thanks for more links and images. i’ll try to tie some of them on the plane going out there since i can’t bring a 5th anymore
as for presentation, my buddy is going to build me a 10′ 4pc 5wt this weekend and bring it up to the condo when we fish!
are you fishing from shore or a boat?
as these fish are stockies they are trying to figure out what is edible and what is not in their new home.this could work in your favor as they might be more likely to put your fly in their mouth to see if it is food or not. lake fish are different than stream fish in that they are on the move looking for food-rather than food coming down to them.
get some smalll, flashy,
i started to tie some more detailed midges. we’ll see if the bling variable makes a difference.
had to break out the renzetti to do this. does this thread now belong in fly tying?
48 hours till my flight !

books.google.com/books?isbn=0521578906…i’m going to give dr jones a bath tomorrow night, first time doing this to him.
we’ll see how much he fears the tub. i’m assuming he’ll be pissed at me.
if the bath goes successful then we’ll take him camping on a float this summer and get him in the rappahannock, knowing we can get river stink off of him.
this is sinbad, my freind’s dog during the 49″ of snow last feb in pulaski. dr jones was at the cabin in bed. once sinbad found all of the sticks he started to pull rocks out of the river for me to throw.
