow was spinning a mandrel with his fingers. Do you still have a link to that site? The true INNOVATION I claim, which may have existed, was to wrap the hackle between the hook and under the body so that the hackle, like legs, keep the abdomen off of the water. This presents a more natural look. This is key. I tried the extended bodies last year with the hackle around the wings (parachute) and they were not especially effective. I went to the NATURAL style last Fall and immediately saw great results. Try them, they catch fish!
