So did that Ageless Beauty cream not work for you?.....lol. I'll send you a box of Depends instead....haha.

NIce tie guys. I've never used bucktail jigs so never tied them up. All it would take for me to change my mind is a hit and I'll be tying them up too......lol.

You would be if the girls were NAKED!!!!!!!!........ ;)

One of the biots broke while I tied it....SOB. :oops: But the thorax is the first tube I've tied and is weighted just as the abdomen is. Total length is about 2 1/2 inches. So part tube part articulated fly. Where's the bass...dam it.....lol.

He did a couple of episodes in India. It should have beed called India Sportfishing......lol. The fishergirl's should be topless or in bikinis........... :shock: then I'll watch and pay attention to the show......lol.

I stopped off at the dollarama looking for some kinda box to store flies that I've tied and about to. Well in the baby item section you'll see baby wipe boxes, one blue and one pink. The box is empty but I've found that if you get their weather stripping foam; it comes in a roll about 1 cm...

Chase is that a pic of Nigronia Serricornis? It looks like it is, only I can't confirm it's max size in Ont is 4". Corydalus Cornutus is suppose to reach 9cm 3 1/2", Ontario's second most common Hellgrammite. That fly looks great, but a long hook like that gives the fish alot of leverage to...

I have'nt seen a decent hellgrammite pattern, most of them look closer to a bugger (which is already so generic). Anyone have a good pattern? I'd bet my money on hell. Back, pratice casting and you'll be ready when the ice melts..... :D

I'm in the process of tying up some nymphs stones and caddis. I'll screen the trib bottom to see what's living there first, I just hope I've tied something that comes close to what's there.

3 guys/people is ideal, it was for me. We each had time to ask questions and Sheldon had time to watch each of us. He is very professional in mannerisim, skill and was very encouraging, everything you'd want and expect in an instructor. I think you guys will really enjoy the course. Cheers

Those are awesome looking. I've also seen the pack of 3 small pike. Very realistic looking, I always wondered if they would catch fish. $4 for only one seems kinda steep for a plastic. Thanks Fish for posting.

That's awesome that you are able to do tie and still keep it economical. I suggest you start a thread of the tools you got so others that are interested can follow your lead. My first vise from a Lebaron's kit broke 1 month after purchase.... ;) I was most likely putting way too much...

Here is a good primer on fly tying. http://www.flyanglersonline.com/flytying/beginners/

Did you miss my post on the fly tying course at Wilson's?.....lol. No matter, the first fly to tie in a kit's manual is the bugger. Tying your own is not cheaper. It all depends on the type of tool guy you are, like do you buy Bosch or Black and Decker. If you're a Bosch guy, tying will take...

I don't mind looking at the pics, but it's like Nick says, it's what you can't see that's the problem. The seller is not going to send you pics of rotting floor or transom, or close ups of hull repairs. Since about the early 80's boat makers discovered a method to use less resin to fibreglass...

OH man where ot start. I'm guessing it's a 20 year old fiberglass boat. Have you checked the floorboards, transom, hull, keel, all water entry points......etc. What make is it? If this was an aluminum hull I'd say go for it. Glass has good and bad, most bad, when it comes to...

Thanks Fish. The first link worked. These are the ones I see all the time at CT. They are the best looking, most realistic plastics around, as far as I have seen. I'am curious to see how these would work on the alabama rig that I just made. Have you tried them?

Nice catches.

Yeah they been around a long time. 20 years ago I got some at the Sportsman Show. I still find Mr. Twister better colors and action. Maybe Northland has improved, I have'nt checked them out lately. The fact that they are still around they must have good lures. Try them out let me know...

Was told that last night. Maybe the guy had his LT on the ice posting it, now he on the bottom of the lake....lol.
