Seafood (man I do miss Rodney Dangerfield, hahaha),
I struggled with the blood knot for a long time and had almost given up.
Stephen,
This is a good topic and we discussed it earlier in the fall http://www.itinerantangler.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1192473241/11#11
I started tying my own leaders recently with the help of some guys from this site.
Forgot to mention . . . The jacket is shown with a velcroe fly holder on the front left pocket on the CV webpage, my jacket did not have this feature.
Cameron,
I took a closer look at that those awesome midge boxes you posted on the first page. I noticed that you don’t have any midge hook threaders. I find the threaders to be invaluable when fishing midges which is usually in colder weather with cold fingertips.
I also enjoyed your article on midge fishing and midge fly boxes http://www.flyfishohio.com/Fly_Box_Porn_Cameron.htm.
Mike,
It is a good idea to listen to guys like Joel and other guides, they are very knowledgeable when it comes to technical questions like yours.
For completeness of the thread let’s not forget Rim Chung’s RS2 (Rim’s Semblance #2). It is my understanding that he only fishes this one fly! There are a few guys out there who only carry one box of RS2 flies and maybe one or two other patterns like it but they truly understand how to fish it in ALL situations and their casting skills allow them to do so. Just some food for thought.
