Hello Darren.

I was wondering about the fly box and when it will be auctioned on ebay or did I miss it already. Thanks Loretta

I like the patterns

I like the patterns you tie and the illustrations on how to tie and come up with gorgeous flies.The quality is good and i believe they are durable enough.

Great looking mayflies! Very buggy, which is a thing I like.

Le Pécheur de Mouche Mondial

Gilles,

Le Pécheur de Mouche Mondial? That would be something! But it's not going to happen, I'm afraid. Your best chance is too feed our pages into Google Translate. It won't be perfect, but maybe easier to understand. This page looks like this in automated French.

Martin

Thanks very much for

Thanks very much for your fabulous site If it was also in French I would be very very happy

Wonderful picture. L

Wonderful picture. Love the parchment technique.

Try looking on Ebay

Try looking on Ebay for your Jungle Cock cape; but instead of looking under fly tying materials try looking under feathers for making jewelry. I tried this on a whim and wound up getting a beautiful #1 cape for $100.00. Lesser capes in the fly tying materials section were going for at least what I paid and most had bids on them. I was the only one who bid on the one I got.

I am using sinking line

Yes. I am using sinking line when fishing with that type of flies......... Kim

Thanks for writing

Daniel,

Thanks for writing.

CP and MS at once! Some people have all the luck, huh?
I know you can live with these diseases. My own MS is under control and I'm doing fairly well. My wife and I have been a part time foster family for a boy with CP since he was 5 (he turns 13 next year), and he is also doing fine and almost always in a good mood in spite of being paraplegic and spastic.
Even though both he and I have our problems, we both live a good life (and a lot of fun racing in our wheelchairs). I can imagine having both diseases at once is really hard, but I hope that both she and you in her family cope and that you manage to go fishing together.

I have had great use of my small pontoon boat and kayaks, enabling me to go on the water, and I'm also able to fish from a boat, which has brought me some nice experiences.

Best wishes for the future to her and the whole family.

Martin

You took my heart away

Martin. You took my heart away while reading the article. I also have a handicapped daughter with MS added to quadra palsy. I know now I could do something more for her to keep her enthusiasm with fishing. Thanks for great life mentoring lesson. I also hope you constantly to find adaptation to ever changing fishing conditions.
Wish you all the best.
Daniel

The Griffith Knat i

The Griffith Knat is definitely a killer fly Thank You Jim for all You do too educate us fly tiers on tying flies.I couldn't begin too tell You how much I've learned..Don. P Commerce Ga.

Stan,

I bought mi

Stan,

I bought mine in Denmark, but don't remember where. It should be widely available in different forms online and in physical shops, but a fair warning: it's totally useless for tying tube flies. The tube will come loose and spin freely on the mandrel no matter how much you tighten it.

Martin

Where can I purchase

Where can I purchase the Indian Tube Tool??
