Nice one Don...

I like this BB because it is

I like this BB because it is not too crowded, it may take a wee while to get a response, but we are fly fishers who are expected to have patience, (that is a laugh) anyway I like a little peace and quiet from the over indulgent egos on some other BBs.

Stunning fly. The profile is dead on. Beautiful colors, and choice of materials.

Bit of a shame these

Bit of a shame these have been discontinued- I felt as though the build quality showed up a lot of the $700 flagship rods. I have a 6wt Sw and it ticks off all of the boxes of a high end saltwater rod. I still can't get over the flor grade cork....

nice film, bad to us

nice film, bad to use the "boga grip" or garf because the fish died few hours later always !!

I use a nailless nail knot

Ariel,

No, I use neither of these knots (which are not the same). I use a nailless nail knot, which you can see here, which looks like part of both the uni and the Duncan knots, but aren't quite the same.

Pete, Florian, Donald,

Pete, Florian, Donald,

Thanks for the kind words. As long as you guys and a few others keep posting, I feel that there's a good reason to keep this running. I enjoy the calm tone and the great flies, and it might not be busy and high traffic, but it has its charm.

Martin

Florian,

Florian,

Really sorry to hear about your agony. Hopefully it will disappear once the surgery heals...

EPO, stereoids, pain-killers, blood doping... you have to go fishing! And I'm sure standing with the sore foot in cold water will help!

And no, no doping for me, but crutches, support bandages and even a wheelchair has been (is) on my tab. We don't get any younger.

A Uni (Duncan) knot?

Dear M.J. Isn't your fly to line knot a Uni (Duncan) knot?

Much better quality

Paul,

Nope, these should be a much better quality. I have ordered one and will be reporting about the result as soon as I get it.

Well done Bob.

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
