G'day Martin...
All the L.C.A.'s are wonderful... I've comfortably settled into my BB comfort zone...
While epoxy still has a place in production tying and fixing loose chairs, I won't be playing any more 5 minute "beat the clock" nor hangin' stuff out to "dry" on my phly turner...

Pete,

Pete,

We'll see about the Diamond Hard. I'm also getting some Bug-Bond and a new and powerful lamp.

Still love most of the LCR's for the convenience. It's much more fun and easy doing coated saltwater and pike flies with this stuff at your hands.

Beautiful fly, and wonderful tribute to your dog. I used to have a white GSD. She was one of the best dogs I've ever had. They do hold a special place in your heart. You have a gem of a fly here. Jessie would nod approval for sure. (and so will the fish)

When putting the body hackle

when putting the body hackle for a wickham,s fancy,next time,try using a saddle hackhle with the flue NO longer than the gape of the hook,and STRIP the flue from one side of the hackle.this will make a more sparsley hackled body. wind fine gold wire over the hackle to protect from breaking due to fish teeth abrading it.this is a really great fly when bounced on the surface of a 3 fly "cast of flies as the top dropper. it works well any where on the leader.
